Oga SE poverty is high but it is 0.5% lower than SW poverty and if you remove Lagos, the SW becomes extremely poor. Ogun state has a high IGR but almost everyone is poor. Anambra has a very low IGR but only 37% is poor. Who is the dummie?
50% of the entire SW is poor. Without Lagos, this number jumps to more than 60%. 49.5% of the entire SE is poor. Both are terrible results but clearly one is better.

pls check the stats very well, I don't have the time to screenshot, the SE has more poor people than the SW. There are more MPI in the SE than SW.. South West is the least poor region in the country even with it's larger population than your region and decades of regression thanks to the unitary system.
I don't want to insult pls let's not go that lane, bcuz clearly you're the dumbo, Ogun has more population than Anambra and is more cosmopolitan than the east. How many non-igbos are in Anambra compared to the non-yorubas in Ogun? Also I don't understand what you mean by if you remove lagos... Ondo state is actually the least poor state, Ekiti and Osun even though the lowest FAAC in the South has less poor people compared to Enugwu, Imo, Ebonyi. You should be more concerned about your region abeg.

tctrills:
Let me add one more point, That the SE has the least poverty in Nigeria is a miracle. That zone is supposed to be by far the poorest. In 1970, it was by far the poorest and the SW zone has always been richer. Instead of you to be asking what when wrong in the SW, you blame it on the Igbos as if the Igbos are the people in your villages. Unless you stop your Igbo hate, you would keep falling into poverty because rather than stop the problem, you keep blaming others. The Igbos are not your problem and they have never been.

oga gtf out of here, you accuse someone of hating your tribe when they call out your hate and bile. Before the war started the Western Region was better than other regions and as much as they have regressed today their region are still better than yours. You don't need to tell me what's wrong with SW, like I said focus on your own region, I'm sure you're based someone in SW.... We know our problem, we know the bastards that truncated our regional system of gov in 1966 with Decree 34. We will fix this when BAT becomes the president, I don't have your tribe, I don't understand your fixation about my region when yours is poorer in all standards.

tctrills:
It is either you are being intentionally dubious or you are poorly informed. Lagos has the Highest cosmopolitan population. It is also the state with the highest population of non-Yorubas yet it has only 27% poverty. How come the influx is making Lagos rich and Ogun very poor? Don't you see that something is wrong with you?
Also, rural poverty is far worse in rural areas than in cosmopolitan areas. I own a food logistics business. I constantly travel to the extremely poor villages of the SW.
I have seen rural poverty and I know how bad it is.
The truth is that the so-called leeches have increased the wealth of your state. Extreme poverty is not in Sagamu, Ijebu-Ode, and Abeokuta. Rather it is in Owode, Odeda, and Ipokia.
Again how come Anambra with a poverty rate that is half that of Ogun is the cause of your poverty? If you want to know the cause of SW poverty, ask me and I would tell you for free.
My workers just came back from Alabata, a town in Odeda LGA. It's full of poor people like all other rural areas in Ogun.

I agree with you that Ogun west area is the poorest but this doesn't negate the fact that non-yorubas trooping in into the state everyday contributes to it's problem.

Don't bother to talk about SW poverty, focus on that of SE which is scarier than ours, I've been across the east, all I'll say is may God take control. Anambra is not the only state in the east, there are several from other states trooping in everyday. Also Lagos is not the least poor in SW but Ondo... Osun and Ekiti has less poverty than Imo, Enugwu, Ebonyi. Oyo with over 10m people has less poverty than Enugwu, Ebonyi. With a population of about 21m and almost homogeneous region, I thunk you should be more concerned about your region instead of Ogun. Ogun is still more industrialized, urbanised, better health care and larger IGR than your region. Go and check the new stats, HDI in Ogun state is still bigger than any state in the east. From access to water, to access to easier healthcare, less unemployment, better security, more internet access, and so on.

tctrills:
Actually, there is much more poverty in Ogun than in Anambra so clearly, the huge IGR is not making any difference. Which is more important to you, high IGR or low poverty? Maybe you should stop over-taxing your people. You do not need a huge IGR you only need to use the little you have.

more poverty in Ogun than Anambra because of population. Ogun is becoming very Cosmopolitan, leeches keep jumping on midnight buses to come and live here. Sagamu, Ijebu-Ode, Abeokuta are receiving a lot of non-yorubas everyday and they are poor people who fled their regions.

