THE QUOTE !
" I Would rather serve my God in the Benin way, I would rather worship Him in the Benin manner, I will sing songs of praise to Him in Benin custom, unless it can be proven to me He does not understand the Benin language". Quote by Oba Akenzua II of Benin.

Was he a Christian?

does it matter ?

after all we all worship God

The Ogiamien family were never among the blue blood in Igodomigodo.

Evian was only appointed as in form of an Edayi ( caretaker) after the ogiso Owodo

if Ogiamien was connected to the ogiso his morning greeting would have been laiso but he greet laire . some might as well ask why the Oba greet lamogun instead of laiso if he his truly related to Owodo, the Oba greet lamogun because the god Ogun represent metal and can be protective hence he can sometimes be called umogun

The continuous practice of Ekiokpagha treaty is to simply remain people of an event that occurred during Oba Ewedo when he was entering into Benins heart.

if truly Ogiamien was the real landlord and that Oba erediauwa changed history, why was it in history that Oba Ozolua chased Ogierunmwanbo N Oka ( Oka is part of the claimed Utantan nation) into Oka until he buried himself with the earth with his finger nail point towards the sky ( sight still present till date although some remodeling has been done) if oka was not part of ancient Benin.


How come the ancestral house of the ogiefa of Benin kingdom ( Efa chief priest) his located in Ugbekun quarters close Ugbekun pry school if it was not part of the imperial Benin empire.

how the Ohen_ iso priest of Benin is located at Ugbekun quarter if it was part of ancient Benin kingdom


if it was really oba Erediauwa that change history, how Oba Akengbuda was able to Install Agboghidi as the Okaokuo of Ugo ( which is also part of the claim Utantan nation)

if it really erediauwa that change history then how come a land comprising of nine villages were named SOKPONBA ( meaning except the Oba ) in the same Ogiamien claim Utantan nation even before the birth of Oba Akenzua11

if uhunmwode was really part of Utantan as claim by Ogiamien how come Ebomisi, Obo N Eyaen and Esusugbaghada of okhuarhe was a able to silently become the instruments that destroyed their king ( Ogiamien) by working in loyalty for the Oba of Benin

Ogiamien claim Oba Erediauwa was the one that install his brothers as duke in Utantan communities but there are clear evidence of Enigies that have existed with loyalty to the Oba of Benin in both orhionmwon,uhunmwode and Ikpo_ okha even before the emergence of Oba Akenzua11


Ogiamien also claim most of his subject fled Benin as a result of the attack by oronmiyan force then how come that even after they fled your kingdom ( Ogiamien) there were historical recording that shows those tribes paying homage to the Oba of Benin and not to Ogiamien if it was erediauwa that change history

ogiamien claim he is the landlord and that erediauwa change history how come the the first and second Benin moat that was dug covered both the Ogiamien house and the Oba palace as it all shows that the benins carried out the earthwork if the Ogiamien house was not part of the kingdom then I think the work wouldn't have been extended to the area.

To crown it all if Ogiamien was really the landlord and that erediauwa change history, how com the British, Dutch,Netherlands that came to Benin recognised the Oba of Benin as the imperial ruler of the realm and not Ogiamien




Ogiamien is not a king but someone that was given the sit to manage for a given time until they find their earlier banished prince, but when they eventually found him, Ogiamien refuse to vacate the sit for the original owner.

The quote from Oba Akenzua 11 is so inspiring to all who seek to make Africa great again.

the link shows the uniqueness of old benin empire and it largeness from east to west and even outside Nigeria.

Abeg have mercy o.

Why dem carry am for head to reduce Edo history shows the envious entities we have around us.

my brother the way some tribe take dey attack this ikwerre people because of their decision tire me o

Etinosa1234:
Tribal war will soon start now

my brother that is their problem to solve

the people concern have made their choice known so nobody have the right to criticize them


whosoever is not happy with that should go and drown himself in any nearby river or better still just hang himself.

Naijaforeigner:
Sorry for my late response, I did not get your mention and this thread is not on the first page of the travel section.

The honest truth is the chances are very slim. As a student, you are only allowed to work for 20 hours and that can only take care of your feeding and accommodation. Getting a job to pay your tuition means you will work more than 20 hours, which might, depending on the situation, affect you getting a PR or PGWP when you are done with your studies.

