THE IGBOS FROM BENIN

Igbos are naturally prone to migrations.

Pre-colonial times, several Igbos migrated to Benin (known as Idu in Igbo communities). There isn't much-written documentation on this as the people of that era mostly used oral documentation.

The Igbos migrated in very large numbers to Benin and even played special roles in the Benin empire. Chima, a popular Aro Priest who had influence was among these migrants. It is also believed that the Igbos influenced a few aspects of Benin including the names of its days, Aho, Eken, Orrie and Okuo. The Igbo calendar has four days which are "Eke, Orie, Afor, Nkwo".

Each Igbo community has a day assigned to open its market and to date, it's still in use. Being great traders, the Igbos might have used their trading prowess to influence the Benin Calendar. One might argue that it's the other way round but these names are so deeply entrenched in the Igbo culture. From ancient times, Igbos have had names like "Mgbe-Eke, Mgbe-Orie, Mgbe-Afor, Mgbe-Nkwo" for females and "Oke-Eke, Oke-Afor, Oke-Orie, Oke-Nkwo" for males. There are also names like "Nwa-Eke, Nwa-Afor, Nwa-Orie, and Nwa-Nkwo" of which "nwa" means "child". So, Nwankwo means "Child of Nkwo".

The events of Igbo influence in Benin may have taken place a very long time ago, so long that details might have been lost in the abyss of oral traditions. For example, a radiocarbon dating placed at the Igbo-Ukwu site placed it to 850 AD and some materials recovered from the sites had evidence of a trading system extending to Egypt. Igbo-Ukwu culture was the earliest-known example of bronze casting in the region and the craftsmen worked centuries before those who made Ife bronze. Benin would later learn the art of bronze making from Ife. It is believed by historians that Ife bronze originates from Igbo-Ukwu.

There seem to be very deep untold stories that are lost in Igbo history. The democratic nature of Igbos seems to have had an origin and a purpose too. It is said that "Igbos don't have kings" but on the contrary, research had shown that Igbos didn't only have kingdoms, they also had trades stretching to as far as Egypt! Along the line, something might have happened but we do not know because the details seem lost.

Back to our Benin story.

At some point, it seemed that these migrants were becoming very influential. It was feared that they would take over the Benin Empire and war broke out between the migrants and the Benin kingdom. This is what is known as "Agha Idu n'Oba" in Igbo folk tales. Details of this war also seem lost and much of it has become a folk tale. However, the oral history of Igbo communities like Onitsha agrees that they left Benin following a very violent attack.

The trans-migration was more like a homecoming as the Igbos faced East to start returning home where their safety can be guaranteed. This trans-migration according to the oral history of many communities in the Western Igbo areas is said to have been led by Eze-Chima.

Eze-Chima is believed to be one of the most popular leaders of this return migration which led to the founding of the formal establishment of several western Igbo towns.

Who is Eze-Chima?

Eze-Chima was an Aro native doctor/Herbalist who left for Benin. Some oral tradition also believes that Eze-Chima was rather a Nri priest. When he got to Benin and reported himself to the Oba of Benin as the custom demanded, the Oba welcomed him but also became impressed with his mystic skills which led to making Eze-Chima a chief in Benin. Hence why he was called "Eze" amongst his people.

In some accounts, during the reign of Oba Ewuare, he had famous heroes and magicians in Benin. In Jacob U. Egharevba's account, there were Igbo migrants too who were forbidden by the Oba to practice cannibalism but were rather placed in charge of two of the royal gods. This was before Oba Ozolua's emergence after the death of his father and brothers.

Egharevba writes that Eze-Chima led the resistance against Oba Ozolua who was the Oba of Benin between 1483-1514. Oba Ozolua was known for expanding the Kingdom through warfare and contact with foreigners. He was the youngest son of Ewuare. His elder brother was killed on the day of coronation while his other brother ruled for seven years.

David Van Nyendael, a Dutch merchant who lived in Benin as a trader in the 15th century wrote "The ruin of the town and the surrounding land was occasioned by the King causing two kings of the street (Rios de Aro) to be killed… After this barbarity, the king found also a third man that stood in his way, who being much beloved, was timely warned of that prince’s intention, and accordingly took flight, accompanied by three-fourth of the inhabitants of the town…"

This indicates that there was indeed a war of kings in Benin between the King and "kings"; possibly the Ezes. "Rios de Aro" means "King or leaders of Aro". Some Portuguese documents have also indicated that Igbos had significant influence in Benin courts. It was possible that indeed, Igbos were becoming a threat to the throne.