Hpesoj:
Technically, yes.

why do some Nupes/Tapas not like Gbagyis? And what's the difference between Gbagyis and Gwaris?

Please enter street and see your rainbow colored mothers. Yoruba women are ewwww personified. It's either they are too dark and shaped like amoeba or their are fair with black knuckles and red in complexion.

Just disgusting. Is Olosho not derived from Yoruba culture to show you how loose and dirty your women are just like their wrapper. I read that yoruba women washing their wrappers in Lagos lagoon killed all the fishes there.

not a Osu miscreant like you talking about rainbow colour , I'm sure you're one of those 'Drug-dealing developers' somewhere in SE Asia and you haven't been to your blighted yEast in years, those akpu-smelling Osu dogs you call women bleach more than anyone else, majority are dark, overbloated, masculine hairy-like bush apes.

Imagine how low your IQ is to think olosho is part of a culture because they have a name of it. Everyone knows your women are the greatest degenerates in this part of the world. I will never let my dog touch those HIV infested loose filths you call women, go anywhere around the country, and other west Africa countries and see who dominates the brothels. There were fishes in our lagoon until we opened our borders and let in the Yeebos. Like I said, as long as this British jungle exist, your next president is Bola Ahmed Tinubu, get ready to commit suicide.

LadyExcellency:
What are advantages of bloated IGR in Economic development and Human development index?

Sometimes, I shake my head for ignorance and dumbness of Nairalanders.

TAX breaks and duty waiver are economic and political policies of a given government for economic growth and development.

Having money in the Accounts of individuals is better for the government than the opposite.

oga pls check the new stats in HDI and economic development, even with Yoruba regression the SW is far far developed than other regions in all indices. You can continue to deceive and console yourself, it doesn't change the fact that Ogun state has more IGR than the whole of SE.

Manofnaija:
See all the gibberish you vomited.
Tell me, what less do expect from capital city of a country? Ogun state is benefiting due to it's nearness to the capital.
Moreover, Ibos contribute to over 50% of the assumed IGR in these states.
FG creates bottle necks in eastern development because of their fears. Like the Calabar and Warri sea ports.
Let FG make one of the eastern states capital of Nigeria and see what they will become in 10 years

only Lagos island was the capital and it stopped being the capital decades ago. Ibos are actually a net loss to us in our region with their 2by2 shops, you don't contribute anything tangible anywhere, why your whole region still has IGR less than Ogun state?

FG creates bottlenecks in east because of fears?? you people are very deluded. No other administration has done for the east as much as Buhari even if I don't like him. And Calabar and Warri ports does not belong to you land grabbing miscreants. Iboland is landlocked. The Minorities in Niger Delta are not easterners

Racoon:
An Igbo man joining to in this kind of despicable and abominable act is nauseating. He should be taking to the village square or Igwe Palace, stripped and flogged mercilessly then banished from his community. Useless man!

it happens in Igboland a lot na. Just 2 weeks ago, we heard 2 crazy experiences.

My account was temporarily suspended, but I was able to read your contributions, well done.

The only point I wanted to add is that Edo/Benin have nothing to drag with any other tribes. Our ancestors have left us a great legacy that the rest of the world are now committing resources to study.

The study of Benin kingdom has now been incorporated into the UK secondary schools curriculum to give all black students irrespective of countries of origin a sense of belonging, inclusion and pride in themselves. Benin kingdom is the only kingdom in Nigeria that have enough authentic materials to be studied.

Whilst Benin history is deliberately being undermine by some of our jealous neighbours, the rest of the world see Benin as the leading light for the black race historically. Locally halve baked scholars can continue to write fictions that the word doesn't take notice off.

It is Gbagyi not Gwari. The latter is derogatory.

Thank you.

Are you Gbagyi?

