Simbrixton:
so u dont know? ask them what is Obayantor in Benin language Otenwem you are doing a good job 15 percent of binis have yoruba ancestry both from oranmiyan days and modern day you wont understand until you live in benin

TAO11:
You shot yourself in the skull with you distractive screenshot.

This is forever on the internet from this thread. This is sweet.

Go and dethrone him na.

TAO11:
I am glad that you’ve agreed with me that:

(1) Ewuare is a fairytale.

(2) Non-Fiction Benin kingdom started in c.1850

Cry me five different oceans.


I am also glad that that your distractive screenshot says that Binis LIED about conquering Lagos.

Everyone now agrees that Binis are liars. Thank you for this.

TAO11:
Listen up @gregyboy aka @Edeyoung.

Ewuare is a fairytale.

Non-Fiction Benin kingdom started in c.1850

Cry me five different oceans.

TAO11:
Adolo actually would be their revised first Oba of Benin.

He is the first for which there is an eyewitness written account of his existence from his time.

Benin kingdom therefore really began as an actual non-fiction kingdom in circa 1850.

This right here is the funniest shit ever.

TAO11:
Imagine the bitter hot tears flowing from @gregyboy aka @Edeyoung

UGBE634, is it true that you’re not a Bini but Yoruba?

TAO11:
UGBE634, gregyboy is crying bitterly oo.

He said you’re a Yoruba and not a Bini. Is that true?

TAO11:
Your brother said you’re a SLAVE of the Yoruba-Oba of Benin. Agree or disagree?

Go settle your internal struggle with him. Pick a date, time, and location.

TAO11:
No, there are free borns in Benin. Tyler Oba’s family members from Ife, Umogun, are free borns.

Both the common folks whom they met in Benin are the Oba’s slaves.

But let me ask if @Etrusen, @gregyboy, and @Truthshots2 are proudly slaves of the Yoruba-Oba of Benin?

I need answers NOW

TAO11:
The very CRAP that I was expecting from you.

The Roupell list is the only list compiled in the 1800 — 1897-8 to be precise.

And there no mention of the fairytale EWUARE on the list.

Or are you so dyslexiac to not realize the non-congruence and non-similarity between the ‘fairytale’ EWUARE and another fairytale EBOWANI.

Talbot’s list on the other hand was compiled in the 1920s. The fairytale appears to have been coined in the 1920s

Egharevba’s list on the other hand was compiled circa 1940s.

Your screenshot as a whole is from Bradbury’s 1959

TAO11:
Yes, there is no NO such 1800 eUroPean or even cHinEse account which says a thing per ‘fairytale’ Ewuare!

Also there is no eYeWinTness writing which says a thing per ‘fairytale’ Ewuare.

So, both!

The fact that they saw obas and NEVER once mentioned Ewuare (or any of the several fairytales) makes your case even worse.

The Europeans’ presence in Benin, their meeting with the obas [while writing many things without saying one about fairytale Ewuare (or the other fairytales)] already makes it more certain that all these names and their stories are nothing but [b]Disney Cartoon[/b]s.

TAO11:
Did you just say eYewItnEss account is not your standard?

You want Truthshots2 (your oga) to call you stupid? Remeber he once said you lack the ability to use your brain.


Having a said that, there is NO 1800s writing for fairytale Ewuare.

Also, there is NO eYeWitNess account of the following Benin ‘fairytales’:

Eweka I, Uwuakhuahen, Ehenmihen, Ewedo, Oguola, Edoni, Udagbedo, Ohen, Egbeka, Orobiru, Uwaifiokun, Ezoti, Olua, Ozolua, Esigie, Orhogbua, Ehengbuda, Ohuan, Ohenzae, Akenkpaye, Akengbedo, Ore-Oghene, Ewuakpe, Ozuere, Akenzua I, Eresoyen, Akengbuda, Obanosa, Ogbebo, and Osemwende.

TAO11:
Ewuare is said to have lived centuries before 1800. There is therefore zero eyewitness writing.

And there is no such 1800 evidence to even start with.

So, Ewuare is a fairytale per all of your own standards.


I will only if you can even match what I have already done for Oranmiyan.

