It is actually funny when people are saying that Peruzzi songs blow Davido 😆🤣😂 If it is easy like that , make Peruzzi enter studio and blow na !! 🤷‍♂️

Let me tell you Watin dey make Davido songs blow : It is Money === Na money oooh Na money === Equals Promotions.

It is just like Peruzzi giving Davido dirty money , and then Davido use Money to clean the money. Then you go Dey vex ? Can’t you see the money Davido used first ? Even if a writer write rubbish and give Davido , the song go hit. If that same write sing that Song, the song no go pass his fathers bedroom. So, who made who like that? David’s money made him. Make una stop all this rubbish like say Peruzzi na Davido backbone. In short , Davido is Peruzzis backbone. If no be Davido , we for nor know Peruzzi in the first place.

I understand that you people hate rich men because of the insecurity from the things you lack. Make una shut up!! Davido’s money made him, not any fucking PeruzI. Peruse don baff ? Rubbish

EFCC should be scrapped with Immediate effect. That office has become useless. We already have “The Nigeria Police Special Fraud Unit”, then what’s the introduction of EFCC again ? All these are duplicates department. Waste of government funds and resources.

The EFCC is not even doing its job. Instead of arresting the politicians plundering this country , they rather use the federal government money to chase after “Yahoo boys”. Yahoo boy who never defrauded a Nigerian. So, is EFCC setup to help Americans or foreigners curtail fraud in Nigeria? So EFCC is raiding Nigerians for a victim of fraud in America ? EFCC now Using state funds to facilitate their midnight hotels burgling, hotels bursts even while couples are naked, for a victim in America. Proceeds of funds recovered are never remitted.

We have not seen any high profile arrest from politicians except its time to use them as tools. The Nigeria Police Special Fraud Unit is enough. Enough of the oppression on my youth. Enough of EFCC. Scrap it

Caseless:
The name oshodi, we read is from Nupe.

The name Oshodi CANNOT be from Nupe. The reason is simple, the man later came to be known as Chief Oshodi Tapa (full name), was adopted at a very tender age. A man who knows nothing about his parent who died in war.

He was adopted by King Eshilokun in Lagos. It is evidently that the name was given to him by King Eshilokun, with an appendage of Tapa as his surname. He didn’t bring that name “Oshodi” from Nupe. It is impossible.

Oshodi is actually a Benin name. Eguoshodi is Village of the Oshodis. And if you’re conversant with University of Benin , the student area at Ugbowo, the popular place called Ekosodin. This stems from Eko-Osodin meaning the camp of Oshodi. I mean so many others like that.

There’s probably an adoption of the name Oshodi and given to Chief Tapa. But that name Oshodi isn’t a Nupe name. Thank you

Creeper:
Ashipa wasn’t a Benin man - he was an Awori man from Isheri. He only went to Benin to seek alliance in order to create a dynasty in Eko, which was already a settlement for trading by various groups. But the land itself was owned by Olofin (an Awori man).

Ashipa only married a Benin woman and they had a son called, “Ado”, who later became the first Eleko of Eko.

And you’re right - Benin never founded Eko nor own anything there. Also, during the initial incursions of the Benins in Eko where they tried to seize the land militarily - they were soundly defeated multiple times.

There’s an Adeniji-Adele Prince I follow on Twitter that has been disgracing his forebears by asserting that Eko was a Benin colony albeit he denied Benin founded Eko tho. Something needs to be done about Yoruba people and the fact that most of us don’t know our history, especially those from royal bloodlines who might end up as kings hence we keep having these useless owanbe kings that go around desecrating the thrones of our ancestors.

Anyway, Oba of Benin is a Yoruba man from the Oranmiyan bloodline and he needs to act right and do better. Going to Lagos to make such an unguarded statement is a declaration of war. Too bad the new generation of Yorubas are weak and docile hence every dog stay desecrating our lands brazenly.

You claim that Ashipa (which is actually a Benin word corrupted from Aisipa) to be an Awori name. Please , what’s the meaning of Ashipa in Awori ?

Honestly , Yorubas needs to “come out of their fear of losing Lagos” to start telling TRUTHFUL histories instead of bastardizing history. How can you say Ashipa is an Awori man ? 😂😅 I mean, what kind of rubbish is this? You’re not an Awori man, you came later after the Aworis, how then did you know it was an Awori name ? Did Awori ever told you that ? Why then is all the past Obas buried in Benin ? Do you know what that signifies ? Why would Benin decide to bury an Awori man in Benin ? What kind of rubbish narratives is this ? Oh my God! Ah! I’m just shocked at the way you people try to twist history.

Odogwu or Odogun (as called in Anioma region of Delta state) actually has its origin in the Benin Kingdom. A war fearless, formidable and strong military general called Edogun.

The History 👇👇

Edogun family of Benin: The influence and tradition

The Edogun family play a pivotal role in the traditional institution of Benin Kingdom. Edogun is a high chief and was 3rd ranking personality in Benin Military heirachy.

Today, the influence and prominence of the Edogun family extends throughout Nigeria, not just Benin.

According to history, it was the great ancestor of the Edogun family who usually led onslaught against external aggressors, who wanted to encroach on Benin kingdom. The King also inform him when the town is expecting visitors from other towns and villages for easy passage.
As a war general, Edogun had the prerogatives to deny visitors entry in the interest of the king and people of Benin Kingdom.

The king believe so much in the efficacy of his charms and ability to defeat enemies with his skilful traditional fighting skills.

There were other warriors in his time but he was a war general because of his powers and influence. He has several people working under him as warriors and priests.