UGBE634:
That's true, because yoruba as a group is far larger than Binis, but by a mile Bini is by far the most travelled minority when compared to any other minority. If Binis were up to the population of yoruba and Igbo, the western world would have shut their borders to us. Bro there is literally no household where a Bini is not abroad, I have seen a household with about 25 people, they have about 15 abroad.

you cannot give what you don't have, Ekiti is young, just there and recent, it is not a major population centre. There is no state in the south that does not have voters apathy. A state that did Nine hundred thousand in 2019 and repeated that feat with a few thousand is around that strength, It is at most three times the voters registration strength. And it seems to be even when it is a federal election that is coming forth. Where we can pardon apathy, for example is maybe a gap of 50,000 to 100,000 thousand. But when there is a gap of about 400,000 or 600,000 in a voters register and it happened twice in two subsequent voters registration exercise. then it is very certain that the leading state is more numerous.

but the same Osun state was adjudged more numerous than Edo state in 2006. the same Census you want me to trust. is it not you that is saying it now that you Know Edo is more numerous than Osun, is that what is there in the population census. No

Then you are also underestimating the population of Binis from other Benin communities in Benin city.Also you are neglecting the fact or you are getting to forget that the cities or towns or villages that Bini city is expanding into are Original Bini villages. These are Original Villages inhabited by Bini people that Bini city has expanded into their population also would count.

There are three factors you should look at here,(1) the original indigenes of Bini city who are Binis themselves, (2)those of us from other Bini communities that are now resident in Benin city (3) The indigenes of the communities, Bini city is presently expanding into. 60 percent of Benin city is still Benin- populated. And do not also forget that figures from those interior Bini communities I earlier listed in the other post would also add to it and it would count, as the voters registration number is for the entire Edo south, not Benin- city alone

I make bold to say out of that 1.3 million, at least 800,000-900,000 of that number would still be Binis

Yes Nin would make sense if you have access to the database.

You are underestimating the population of Binis outside the shores, The Binis that left Benin in 2017 two years after Buhari came into power, I can tell you it is over a hundred thousand. Today I can practically tell you that there is no household in Benin that does not have someone outside the shores of Nigeria, I mean Europe. I personally have four bethren outside the country out of a family of sixteen children, I have seen a family of about 30 with about half of that number abroad. we have about one third of Binis outside the country. The population of Binis in Germany is even more than the Binis in spain right now.

yes and there are also many Binis in south Africa. I still believe we can't rely on Census and Voters registration though. Voters registration is better than the fraudulent Census but NIN is more reliable. Pls which ethnic group does Binis intermarry with the most apart from other Edo tribes? Yoruba or Uhrobo or ibos?

UGBE634:
you are welcome man, my pleasure

pls can you teach me how to mention someone on this forum? I mean how to tag and mention a moniker.

samuk:
You are right, Nairaland is just for a laugh and fun, Benin history is world history. Nigeria definitely have an expiring date, the country cannot continue like this, there is going to be a major restructuring or everyone go their separate way.

not restructuring but seperation, I totally agree that Edo people have a good history and culture and nigeria holds them down, we need to end this British contraption so that we can grow and develop in our own pace. I as a Yoruba can't wait to see the zoo disintegrate.

UGBE634:
Yes now, till today my father still have some subtle beef for the late king as a result, when we discuss politics, he usually brings it in once or twice, saying he has helped drag Edo back because of his interest. If it is some other tribe, Urhonigbe would just be a local government of his own, it is a large town with ten quarters

wow that is something I never knew about Edo, thanks for explaining. Same happened here in Ogun among ijebus, the awujale was against more LGs. Do you think Esans will have their own state in the future?

INDOMIE9090:
he be like say god wan punish you for all this your ipob bureau news propaganda,I be confirm ijebu guy.
If we are not yoruba,we are osu abi?
Thunder fire you

I'm ijebu too it's funny how he thinks we are not yoruba but they won't stop attacking Awolowo and call him 'evil Yoruba man'

ariesbull:
Even among the Ijebus, there are conflicting claims to the source of origin depending on the political intention of those concerned. Irrespective of these claims, the Ijebus are united under the leadership of the Awujale of Ijebuland and this unity is the strength of the people as exhibited by their achievements in the past 40 years of the reign of Oba Sikiru Adetona, Ogbagba II.

Dude wtf I am literally ijebu are you trying to tell me my identity? Why do you like projecting your problems on us?? Does it make sense to you that we are from Susan in east Africa? Did you read the details.... HRH Awujale is a first class king in Yorubaland and he promotes Yoruba unity. Funny how you mention ijebu but still hate Awolowo an ijebu man and see him as Yoruba.

