Meet Prince Ekaladerhan of Benin, popularly known as Oduduwa infopowerng.comNov 30, 2023 11:37 PM Meet Prince Ekaladerhan of Benin, popularly known as Oduduwa Go and read the history book 📖 there was a prophesy that a man will come from foreign land to save ife from the great Oyó Empire. Ikaladeran the crown prince of Bini who left his kingdom with his full entourage was found in the forest of ife by hunters in his full regalia He was taken to the town and treated with respect and given a warm welcome, it was then he said “Izoduwa” meaning “I have reached home” they didn’t understand what he said because he was speaking Bini language. So all they heard was Oduduwa and that how his name came about. He helped them win their freedom from Oyo empire and was made king afterwards, he got married and had children. Many years later he was asked to come back and rule his people, he refused because of the dispute he had with them that made him leave in the first place. After much pressure he told them he is already an established king in ife with wives and children that it’s imposible to leave so he sent his 7th son Oromiyan to rule in his place because he was the only son not married as at then. As the Oba of Benin MUST marry a Bini princes. Before now the kings in Bini kingdom are called Ogiso not Oba, Oromiyan who came to the palace through Useh was given a wife by the leader in Useh community under Bini kingdom. Oromoiyan refused to be crowned Ogiso he said he prefers the name Oba, he later left because he felt the kingdom was too violent and warring, fortunately the wife he was given was pregnant, she gave birth to a male child who became the first Oba of Benin and not Ogiso of Ighodomighodo which was the real name . 4 Likes 1 Share

Lol Oduduwa's Ife precedes Oyo kingdom How can Benin send a prince to save Ife from Oyo that was non existent by the time of Oduduwa Infact Benin wasn't existing as a kingdom then because it was the same prince that established Benin kingdom that also established Oyo And the prince came from Ife (A descendant of Oduduwa) Oduduwa was long dead when Oyo was founded 35 Likes 3 Shares |

I wonder how some people don't use their brain when hearing gibberish. It was Ife which birthed Oyo empire. So what freedom are you even talking about? Lol 😂As a matter of fact, Oranmiyan was ruling Oyo and Bini at the same time but couldn't rule two at a time thus had to leave for Oyo, even though the Bini didn't want him to leave for Oyo, thus were angry after he left. Meanwhile, Oduduwa predates the whole existence of Bini. Before Ekaledehan who died in Ughoton was even born, Oduduwa already became an Ife king long ago. Oduduwa descended from Oke Ora to Ife to become the King after Obatala. Now, can you see the name "Oba"Tala? Ife birthed other towns. 23 Likes 3 Shares |

Okoroawusa: Shameless Yoruba man claiming Igbo ... this is definition of low self esteem. Spit ... most important thing is that the whole world is aware Lagos was founded by the Great Binis and the word Oba belong to the great Bini people not Yoruba, it was borrowed by the Yoruba. 10 Likes 1 Share |

illicit: You realise bini and other languages of southern Nigeria are from the Niger-Congo language family And yes there are converging linguistic links here and there For example Oba in ìgbo means Barn for yams and other produces Obà still means that plant used in making calabash So don't brag about origin of word with people you're in same language family with It ight mean something in their language you never can tell If na lie ask any Igbo person wetin Olaniyi means in Igbo you'll be shocked 2 Likes |

Neckpresser101: You are diverging Does Oba mean anything in Benin Language It's either yes or no Talking about Igbo Language is very irrelevant here Because Oba in Igbo doesn't mean what it means to the Benins or what it means in Yoruba, so it's out of point 👌 In Yoruba, O - ba means King, he who presides... In Benin, explain how oba means King, simple I am a Linguist 12 Likes 4 Shares |

If Ooni of Ife turns up in benin and Claims the Throne and Kingdom of benin he too is also right Ok, Let us look at the praise names of oba of benin One of it is Abieyuwa N'Ovbi Odua N'uhe The son of the wealthy Odua of Uhe(Ife). (Odua of Ife is the same as oduduwa of Ife) Another of oba of benin's praise names is Ovbi' Adimila The son of Adimila oduduwa was also known as Olofin Adimula Which was his Title Notice there is no mention at all of any Ekhalerderhan of Igodomigodo or izoduwa that got lost They did not remember or mention any Ekhalerderhan and izoduwa too is not happening anywhere in oba of benin's praise names but they called Oduduwa the great Odua of Ife his Father So with their own mouths they themselves have already given the evidence that fully demolished and destroyed their case which had no legs to stand on in the first place and have confirmed with your own Mouth that the oba of benin was indeed oduduwa's Son There is nothing left to drag because it is settled 15 Likes 4 Shares |

illicit: If you're a linguist you'd know that Words can be borrowed from people you've made contact with and doesn't necessarily means they don't have a word for it . They just prefer to use the borrowed word I had a conversation about this topic with my friend yesterday . He's actually a linguist , He said it's absolutely possible to replace a local word by a borrowed word from another neighbouring language. According to him it's called Lexical replacement or loan word replacement. It happens alot especially with society you've come in contact with and it's the basis of English language . English is 80+% loanwords! So what's the fuss about. |

Neckpresser101: Ok now When u loan a word from a language to call something It usually means that that same thing was not present in your environment before It's usually that you borrowed that thing and the name it's called If you have that thing before, you will have a name for it To the best of my knowledge, the benins used to have Ogiso, which is a duke When Yoruba introduced Kingship to them, the name came with it naturally ✌️ 8 Likes 2 Shares |
Re: Meet Prince Ekaladerhan Of Benin, Popularly Known As Oduduwa by Neckpresser101: 2:43pm On Dec 01, 2023 |
illicit: Not necessarily true For example I can say " That's your mom over there ọkwa ya? But I always prefer saying That's your mom over there abi? Abi is Yoruba word and ọkwa ya is igbo word for same thing 'right' It's just convinience I have seen Yorubas saying Biko alot that doesn't mean they don't have a word for 'please' It's just convnience. Again I might be wrong one thing I'm sure tho is oduduwa can not fall from the sky who knows Binis might be right saying he's Thier son . Binis might be wrong too sha who knows 1 Like |

illicit:Some borrow a word they have before and after sometimes the borrowed word become more popular. I'm not applying it to Ife/Benin wahala oo For example. In Igbo language Prostitute = Akwuna But yoruba word Ashewo which is pronounce as Ashawo in igbo accent is more popular. Even Flavor's song "Ashawo' was a hit 2 Likes |

Neckpresser101: Yeah That's why I said 'usually' Some words are just used because of its popular usage and acceptability But when u borrow a thing from a language, u often borrow the name with it, for example Pressing iron, in Yoruba it is still "Iron" Table is still Table or "Tabili' Sugar is sugar Block is block Pure water is usually pure water There is also agglutination (Linguistics) etc 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Ogene001:I disagree sir! While Ashewo is Yoruba word. Ashawo is a broken English word, that was borrowed from Ashewo. Ibos choose that word from the broken side of things. Yes broken English popularize Ashawo as the preferred word for prostitution. And broken English is not specific to Ibos, it’s spoken across west Africa. Even my Liberian and Sierra Leon friends use Ashawo without knowing its origin but know that it means prostitute. Ire o! 3 Likes 2 Shares |
