LordAdam16:
Like the British also did to the Ijaw king of Nembe!

Trust me, you don't want to go there.

-Lord

I get transport for two of us to go libya sef, take me there

LordAdam16:
Leave those people.

There are Urhobo, Itshekiri, Ika, amongst other minority communities in Edo State. All of them are lorded over by the Oba. Na only Ijaw want or deserve kingdom.

Why them wait till now to get kingdom. Them for try am before the British show, mk them sack their communities.

-Lord

Is it the same British that put ur oba in chains and killed him in exile?

PEOPLE AND DEMOGRAPHY
The main ethnic groups in Edo State are: Edos, Afemais, Esans, Owans and Akoko Edos. Virtually all the groups traced their origin to Benin City hence the dialects of the groups vary with their distance from Benin City. The Bini speaking people who occupy seven out of the 18 Local Government Areas of the state constitute 57.54% while others Esan (17.14%) Afemai compirising of Etsako (12.19%), Owan (7.43%), and Akoko Edo (5.70%). However, the Igbira speaking communities exist in Akoko Edo as well as Urhobos, Ijaws, Itsekiris communities in Ovia North East and South West Local Government Areas especially in the borderlands. Also, Ika speaking communities exist in Igbanke in Orhionmwon LGA.

craze dey like ijaw bioz by olamide

psychatric dey for benin land by osamede


neverthesless am a benin and i really want this fight i want the ijaws to teach the benis lessons because an average benin mans idea is to travel out of the country to go die for another mans land he doesnt see nigeria or even edo state as a place he can succeed u hardly find them in other state even in thier state thier economy is been controlled by non indigenes mostly ibos ...this are d advantages of over migration and lazyness on the benin thats why ijaws can claim gelegele because benins are not fishermen there only the ijaws so they can claim it and even fight for it because they have been there since what goes out and come in .in the river than the real owners Binis ...now they found oil oba whants to come and reclaim it by force aint done that way ...even if is an adopted child the real parents cant come and collect the child easily no it cant work ...it has to be a win -win for both parties and not war ..if is going to be a war sorry my brothers benins won't match with this people they have weapons than we are are they even a good number of youth population in benins presently that can fight for benins...no they aint all are in ghanas and libyas and italy ...

note :even benins decide to drive the ijaws the benin man is still very lazy to even work in the gelegele you will see other tribes dominitating it ..lets not even talk of the benin moat is nothing to write home about

lastly i will support a win - win for both party than war but enacting a king in benin who is not subjecting to the oba is a war already

historyworld030:
What this tells me is that it is high time to send the ijaw out of edo state. 21 days is more than enough to relocate them back to bayelsa.
Let them come and "storm", nobody is scared of death. We will storm them out of our state.
And I pity the fools who are allowing ijaw stay in their land, ijaws are criminals by nature and sooner or later they will start claiming your land, push them out as soon as possible. Get rid of the paraistes.

bright007:
You should ask yourself if your brain is working. Who brought about Libyan returnees into the discussion in the first place.

As for you inconsequential king , he hasn't been arrested because he has been humble ever since he was warned.
Very soon there will be a seaport in Gelegele and guess who takes royalties from there, the Oba of Benin and the state government.

It all seems settled why the continues protest of the Oba of bini, the Governor and the Libyan refugees

uzo4real:
Them dey give Oba ultimatum? I sorry for the whole Ijaw dem..

History will soon repeat itself

pedrilo:
be judge sir, we dnt speak the same language, our way of life is different from theirs, we occupy different senatorial district, the hav oba, we don't hav oba, governorship of the state is rotated between the 3 major tribes which are bini, esan and etsako.

You are the one spewing trash,remove ijaw from niger delta the region won't feel it an inch,Ijaws are the smallest minority in the niger delta, they are the armed rubbers and sea pirates we have in the region,you guys knows very well that you cannot stand face to face to make these your empty boast,we shall see when the time comes.

Ijaws are found in six states, Rivers, Delta, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom, Ondo and Edo state, how many states are bini people found?

smartolala:
Let them fight and install ijaw governor in rivers state first

Irrelevant to the discuss, Rivers state has had Ijaw governors and there isn't any administration that you wont have atleast a deputy governor in Rivers state

Dboyz:
Thank God for civilization, who are Jaws to challenge bini... they will snick into ur comunty in d name of fishin...latter farming....all of a sudden to be recognised in govt....all of a sudden they want their local govt. ...all of a sudden they want to install a long....all of a sudden. ...they will claim land...

Charly68:
[s]I think it is God that wants to make them mad in order to destroy them..threatening a king in his domain is simply suicidal[/s] ..

Rubbish, this is clearly in retaliation to the Anti-Ijaw protest by bini, their Oba and their Governor, what is an inconsequential rOba to Federal Government that the Ijaws hold to ransom

bright007:
You can keep trying to deviate from the subject of discussion. It doesn't change the fact that Obaseki as governor of Edo state will do the needful when the need arises.
Until you can produce a governor in Edo state who is ijaw , forget about having any headway in grabbing our land.