You know I can start coming with SS and videos of Aniomas denying their roots? You can deny and project as much as you want, it won't change the fact that you know how they deny their roots and even claim Benin ancestry. I once met a Chinedu who said he is Delta ibo but his ancestors migrated from Benin.

Rotimi amaechi is a politician, you know they say this kind of things for political reasons, Ikwerres have made it clear they are not Ibos, and Wike even murdered several Ipob members when they tried to disturb Oyigbo people.

In that link, the eight paragraph, you will find the landmass and the population of the town called Urhonigbe, as at the year 2000, the population of the town according to the researcher was close to a hundred thousand, so it safe to say in 2022, that the town cannot be less than 100,000. This is just one of the large towns in Orhiowmon. Oza Aibiokunla is also very large and close to this figure, even Abudu the local government headquarter could pass for a city of its own, And they are all in Orhiowmon, Orhiowmon is not even Urban, she is not connected to the city at all. There are several smaller Bini communities in this large local government of about 10 thousand and above like Ugo, Egbokor ,Ugboko nimagbae etc. This local government is 2300 km square. This local government it is safe to say cannot be less than 350,000 to 400,000 in population and it is largely rural

Igboid- I once quoted the size of Urhonigbe and the population, I have been looking for the link, I finally found it, I came across it some donkey years ago

Banyxchi-This is the major town I quoted for you yesterday. That is the link up there, I might bring up the Abudu link sometime later. The local government of the Binis Even the rural ones are averagely larger than local government elsewhere. The Oba of Benin at the time did not want the partition of local government at the time so there won't Arise small independent kings and chiefdoms elsewhere. Local government gives some form of independence. According to his exact statement in the nineties, "make una nor share Bini for my hand".

As at the time, the Okaevbo of Urhonigbe was ever ready to gain or get some level of autonomy from the Oba, Even the Esama wanted to become a king in Benin in the nineties, it did not work out, then he opted for the creation of several local government at the time so that he could become a king in his Okada and environ, Aikhomu was his very close friends, as he had connections as at the time even now. The Oba of Benin spoke and work against it and it died a natural death. Aikhomu who had wanted to partition Edo south Into several local government because of its size as it is about 10,700km square( the landmass of the Binis is close to 60 percent of the landmass of Edo state) but was not given the go ahead by the Oba, then went to his Edo central that is one third of the landmass of the Binis and partitioned it into five local government.

Banyxchi- the town called Okada is in Ovia north east, and this town was about 78,000 in 2011. Today it should be about 90 or about 100,000 now and it just two wards in Ovia north east local government. The town Okada is also not connected to the city at all and it is largely rural. I have been able to convince you now of about 4 towns that cannot be less than 80,000 and more. Urhonigbe, Abudu, Oza, Okada. Urhonigbe and Okada should be at least 100,000. There are others in these seven local government with relative strength size of at least 50,000 . They're Ekiadolor, Ologbo,Ehor,Udo, Iguobazuwa,Usen. Ekiadolor and Ologbo would certainly be more, Ekiadolor cannot be less than 80 thousand in population. These communities are independent of the city and do not feed off it and they are all Bini speaking communities.

wow thanks for this. So I believe there are less LG to avoid small independence kings that might want to start problems? I just checked Edo state landmass and I think you right sha, Edo state is bigger than I thought, literally bigger than Ogun state.

ariesbull:
even badagry people aren't yoruba seff

Egun/Ogu people are part of the Gbe people in the same group with the Fon/Dahomies, Adjas, Mahins and so on. They are a product of the Yorubas that mixed with the Ewes and they fled from Allada to settle in badagry and other places because of wars and attacks from the Dahomies. Many were more yorubanized when they were under Oyo empire, but even still, many Ogu people will tell you they are Yoruba lol. I have Ogu friends from Ajase.

Why do ikwerres deny their Igbo roots?

ariesbull:
I am telling you a personal experience


even some Akoko.in Edo State said they aren't yoruba either

Akoko people are diverse oh, one of the most diverse and complicated tribe, no surprise because they are mixture of Yorubas and Edos from different clans that mixed together for Centuries with other native neighboring ethnic groups like Igalas, and even ebiras. If any Akoko man tells you he's not Yoruba then his ancestors is probably Edo. Majority of akoko-edos are still Yoruba though.

No Yoruba denies his roots, I've only seen that happen in the east.