Name the different groups that attest to the following Benin ‘fairytales’:

Ewuare 1, Eweka I, Uwuakhuahen, Ehenmihen, Ewedo, Oguola, Edoni, Udagbedo, Ohen, Egbeka, Orobiru, Uwaifiokun, Ezoti, Olua, Ozolua, Esigie, Orhogbua, Ehengbuda, Ohuan, Ohenzae, Akenkpaye, Akengbedo, Ore-Oghene, Ewuakpe, Ozuere, Akenzua I, Eresoyen, Akengbuda, Obanosa, Ogbebo, and Osemwende.

macof:


You are always claiming anything not written by European eye witnesses is fairytale. You don't get to make exception for Ewuare. Present an eye witness account or keep shut
The first "Oba" of Benin is Ovoranmwen if we go by your stupid logic

nisai:
The ones she's been spoon feeding you with what good have you made of it. We are now convinced that your brain cannot digest tested, peer reviewed and proven evidence.

She might provide evidence but for the open minded readers not block heads and petty revisionists like you.

TAO11:
There is NONE.

Plus fairytale Ewuare is thought to have lived centuries before the 1800.

nisai:
Gregyboy, you are a clown!

TAO11:
Why should I prove that Ewuare 1 is not the ‘fairytale’ that he is.

Or the following fairytales?:

TAO11:
Another load of TRASH as expected.

nisai:
His writing style and dumbness will always give him out as a 'originally Gegyboy'. Lol.

Simbrixton:
there are bini people in opc just like dere are many binis today that are ancestrally yorubas he doesn't know what he is saying

Truthshots2:


Until the 1930's, Yoruba monarchs were not addressed as Oba. Every text published before the 1930's which talk about any given yoruba monarch do not address him as "Oba".
The first yoruba monarch to be addressed as "Oba" is adesoji aderemi who was not addressed as such in the beginning of his reign and only stole the title towards the mid to end of his reign and the other yoruba monarchs copied his copying.

That is why the date of publication of a paper is very important: it is a way to weed out revisionism.

TAO11:
Yawns!

By the way, why did you sign out from your @gregyboy account?

TAO11:

Benin boy pretending to be dumb, or is he truly dumb?

Explaining what you probably already know:
Asiri magazine (a modern magazine) posted it on its social media page before someone else claims credit.

Also, only British Knights are referred to as “Sir” by the British. Oba Adekoya was apparently NOT yet knighted by that year —1937

You are clearly too stupid to be alive.

TAO11:
Because he conquered your daddies and mommies?


His name wasn’t written down by his family members, his friends, and his visitors.

Isn’t that your standard?

Isn’t he then a fairy tell by your own m0r0nic standard?

Ife attest to it. OyO attest to it. Your daddies and mommies attest to it. Ogiame family attest to it. Nupe attest to it. Bariba attest to it. Owu attest to it. Itsekiri (who regard themselves as descended through him) attest to it.
Should I continue?

webhead:
This might seem like a predicament that is impossible to reverse ,but it isn't.

I am a recovering pm.o addict, and I have experienced your plight.

you just have to quit masturbation and porn.

your soft balls is an outcome of putting so much pressure on it. your veins will shrink causing your penis to loose rigidity.


Send me your contact

abstaining from pmo will turn this around, trust me.

if you're having troubles quitting, then consider joining the masturbation quitting challenge thread on nairaland.

AreaFada2:


The two common names for camp in Benin are Eko and later Ago. Ago became more popular for temporary civilian or farming settlements later. Though both were used militarily before too.

Benin is a very dynamic language. Words gain preference over others over time.

I like to watch Urhobo and Isoko films for example. There I hear words with clear Benin roots. Some were words still popular with old folks decade ago, all now late. In 25 years many people will believe that "kokodia" is purely only Urhobo word for coconut.

Okoro is pure Benin name for princes. Crown prince before investiture as EDAIKEN is called Okoro nokhua (Grand/Great Prince). Today Okoro is Urhobo name for "gentleman'.

Some only know Okoro as an Igbo name.

Balogunodua:

Nope they are been used as sex slaves....sold by their brothers in 100 to italians and all over Europe up till date that is the worst form of slavery there is.....atleast those Yorubas sold into slavery were war captives and not some Edo peeps who chose slavery as a way of life in this modern time cuase it's in their DNA...