You always make shaky arguments, from talking about libyan edo returnees to talking of producing governor, anyways i'll bite, is the office of governor meant to be used as a tool to fight other indegenous ethnicities, the Ugly man can't do jack, why hasn't he arrested the Pere of olodiama kingdom as he claimed earlier, do you think we are in the 17th century

spartan117:
This statement can be considered as an act of terrorism

Like Anti-Ijaw protest or state government, Oba, legislative supporting the bini threats & Anti-Ijaw protests, this is in retaliation

pedrilo:
I repeat, the Ijaws should take note, bini kingdom is different from edo state, there is nothing like edo kingdom, bini kingdom is limited to edo south senatorial district, just so wen they start dealing with the binis.

Lol, but bini said esan and their likes are all one

The matter went through the High Court of Justice and Federal Court of Appeal in Benin and the Supreme Court -in Lagos.

The Benins secured victory all the way. The following suit numbers are material evidences to buttress our claim to the land at Gelegele and environs

1. High Court of Justice, Benin Judgment delivered on the 22nd December 1978 by .Justice. Ekeruche J in Suit No. B/I44/1970.

2. Federal Court of Appeal judgment delivered on the 16th December1981 by Abdul Ganiy Olatunji· Agbaja and 2 others in Suit No. FCA/B/82/80.

3. Supreme Court unanimous Judgment delivered on the 19th ‘August 1983 by Muhamedu Lawai Uwais, former Chief Justice of the Federation and 4 others in Suit No. SC.131/1982"

[/s]
All lies Gelegele is and will always be IJAW, I repeat their is no court case handing over gelegele Ijaw community to bini

EternalTruths:
The Binis should not allow the greed for oil & gas push them to try to steal the inheritance God gave to the Ijaws.


The Binis should be rest assured that disaster awaits them if they try to do so.

Gelegele is not a Bini word and history never recorded that Ijaws invaded Bini lands in the past.


If history is right, then Binis must ask themselves why their Forefathers never fought the Ijaws over Gelegele land for more than 1000 years of peaceful coexistence.

IT IS CLEAR THAT UGHOTON WAS THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN IJAW AND BINI:
"In the meantime he (Consul James Phillips) sent a message forward to the Oba, Benin's king, that his present mission was to discuss trade and peace and demanding admission to the territory in defiance of Benin law explicitly forbidding his entry. Unfortunately for Phillips, some Itsekiri trading chiefs sent a message to the Benin king that 'the white man is bringing war'.
On receiving the news the Benin king quickly summoned the city's high-ranking nobles for an emergency meeting, and during the discussions the Iyase, the commander in chief of the Benin Army argued that the British were planning a surprise attack and must be defeated. The Benin king however argued that the British should be allowed to enter the city so that it can be ascertained whether or not the visit was a friendly one. The Iyase ignored the king's views, and ordered the formation of a strike force that was commanded by the Ologbosere, a senior army commander, which was sent to Ughoton to destroy the invaders.
On 4 January 1897, the Benin strike force composed mainly of border guards and servants of some chiefs caught Phillips' column totally unprepared at Ugbine village near Ughoton. Since Phillips was not expecting any opposition and was unaware that his operation was being perceived with alarm in Benin, the contingent's only weapons, consisting of the officers' pistols, were locked up in the head packs of the African porters.[7] Only two British officers survived the annihilation of Phillips' expedition,[8] which became known as the 'Benin Massacre'."
NB: Please note very carefully that the Iyase (the Commander In Chief of the Bini Army) did not send his soldiers to Gelegelegbene or any other Ijaw Community but to Ughoton which is precisely a Bini Community and Ughoton till this day is the boundary between Ijaw and Bini which tells you that they know their boundary.

Because it was never theirs(bini) to begin with

if there has been a court judgment on this then everyone should obey the courts judgment and let peace reign there is too much violence and tension in this country already we no go rest ?

There has been no such court judgment, the libyan returnees are just spreading falsehood, here is a video when channels visited gelegele-Ijaw community

According to land grabbers like you, the judgement is parochial.

Three times you guys went to court over ownership of Gelegele and three times you were defeated.
Unfortunately, many of you can only come online chest-beating and play drums of war. After that, you go back into your hole and cool off .

At the moment, Gelegele is part and parcel of Benin Kingdom and everything be it man-made resources or natural resources in that land , the royalties due to the Oba of Benin gets to him whether you lots like it or not.

Wrong, there is no such judgment making the entire gelegele-Ijaw community part of bini, that's is total falsehood, gelegele is Ijaw and we continue to be till Jesus comes, channels went to gelegele and guess who they met there? IJAW people not even one single bini so all this claim of gelegele being bini is only on nairaland.com
Stop misinforming people gelegele is and will always be an Ijaw community