UGBE634:
I as a Bini man, I can hear central Esan better than an Oyo man will hear Owo. By scholars the Esan language is regarded as dialects of Edo. The only change you get in most words in Esan and Edo is R and L in many of their words e.g Binis would say Odionwere, Esans would say Odionwele, etc. it is like that In most of their words with minor changes here and there. It is not a full language. It feeds off the Edo language. There is no statement an Esan man will make that I will not be able to make sense of

They saying they are not "Edo" is more of an Identity thing. There is Edo as a race, which comprise of Bini, Urhobo, Isoko , Owan, Degema, Engenni, Ososo, Uneme, Etsako, etc . My grandma was Esan, her immediate younger wife was Owan, when they speak these languages are not strange to me, because they are close languages and brothers,Infact I do hear a thing or two even in the furthest Edoid language as I have proven in a post I earlier made about Urhobo . But someone speaking yoruba or Igbo, it would seem like the person is speaking swahili. It takes some features for a language to be Edoid, structures and some words that would certainly not die, that would still be prevalent in all these languages Even in the furthest language.

there is Edo as the name of a tribe which is Bini. They saying they are not Edo means they are not the group called "Binis" nevertheless that does not mean they are not twin to Binis

The name we have for them is "Edo ni san fia "which means "Edos that fled into the Bush" that is how they got their new Identity.
They could not withstand the harsh laws that was made by Oba Ewuare at the time after the death of his two sons. That is how they got their name Esan.

Igueben their last clan is considered Bini by them. A Bini man will comprehend what an Igueben man is saying ninety percent

We have a saying in my place, Edo na ma ze se ore Esan. Which translates to mean Edo not spoken well is Esan. Fortunately to venerate our Elders, this post recognizes what our Elders have always known. "The Bini or Edo language together with the Esan dialect"

We essentially bear the same names too, There is no name a Bini man would bear that an Esan man can't bear, eg Osaze, etc, I mean the same names, infact you cannot differentiate an Esan man from a Bini man with the name, you have to ask him his tribe

With these few points of mine, I hope I have been able to convince you and not confuse you that we are essentially the same group with different name, with few difference in culture however that certifies us as different group

you explained in full details and i appreciate bro. Already, I know many of the things you explained here, you don't need to tell me Esan people are also Edo, I know they are Binis that went to form their own just few Centuries back, and I see the Esans, Afemais and Owans as part of the Edo nation, they all share the same history, culture, values, and the same language family. Same way I can hear some of the things a Igala and Itsekiri man says because we're the same language family 'Yoruboid'. If the British didn't invade, all the edoids will most likely be in thesame country that is not Nigeria today. I'm just wondering why Esans don't like identifying with Edos but just Esan. Isn't it like Egbas saying they are egbas not Yorubas? It just doesn't make sense. Why the division? All the Edo tribes should have united a long time ago. But they are still divided.

UGBE634:
I just thought I should add this now, to show you how huge our diasporan population is, 40 % of Bini commenters on this culture section are outside the shores. Areafada2 is in Uk, Sam-Uk is in Uk, the Oza-nogogo maths teacher that comes around regularly is in france, bokohalal was outside the shores at the time, certainly would still be there, mulattoclaro was in spain,most likely would still be there, papabrowne was in one of these western countries,most likely going to still be there physics was undergoing his PhD program in one of these western countries at the time. There might be others that did not really disclose where they stay in their comments. It certainly would be more than this, this post is restricted to my knowledge.

yes I know there are a lot of Binis in the diaspora, I come across many on tiktok.

UGBE634:
Binis themselves cannot be less than 4 million in population home and abroad. I don't think we can trust these censuses in Nigeria, a census in 2006 allocated 3.000,000 to the whole of Edo state in 2006 and 4,000,000 each to both Osun and Ondo which are Obviously smaller states cannot be trusted. Then just 13 years down the line, the state did Voters registration number 400,000 and 600,000 above Ondo and Osun state respectively. With even a lot of unregistered voters everywhere. voters registration is by far an authentic pointer to the population of these places, as there is nothing tied to it, there is nothing to gain In it as opposed to a population census which equals more figures,more resources allocated. Banyxchi



The voters registration in Ekiti in 2019 was about 900,000, that of Edo was 1.3 million, the four hundred thousand more population is more than enough to suffice for suffice for the migrant in Benin city. The Edos in diaspora would take out the Ekitis in Kwara state.