Before the death of the progenitor of Edogun family, various traditional rites has been embedded in the way of life. The issue of making sacrifice using animals and female mutilation remain a key feature.

The plans of the igbo man will surely fail. He will always and always fail. He is trying to sweet-talk Ika away from Benin so that they can subjugate them. This is the same plan Nnamdi Azikiwe did , when he was sweet-talking Bendel to come and join the Eastern Region.

Look at what they did to Ikwerre people in Eastern region. They stole all their lands , changed their indigenous community names to Igbo names. It was all conquest for the Igbo man.

Look at Anambra today , look at Enugu state , how many times have the Igala speaking people there come out as Governors post in the military era or civilian ? None! Those Igalas in Igboland have been GREATLY marginalized.

But these idiots will NEVER look towards that direction. They love to cause problems where they are never invited. Coming to Edo to tell Igbanke how they should live their life ? An igbanke man has been governor of that region once. That is to tell you that Benin Kingdom has NEVER been a tribal kingdoms. That’s why Benin has a large base of different tribes living in peace , without been discriminated. But these idiots IPOB monkeys , always cook up stories to paint Benin evil. Whereas , in their states , they marginalize other tribes.

Let’s not even talk about the Osu caste system . Who’s going to save those people ? Let’s not even talk about Ohu. Let’s not even talk about how they maltreat the Ebonyians , as if they’re not Igbo speaking people. This is the reason NOBODY want to have ANYTHING to do with the Igbo. Power in the hands of the igbo is a risky thing.

Remember the Igbo coup , this is the genesis of the problems with have today in Nigeria. But these miscreants will NEVER face their regions and develop it. Instead , they strive in propaganda. Very soon, nobody will even take them serious because we have come to understand them.

All these stories , trying to link Igbanke with Anioma , it’s not a problem for the Benins at all. We also have communities in Ika there. We can as well exchange them. Nothing will be lost for any region. But my anger is these IPOB bastards, hiding under Igbanke , trying to cause tribal unrest in South-South. They need to be stopped.

I love how the Ikwerre handles them. Because if you let the Igbo man too comfortable , he will try to fight you in your land. He lacks respect because their culture is all about monetary dominance. There’s no humanity. How can reasonable people strive in such an environment? Little wonder all these killings and IPOB terrorist reign supreme over there.

I love how Wike handled them when he was Governor. They tried to change a name of a community , calling it “Obigbo” , NOT the “Oyingbo” , the locals call it. Is this another new form of colonialism ? If you say they speak Igbo and what they have there is a dialect, why don’t you use your brain to think that this could also be a dialectical name ? But no!!! These monkeys want to change it to EVERYTHING Igbo.

Just look at the write up on this page , writing Igbo names , enforcing it as Ika names. Honestly , these people are a threat. They are the NEO Igbo-Fulani land grabbers of South-South. No wonder the governor of Lagos had to use thugs to flog them koboko in the last general election. Always causing trouble for the other innocent igbos.

No matter how you do the write up , EDO IS ONE ☝️, SOUTH SOUTH IS ONE ☝️. No one will be a partaker of your Biafra or any Igbo nation. We don’t have igbos in South South. Go and make peace with the Igala people in your regions , stop the maltreatment of the Ebonyi people. Ntezi has already lost its language. Yet the idiots are here talking about people whom have been here since Iduu Igodomigodo, where your ancestors even left. Our language got corrupted by the language of the slaves during the slave era doesn’t make it a dialect of the slaves. Anioma is Anioma. Anioma is one ☝️. Igbos , develop your states and stop these abnormal idiosyncrasies. Shalom

[quote][/quote]Dó (Benin / Edo language) - Is a greeting which means “Well done”
So, when you say Dodorima
Dodorima means Well Done to us

This type of greetings is now used by the Neo Black Move of Africa groups. Usually between two people with a clash of forearms

lexikul:
If you have followed our tradition very well you will find out majority of the Itsekiri's never wanted Ayiri as Ologbotsere and one major voice was that of Chief Rita Lori. The late King still went ahead and Itsekiri's accepted it because no one can question the king, after the king's demise Ayiri tried playing God and if not handled seriously it may cause serious unrest in the kingdom. The king gave him ample time to turn a new leaf but he refused and even ridiculed and questioned the legitimacy of the King, in all the King was patient. The time for revalidation came and he refused to turn up, the king didn't give out the position but suspended him just to see if he will revert back to his senses but he refused. The Ooni of Ife visited him on this same issue and he was adamant, the Oba of Benin called him to a meeting regarding this same issue and he still wouldn't bend. So the King was very right in taking the step he took and the king even offered him his original title,the one he inherited from his father which he refused.
Now back to the Ologbotsere title, this is the highest title in the land after the King. In the absence of the Ologbotsere the Iyatsere takes up the position of the Ologbotsere now do you think the families of the Ologbotsere will be happy that their family is been shortchanged because one of their sons has gone rogue, if you were the elders of the Ologbotsere family what will you do.

People need to understand something about Royalty. Let me take for example , in Benin kingdom, the Oba is NOT expected to take back his words, the king is not expected to curse but in situation were the king does these things, then the kingdom must have been severely threatened. So, back to your question of what I will do, access the situation if Ayiri has threatened to attack the kingdom or do anything injurious to the kingdom.

From what we are hearing, because he didn’t support the Olu’s ascension. If that’s the case , then I think it’s wrong. And moreover , the title was bestowed on Ayiri by the Ancestor, the current Olu shouldn’t take back words like that. Especially for a reverend title like the Ologbosetere.
