odigbosky:
I am not aware of the fact that Asoro was a general. He was a sword bearer. An Omo'ada.........This was what we were taught in school. He was not a member of the royal army either....but we all know that during wars all men are called on to serve.
alot of things are taught wrong in the benin history in schools asoro was never an omo 'ada he didnt even live in the palace atleast omo'ada never leaves the palace, agreed he wasnt a general in the royal army before the invasion but he was a warrior and later a general

How can you people believe a king is a "god" on earth and direct descendant of Osalobua the high God?
Isn't that an outrageous and stupid myth as well?
By the way, nobody "fell" from the sky in Yoruba mythology.

You Binis suffering from cognitive dissonance and attitudinal incongruity.
i am not her to drag superiority with brain washed afonja,, i'm only here to state that i know my history and i love every bit of it u can hang ur self for all i care u knw ur history i know mine, love urs like i love mine and we will have no problem...thank you sir

Like I said earlier, you Binis are as confused as hell.
aisagbonrioba, which means kings are predestine, in the benin empire we believe the king to be a GOD on earth at such he is of direct lineage to osalobua. he is a descendant of oghodua but it doesn't mean he fell from the sky even jesus christ didnt fall from the sky

honestly you guys are confusing huh
he was never a traitor read to learn he was unjustly exiled from his home..

They even said he founded Ile Ife, and that it was "Ilefe" which means some nonsense like that... i think they said "I have escaped" or something.
Only God can forgive you people.
funny u atleast we know of some one who born and exiled from his home, and became king some where else,,, unlike some people who actually believed a human fell from the sky,, atleast ours does not defy science nor does it defy religion,,, but bro some one came from the skyhuh grin with chains? even a new born baby knows thats impossible

Lol. Guy, personally I don't bloody care what y'all choose to believe, it's a free world. Yorubas are too big to be dragging history with an inconsequential relevance and attention-seeking small tribe. Nobody can rewrite history. Shiorr.

Maybe that is because you are still very young in the echelons of Benin revisionism, compared to your old grounded members cheesy
But trust me, we have heard all sort of names and appellations from Benin people, on this very forum, and elsewhere.

1st of all yes i'm young but it doesnt mean i haven't learnt enough to know about my history, secondly alot of writers has written about the benin empire from different views in modern days, each can write what they know or what they were told but as a benin i know my i history the way it is and i believe in it, imadoduwa has no meaning in benin quote me anywhere

Lol. That character of theirs changes like weather. They are not only confused about who he was, but are equally as confused about his name, the spelling, the era in which he lived. I bet you they are not even sure whether he was a man or woman. undecided lipsrsealed
funny how u yourobas like to drag argument into every issue that does not favour your history... well am not here to argue with u, so u best believe what ever u wish but as for the benin history, it is well stated to us with facts to back our claims...thanks

So Izoduwa is the actual Benin name nut they call him Ododua as written above?

Ok, how about the other one we often hear here.. "Imadoduwa"?

izoduwa happens to be the direct translation of the name oduduwa, in benin language

I thought the Benin people knew him ad Ekaladerhan and not Oduduwa naw.
he was known as ekaladeran who became oduduwa to the yourubas, buh the benins still respect the name he asked to be called..
CultureThe Odudua Mask by cue64(op): 10:07am On May 16, 2017
The mask seen here in the image below is an Ododua Mask created by the Benin people. Very similar in construction, this mask can easily be compared to other brass heads from the Benin people such as those that represent an Oba, or king. While other brass heads are for commemoration, this particular mask is used for spiritual purposes. Projections from the top are a dominant symbol of the vital force of a divine associate. The superstructure protruding toward the sky symbolizes the link between the world and the spirit world through which communication with the spirits occurs. Vertical projection identifies its bearer as a personification of the vertical axis. The person who wears the Ododua Mask bridges the gap between human and spirit realms

CultureGENERAL ASORO {the Great Benin Warrior} by cue64(op): 2:26pm On May 05, 2017
a valiant brave man who died resisting the invading British forces during the expedition of 1897.During the siege on Benin, it was said that general Asoro ably defended the spot where the statue now stands. He said "no other person dare pass this road unless the Oba" (So kpon Oba). It is this statement which has been corruptedo become SAKPONBA.This statue, which is a salute to patriotism and loyalty is located on the king's Square by the beginning of Sokponba Road,Benin City. The spot where chief Asoro have died after fighting bravely.
"Almost single-handedly, Asoro held the invader at bay for 5 days, defying blazing guns and ploughing maniacally into the enemies midst to deal out death and mutilation among them. Steeped to his back teeth in magic, Asoro would not fall to gun or sabre. His deadly poisoned arrows and his huge broad-sword hit their marks with devastating accuracy all around. When he fought in the midst of any of the enemy groups,He never left untill every man in it bit the dust.Then he moved on. There was only one condition he had to obey to in order to stay alive. It was that he should never looked back over his shoulder.Asoro fought and fought and fought. Then suddenly he quiver of arrows that hung from his shoulder seemed to have been snatched away.He looked right and left but could not find it.The pressure was on him from all directions.Inadvertently,he looked back on his shoulder and saw Ofoe" which in benin means {the messenger of death}
and after days of fight he was finally brought down in the exact location were his statue is located today in modern day benin, which led to the final invasion of the kings square.
rumor has it that both ASORO and his counterpart EBE-IKHIMWIN were responsible for the death of more than five thousand British soldiers...