And also to suffice for the migrant population in Benin, we have alot of Migrant Bini population outside the country with a population of about 1.2 to 1.5 million. There are about a third of Binis outside the country, you know this already. The Obaseki family alone according to pedro Obaseki, is over a 100,000, regardless of the census conducted in Nigeria, we are aware of our population

This was the Otaru of Auchi canvassing for a separate state for Etsako and Esan people, In his own words, he said Edo south was big enough and Populated enough to stand alone. This was in 1996, Benin was never this urban, There is something the educated Otaru knows about the population of Bini that you an outsider is not in the know about. I am telling you if Edo state had been divided in 1996, 3 million would have still be allocated to Benin state and maybe 2 million to afemesan state which comprise of Esan and Afemai people, it would have been created if not for Anenih.

Before 1991, Bini would have been over 12 or 13 local government,in fact there was a scuffle in Benin- at the time between the Esama of Benin and the Oba of Benin, he had wanted the Obaship position over Benin, Then he asked for some separate local government, in his area, Okada and Environs obviously to reduce the strength of the Oba and make himself King in his environ. The Oba wade in and asked Aikhomu not to do any of such.

There is a pattern In Nigeria skewed towards subdueing the population of the minorities to allow for proper exaggeration of majority population. Read this article and see how Bini state was to be created in 1996! And how it was thwarted by Anenih, the same Bini you feel is not up to a million in 2022https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://guardian.ng/sunday-magazine/otaru-of-auchi-how-we-lost-out-in-the-bid-to-create-afemesan-state/&ved=2ahUKEwjpk5Ot_OL0AhWNxYUKHfaDDmoQFnoECAQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0LaFfDTyS-rnpL90Yyv0Qu

Thanks for taking your time to respond bro, I appreciate, but we still can't conclude with this sha. Yes I know Edo is obviously more populated than Osun, but at thesame time Edo has more migrants than Osun, I think you underestimate the population of non-indigenes in Edo Sha,Edo state is one of the most cosmopolitan states in the country with Deltans, Yorubas, Ibos, northerners,Igalas, ijaws and so on. Yes I agree we can't depend on the fraudulent census but at the same time we also can't conclude with voters registration because of non-indigenes and how some states always have Voters apathy. Maybe we can use NIN data?

Yes I know there are a lot of Binis across the country and diaspora but also there are Ekitis in the diaspora. Many of them also across the country and still spread into Kwara and Kogi. Are you sure the population outside the country is up to a milli? I estimate the population of Binis across Europe as about 200k or less, In UK Binis are not up to 30k, they are just few in France and Germany, but I know there are also a significant pop in Southern European countries like Spain, Italy. How do we get the statistics of about 1.2m? Yorubas have the highest pop in Western world while the Ibos in South East Asian countries. I believe we'll know more about the pop details next year after the census.

AreaFada2:
I was like UGBE634 9 to 11 years ago, believing that one can have a decent conversation with your likes. But no chance.

Chinua Achebe wrote that: "Aneke the bird said, ever since humans learnt to shoot without missing, it has also learnt to fly without perching".

The Wotowoto you are getting now is the result of the insults and abuse your SW people sowed here on NL trying to shout down Edo people. Enjoy the rofo rofo.

you're a grown up, stop acting like a kid. Wotowoto from your kind? You're funny sha. Like I said no one cares about y'all, I've seen more of your people in our business than vice versa, we don't have anything to do with y'all and I hope we can all go our separate ways soon. Imagine you thinking you can 'wotowoto' us, you minorities are funny sha

AreaFada2:
Lol. So you don't even know difference between fleeing and exile to Calabar?
I remember that Badagry and Epe were popular exile destinations for deposed Yoruba kings. No, you won't know such history.
As for bleeplogy, we all know na. Everyone sabi SW ladies as champions na. We all know. Haba! Even Igbo guys boast of how they bleep married women in SW here on NL. Even magun popularity in SW has a reason na.
As an Edo person, we forbid bleeping married women. So I have no such to talk about, otherwise I know my experience in Yorubaland (not Eastern Yorubaland) and I know how things went down. So just forget bleep matter. At least they are people's daughters, likely wives by now, some maybe even grandmother by now. So no details.

