Beremx:
other ethnic groups will keep committing crimes in SW just as Nigerians are committing crimes abroad. That's the cycle of criminality

True however those other ethnic group have no right to criticize a government that is working if they know they are the ones destroying the place

Even Buhari was not this stupid.d. What is the point of ministry of Agriculture ? Maybe we should have ministry of crops etc.

You could have created a department or mda for that not a whole ministry.

Stu.pid country with stu.pid leaders

He mentioned you are jealous of him. Is it true and what gave him the impression.

How did you guys meet ?

santaclaws:
And shared among APC members?

Mass housing that you guys do but won't consider your own Lagos state government staff. How many teachers in Lagos can afford this apartment based on their Lagos govt salary? Keep deceiving yourselves.

The Yorubas who are supposed to vote for you are now forced to live in Ogun state cos you won't provide affordable housing, not even for your own staff. Igbos will produce governors in Lagos very soon and there's nothing anyone can do about it . Keep sharing everything among your party members, you will vote for yourselves in the next election.

Ok

So many are mad. Bini not Benin

Kingdom not empire

Your bini influence no pass 3 local government.

Tired of all these stu.pid people

“Oba is royal father to all”.

If someone says I am the royal father, does that not confer the citizens the right to claim that the same Oba is their father?

If the Oba of Benin is not “all Obas”, what then is the difference between him and other Kings, reigning over their own pictures?

With due respect to the Oba, Mr. Akpata did not by any means infer by his words that the Oba was his biological father. Neither did he in anyway disrespect the King. Such matters should not have gone to the press. The spokesperson from the palace should have called Akpata personally to notify him of an error, if any. He accorded the Oba the dignity and honor due to him. The palace was too quick to denounce him, making it look like something was transpiring politically. Kings are supposed to be impartial in political matters, but as we know in our country, they always have their preferred candidates.

Can we say that Akpata does not know the culture? Certainly someone would guide him or the entourage while visiting the Oba appropriately, telling him the words to say and how to conduct himself before the Oba.

Once I was in the palace of the Oba of Lagos. I had an injury and I was walking with a stick. The palace guards accosted me and asked me if I was a traditional Chief from my area. When I said No, the man insisted that I must not use the walking stick inside the palace, as one without a title. I respected the culture.

I think the Oba’s people over reached themselves. In all, we must not let politics cause so much division among us, no matter where we come from.

Facts. Wisdom is profitable

These bini people dey mad true true

FourQu:
Shhhhh 🤫 calm down

Allow yorubas claim edo in nigeria and edo in Japan quietly

Honestly this map makes sense

kapelvej:
Oba has no father Oba has no brother or sisters or mother. Oba only has children.

You know the Oba just created himself. Ozuwo

Honestly this is one of the most useless Oba ever. Abeg Seun we are tired of this nonsense on fb. These people are just 3 local government area and they are distributing Nigerians

Seun Osewa can this topic get to the front page now. It is over 11 years.

Ikwerri are Igbos abeg. No bring confusion to people

The Op is NOT a yoruba person

BREAKING: Ownership Crisis Rocks Benin City as Igodomigodo Asks Oba of Benin to Return To Ile-Ife

Reportgist
Apr 5, 2024

There is a renewed crisis grooming from the state capital of Edo State, Benin City, as the acclaimed original indigenes of Benin City ask the Oba of Benin to return to Ile-Ife, his original abode or continue to pay tax to them according to a cited treaty.

According to a story being trended by some people from Igodomigodo under the leadership of Ogie Dr. Richard Arisco Ogiamien, Benin City had been led for the past centuries by Yoruba people who invaded their land Ian 1170 AD.

It was claimed that the Ogiamen family of Igodomigodo predate the war, living in the area before it was forcefully taken by the Yoruba warriors who came from Ile-Ife.

The story claimed that after several years of the war, a treaty was agreed to at Ekioppagha which mandated Benin people to pay tax to the Ogiamen Royal family. The royal family is now asking for the tax to resume from the Benin people or they should retake their familiarities to Ile-Ife and vacate the stool of the Oba of Benin.

A message from a Benin Aborigine concerning the grooming crisis read:

“In 1170 AD, a warrior prince from the Yoruba kingdom of Ile-Ife named Oranmiyan invaded our land of Igodomigodo with his warriors, horsemen, and medicine men.

“At that time, we, the Ogiamien family, were reigning as Ogiso. The war spanned many years and claimed countless lives, leading to a treaty at Ekiokpagha, where an oath was sworn.

“According to this agreement, the Yoruba Oba of Ile-Ibinu, later known as Ibini and eventually corrupted to Benin, would pay the Ogiamien Royal family annual bounty in goods and taxes. This property tax was faithfully paid to the Ogiamien.

“Now, in the 2020s, I reflect on how these same Yoruba people who once invaded our land in 1170 AD are claiming descent from our Ogiso family. The Obas of Benin are asserting connections to our Idu family and heritage while denying their Yoruba lineage.

“One may ask: are the Yoruba Benin Obas and their chiefs ashamed of their Yoruba ancestry? Oba Ewuare II, for instance, is an Ile-Ibinu Yoruba king from Ile-Ife.

“Why then do these Yoruba individuals refer to themselves as Idu people from Igodomigodo? The notion of Ekhalederan turning into Oduduwa is a fabrication concocted by the late Oba Erediauwa and has no historical basis.

“The Ekhalederan we recognize was not a missing prince but a figure who lived, died, and was buried in Ughoton. Our Ogiso Owodo was without children.

“Therefore, Oba Ewuare and all past Obas of Benin trace their lineage to a Yoruba prince of Ile-Ife.

“The Yoruba Obas of Ile-Ibinu, now referred to as Benin, are not indigenous to our Igodomigodo land. If they are unable to fulfill their property tax obligations to the Ogiamien Royal family of Igodomigodo, they should return to Ile-Ife.

“Let us stand united behind our true ancestral king of Igodomigodo, Ogie Dr. Richard Arisco Ogiamien, and work towards the greatness of Igodomigodo once again. Ogiamien gator kpere, isee!!!