The respected historian, Jacob U. Egharevba also wrote that the warrior King, Oba Ozolua fought against Origbo, a chief at Ejide in Siluko District where he subdued Origbo and seized his treasures. Origbo was possibly one of the Ezes like Chima.

Mr Wellington Igunbor, a Benin historian who was also related to the Benin chieftaincy families wrote that "The settlement of Eze Chima in Old Benin was established in the area through which Siluko Street runs in present-day Benin City. As Eze Chima’s influence increased so did the population of his settlements expanded. So influential was Eze Chima and so completely absorbed in the society was he and his clan that
there was hardly a thing he and his people could not do on the basis of equality with Benin indigenes."

Mr Wellington's account explains why the Igbo migrants had possibly become a threat to the Benin throne. To date, Igbos have been known to migrate, expand, adapt to their new environment and even become leaders in such communities and towns. Little wonder an Igbo man was once a President of Liberia.

U. B. Okpevra, from Department of History and International Studies, Delta State University, Abraka Nigeria, in his article published in 2015 titled "IS OZORO AND UZERE CLANS' TRADITIONS OF ORIGIN EDOID OR IGBOID?" argued that Oba Eze-Oti (Ezoti) who was shot with a poisoned arrow on the day of his coronation in 1473 was Igbo.

It could be that Eze-Oti's mother was Igbo, he was adopted or there could be other unsaid truths about his personality. The name "Eze-Oti" has no meaning in the Bini language. He reigned for only 14 days and died from injuries sustained on his coronation day. His only son Owere was also murdered. Owere also seems to be an Igbo name.

All of these are indications of what would have caused the return migration of the Igbos who had lived, grown and invested in the Benin Kingdom. They might have left Benin as a result of violence against them. All of these things were happening between the 15th to 16th centuries.

Olaudah Equiano the popular Igbo slave turned writer whose life is being studied all over the world wrote in his memoir that he was born in 1745 to an Igbo family in the ancient Kingdom of Benin.

Although it couldn't have been possible that his community would be under the Benin Kingdom at that time, the Benin Kingdom might have been very popular amongst them. We must remember that Equiano was kidnapped and sold as a very small child, so his understanding could have been very limited.

Onitsha, a town in Anambra was founded by such return migration and to date, there are very few elements in Onitsha who would rather argue that they come from Benin as their original home even though the perception is almost lost amongst them.

Other towns founded by UmuEzechima (Children of King Chima) included Ozoro, Isele-Uku, Onicha-Olona, Onicha-Ugbo, Onicha-Mili (Present day Onitsha), etc. There was also a possibility that some initial migrants has previously settled before getting to Benin. Borrowing a leaf from Benin, these communities had monarchs unlike their other counterparts across Niger.

From Agbor down to Onitsha, there are many Igbo communities known today as "Umu Ezechima" but this may not mean that Ezechima single-handedly founded these towns, some of these towns already had indigenous people and in some cases indigenous Igbos living in them before the arrival of Ezechima and his people.

It is as a result of this return migration that several Western Igbo communities including Onitsha, across Niger, claim Benin origin. This is because the communities were founded or discovered as they were leaving Benin. When the culture of these Igbos is observed, they do not have a lot of things in common with Benin culture, they rather share similar cultural and religious traits with their kin Eastwards.

How could a people originate from Benin and yet there isn't any tangible trace of Benin in their names, languages and culture? This becomes even funnier with the claims looking childish when studying the culture of Ikwerre people in River State Nigeria.

Yes, there could be Benin influence here and there as a result of migration to Benin and return migration eastwards but there has largely remained a jealously guarded Igbo tradition amongst the Igbos in Benin. Even amongst the Igbanke people of Edo State, there are also communities of Igbo origin who mixed with other migrants from Benin.

Isn't it funny that Igbo communities close to Benin to this date still speak Igbo and practice Igbo culture and yet people would claim they are only so because of Igbo influence? One would wonder, why didn't this Igbo influence reach Ibibio? Why didn't it reach Urohobo? Why aren't these people answering Igbo names, eating Igbo foods or practising Igbo culture?

I am not a historian and may have missed a thing or two but I hope that this article adds to the conversation around the identity of several Western Igbo communities who are often said to originate from Benin with no atom of Benin found in them. Yes, they were indeed from Benin, but they weren't of Benin.