We wanted to avoid colonisation instead of having to breakaway later. Way ahead of others.

Well, if we didn't want Nigeria to exist, you don't have to be very smart to know that referendum to breakaway from SW was all we could do legally. And we did. When the chance to legally breakaway from 9ja comes, we will too.

Losing war to people with Superior firepower is no disgrace. Even today, Nigerian Army can't win a war against British Army. No change there. At least in 1897, the British had to go re-enforce with guns, more military to return to attack. Or you think Amotekun can defeat British Army in a war today?

Well, with 7LGA, we will develop faster. We did it 600 years ago already as documented by the Europeans. Today, Luxemburg and Monaco have better living standards than India, China, India, Nigeria, Russia and even most European nations. You can have a large Agbero, urchins and dregs country. Goodluck to you.

The girls you claim to have bleeped might just have used you to practice and later use it to earn big abroad, you never know.

I think one of you reported me lol. I couldn't reply yesterday. 'Exiled' sound like a cope word lol, he was forced and shamed to bow down and fled to Calabar. And btw there's no 1st class king sent to live in any epe or badagry. I don't know your point about kings being deposed. In the north, several emirs were also deposed.

SW women are champions? Oh c'mon stop that bro , the first thing Edo women especially the Bini fraction are synonymous to both locally and internationally is prostitution, escortees, strippers and other shits like that. They literally dominate everywhere in the country and other West African countries. Dude I lived in Edo for just 3 months and I can't write all I saw and went through there, your women are fucking wild bro! Whether young or old, single or married, you know well the largest and most organized se xx trafficking in the whole of Africa is in Edo state ran by Edo madams. Your women are made different tbf, and I know you know that, you're just being dishonest. There's no ibo guy with any married women here, SW women are more decent. Are you seriously talking about magun? I believe you must be a Benin man based outside the country, no Bini man will mention magun when it's everywhere in your state.

Forbid to bleep married women? Lol are you serious? Edo women are so loose that it took me less than 4 weeks to enter a married one loool, I have personal encounter with married women in your state. I think you're very detached away from the reality of your state or you are just denying the truth. Mercy Aigbe was literally fucking a married man when she was married herself.

Literally many ethnic groups fought against the Brits that forced them into this contraption, even the Ibos without any kingdom still fought against the Brits. The Yorubas, Hausa-fulanis, Kanuris all fought against British invasion so how is it special for you??

I'm glad to hear that, I've seen a lot of Binis preaching One Nigeria which breaks my heart because I believe they don't benefit anything from this contraption and we should go our separate ways because we have nothing in common.

Yes I believe smaller population means faster development and easier efficient governance. Also, the Ukwuanis, Ikas, Uhrobos, isokos might end up going with y'all so there's no wahala. But it's funny to see you mention Agberos when they are also in Edo state, many street urchins, yahoo boys, cultists, traffickers, ritualists, you have to deal with I also wish you luck with that.

Lol I can't believe you're defending international se xx trafficking, it's heartbreaking and terrifying.

Proud Omoluabi.

He's a real nigga. I'm glad to see our Nigerian brothers advancing the world.

We have many youths with great & brilliant minds wasting and fading away in this shit hole country. Many of our brilliant baby girls are now into hook-up while many of our handworking guys are into online bombers like me.

Nigeria system will never make your dreams come true. I'm a graduate in Electrical Engineering, I spend 5 good years in the university but Today I'm a proud online bomber.

Make my certificate just dey lie-down for my wardrobe, I'm gonna make use of my certificate to work probably in my next life. Bombing is the only way forward now.. No vex!

where are you from?

ariesbull:
okun person siad this personally to me

continue to project your problems on us, no Okun man denies his/her roots, they even begged to join the SW, go and verify.

Only in your tribe we hear of Ikwerres, Aniomas, Ikas all denying their roots and claiming Benin empire even when their names are Chukwudi, Chinedu

NJyoruba12:
Culture. yoruba are the face of nigeria culture

Not just culture but also real IP conglomerate businesses, education, also agriculture and any other thing that makes them happy to identify as nigerian. The democracy they enjoy today, the independence and many others things were from Yorubas, we control almost everything in the country. And those savages know that. So don't bother yourself.