These are the options I think you have;

However, I know some people who work more than 20 hours by doing cash jobs (so this does not reflect on their SIN number). Although, the chances of getting cash jobs depends on your city. I must be honest, only major cities in Canada (such as Ottawa, Toronto, Calgary, Alberta and so forth) have or offer steady cash jobs and it is not a guarantee.

Another option is getting a job on campus and working outside campus as well. As a student in Canada, you are allowed to work for unlimited number of hours on campus. If you are lucky to get a job on campus plus another job outside campus, you may be able to pull through. This also depends on the campus and city. Not all campuses have jobs for students on site.

P.s I know some people that have been able to pull it off but they are very few and this also depends on factors such as how much is the tuition. A student that has to pay $3,000 every semester is not facing as much pressure as someone who has to pay $8,000 every semester. The flexibility of payment and deadline by the school is another factor.

please fellow nairalanders I really need advice in regard to my plan relocation to Canada.
I plan to move over to Canada for studies, currently I have duo investment that is fetching me money (Agriculture and fashion designing).
I passed out of secondary school 2016 so I decided to learn skill ( designing ) now I currently operate mine in addition to my agricultural investment.
I decided it is time I go back to school but the current educational situation in the country is not encouraging so I thought it wise to just move over to where I can get a education and in the same time work to earn money considering the fact that our money is low when compelled to that of Canada.
I really advice if its possible to be schooling and the same time working.
2, how much will it cost me to move over ( am alone and under 30 )
3 am also looking seek for a permanent residence if maybe am through with schooling
please what do you guys think?

gregyboy:
Then the history must be missed up
Ewakpe history made it know that aftee benin fell into anarchy, the iyasee who was the king of the street attacked fhe weak benin and continually laid ambush after ewakpe brought benin into nolmacy iyasee n ode kept attacking benin but ewakpe didnt succeed in conquering until his son became oba and captured iyasee n ode and had him killed
At that century benin were ruthless and would have not consider letting him live

The Europeans noted this fact, iyasee n ode as the king of fhe street

ok let's rest the case

gregyboy:
The iyasee ode tried to upsurge power from ewakpe when benin fe into anarchy and was later killed by ewakpe son the next oba

but don't you think if iyase ode was really killed as you just said by the next Oba whom was ozuere, there wouldn't be any need of him serving Oba Akenzua1 whom was Ozuere son because research prove that he serve three Obas

The iyase of Benin is regard as second in command of the Benin military after the Oba before the Ezomo and Ologbose respectively.

The Iyase is also among Ikadele ne nee (the four Benin cardinal chiefs)


LIST OF ALL IYASE'S OF GREAT BENIN KINGDOM TILL DATE AND THE ERA OF OBA'S THEY SERVED.
1) Iyase Odigie served four Obas (Ewedo, Oguola, Edoni and Udagbedo)
2) Iyase Emuze served two Obas (Udagbedo and Ohen). Note: after the unfortunate death of Iyase Emuze which in turn affected the palace, the next eight Obas chose not to have an Iyase.
3) Iyase Ezene Obodoiken – a descent of Onicha Olona served one Oba (Orhogbua). Note: it was through this Iyase that the greeting “Lavbieze” was created.
4) Iyase Ekpenede served two Obas (Orhogbua and Ehengbuda), he is arguably the toughest of all Iyase's.
5) Iyase Ogina served two Obas (Ehengbuda and Ohuan). Oba Ohuan had no male child which brought rotational kingship back to Benin and the preceding is regarded as the most unstable part of our history and as such Six (6) Obas had no need for an Iyase.
6) Iyase Ode served three Obas (Ewuakpe, Ozuere and Akenzua I), after which in the next four reigns of Oba there was no serving Iyase.
7) Iyase Ohenmwen served one Oba (Osemwede), arguably the most kindhearted of them all.
Iyase Okunbo served one Oba (Osemwede)
9) Iyase Izomo served two Obas (Osemwede and Adolo)
10) Iyase Edo N'Uhobo served one Oba (Adolo)
11) Iyase Okizi served one Oba (Ovonramwen)
12) Iyase Agho served one Oba (Eweka II)
13) Iyase Okoro Otun serves two Obas (Eweka II and Akenzua II)
14) Iyase Gaius Ikuobase Obaseki served one Oba (Akenzua II)
15) Iyase Humphrey Omo – Osagie served one Oba (Akenzua II). Arguably the most sagacious of all Iyases
16) Iyase Samuel Osarogie Ighodaro served one Oba (Erediauwa)
17) Iyase west Erhabo served one Oba (Erediauwa)
18) Iyase Sam O. U. Igbe he still in service (Oba Erediauwa and Ewuare II), arguably the most studious and humble.
N.B: The choice of Iyase is entirely the prerogative of the Oba and he usually bestows it on his trusted friends, there were two exceptions though. Don’t ask me, find out yourself.
May the legends and services of all these great Iyases not be forgotten.
Oba gha to kpere. Ise.

