It is not, and the poster you’re referring to is unfortunately one of our under-educated young people. The article he’s citing is specifically about an Ijesa titleholder (it’s by JDY Peel), who was traditionally responsible for maintaining trade relationships with the Benin royal court. The implication of this is actually the opposite of what he’s trying to argue but I doubt that is quite clear to him yet. JDY Peel’s longer book (“Ijeshas and Nigerians”) is an excellent case study with more information.

The word ‘Ogboni’ itself is quite multifaceted. Anecdotally, it is used to mean ‘cousin’ or ‘relative’ in the Idaasha parts of modern-day Benin Republic, who are also sometimes thought to be connected to Ilesha and the complex of ‘Sha’-related ethnonyms in the Yoruba and Borgu-speaking areas.
You're bigger than this, you should have outgrown anyform of tribalism by now


Even if you are to disagree come up with good valid point for disproval

gregyboy it's unfair if you call his mom mad woman.

He is her son. He can call his mom whatever he pleases.

But that is not an excuse for us Nairalanders to call his mom names.

He has his personal reason from sharing his maternal family issues with us fans on Nairaland.

Be guided!

(1) Yes, he said it just like all your own screenshots have been saying it.

(2) Oduduwa ruled Ife in circa1000AD.

(3) Nobody is ever called Akanbi in the Oduduwa household.

You hardly learn once you grip ignorance. grin

And the question you intended here is as dvmb as asking: "Why does history record Ewuare2 as having 5 wives when he in fact has 5 wives."

(3) No historian early or late say Oranmiyan is a Nupe.

You are just being yourself --- a smelly wide-mouthed fatuous liar.

Having said that, Ekaladerhan is the mythical personage who is not found in any history book from 1485 to 1930.

ogbeni u are one dumb ass. Even what u cited as to prove oduduwa doesn’t exist was still talking about how oduduwa exist. Tell me do u know how to comprehend what u read. Everything u have provided acknowledge oduduwa the only bone of contention is about some king using his name to legitimize their rule. U said any monarch can tour and cook up stories. Was it the Yoruba that convinced the ga-adangbe that doesn’t even speak Yoruba that the came from ife. Ogbeni reason u dumbass. People are not as stupid as u.
Seriously ypu think am fellow yoruba you can fool with your reasoning our oba bought into oduduwa out of political gains even when he doesnt speak yoruba or practice any yoruba culture

So that point you gave there is invalid language is not a barrier of accepting any heritage

my dumb gregboy. The owa obokun throne is a long one and it didn’t start in 1832. Nothing u posted below indicated benin did shit in ijesha. Are u this dumb for goodness sake.
And who said it started 1832, when a strong kingdom dethrone the previous and appoint thier own kings does that mean the mornachy never existed before the arrival of the new king..



Yes the monarchy is old no one disputed that the benin monarch succeeded the old monarchy

The screenshot shows how benins have been doing some dirty work for illesha people
Gbebaaaje called the help of benin warriors to attack ibokun and after the victory benin appointmented a king there to rule the people that's why you can see the owa ibokun dressing like a benin monarch

After Benin helped ilesha outrun ijesha benin then installed thier king owa obokun as it king