gregyboy:
You still believe on the Oduduwa shit, when we debated this issue the thread spanned to 53 pahe lots of citation here and there and it gave birth to many other thread i think you need to visit the thread too



Is ths praise name ancient that is the question you should be asking i grew up already knowing most of the oba praise name one way or the other

We ate tdying to remove myth from our history so we can have time to look at other aspects of it

Please dont yoeubanise our history

ok


are you in Benin?

gregyboy:
Why dont you take time to write all this down on nairaland so we all can learn

I really want to know the history of defied benin nobles like ekpenede shrine and many others

The place is not doing any thing to write dem down near their shrine

Atleast one story atva time on nairaland would help, i saw this and i had to post it

ok

gregyboy:
Is it an edo website nope, akobeghian used it, because he choosed too

Listen to ancients benin oba praises you will never hear it do you want to bet on it

I understand what you are saying

I mean the person in question that used this word is not Akobeghian but a palace chief that used the words

talking about website and praise you must understand that it doesn't matter because praise is just something you think will please the person you are saying it to

so you can you anything

what the palace chiefs always do is combining ancient Benin to form words that will please or make the Oba smile or happy.

so sometimes you can't always find those words in your said web

gregyboy:
A sad story,

The oba didnt die because osopa-kahrha bewitched him with illness but rather because his mom was angered because he killed the osopa-kahrha hence obanosa killed his father own mother

Which led to his own death



Sad one, i can imagine benin at those times

Etrusen please throw more light on this

truthfully speaking my brother I will tell you that witchcraft has and will continue to be an integral part of the then Benin empire and also in the present days.

listening to the legendary Ebohon ( the man who sang the song Ovoranmwen no gbaisi )speak on witchcraft you will understand that it has always Benin part of Edo spiritism which help in those days to look,kill,punish, offenders

according to Ebohon ( who write most Edo witchcraft inscription)
witchcraft have different ranks for example there are the overlord ( obason) who are placed in high esteem, there is also the middle class and there is also the lower class and this he said are the most dangerous witch that perpetrate evil but the higher classes have purpose for example

Isusugbaghada ( the first Oba n Ikhuene y Edo )
during the reign of Oba Ewuare the first used the Okhuehe deity combine with witchcraft to perform magic for Oba Ewuare hence he was forbidden from ever entering Benin and this have continued with all successive Oba n Ikhuen.

To crown it all you must know that Benin witches serve the oba for example there a place in Slope when going to Ikpoba hill that is called Ekonorhue,this place serve the purpose of oath taking for all witches for them to use their mystic gift for the betterment of Benin and in most cases there are always bad eggs among witch and when they refuse to subject themselves to the oath, they will be detained there for the rest of their life or until they agree.

so you must understand that despite the Oba being the imperial lord of the kingdom there are always cases were an Oba will take grave actions in order to eliminate any strong threat to the crown

for example

just like Oba Ewuare1 did to Iken

how Iyase Ikpenede was sent to Uhunmwode after returning from Otun were he stage against Oyo warriors because of the power he command in military.

how Agboghidi N Ugo was dispatch from benin by Oba Akengbuda thereby making him an Okakuo of the Oba.

the truth is that the Oba knows those that will oppose their even when they are still Edayi N Iken and they will do anything to eliminate them.

TAO11 Is always trying to use fake words that have no meaning to support her claim just like the ovbi Ada ovbi Eben praise

and the ovbi oodua n uhe praise.

my brother ( gregyboy )
if you listen to Akobeghian 10 years anniversary song when a chief ( I have really forget his name ) was singing praises to the Oba that just passed in a song Akobeghian started by saying

" Erediauwa gha do legbe re
No do diauwa n edo

meaning : Erediauwa will one day come again to become Oba again.


if you listen to that akobeghian anniversary song you will find it there.

it so amazing seeing Nigerians waking up at 11:59:30 and most persons still think there is hope for redemption within 30 seconds

the various political morons that are placed in high places are now looking down on the common man that placed them there from their covens as ordinary rag.

when wahala happen now, all of them go japa

when election come now the same common man will willingly come out to elect them again.........
