Is that what you need, what if i tell you the etymology means king
Would that solve the puzzle
Stop asking stupud questions ask meaningful ones
Like did benin-ife exist in the first place

Meninmen:
Lol. Which Ekaladeran family in Benin? Who are the Ogiso descendants? Name one Ogiso descendant. Which Ogiso descendant said the Ekaladeran story was fabricated? Oga stop clowning.

The Benin Kingdom is the oldest Kingdom in Nigeria. At the time Yoruba kingdoms were founded, the Benin Kingdom had already existed way before then. So, between an old existing kingdom and newly founded recent kingdoms, who should influence who?

The yorubas invaded Benin Kingdom? Lol. It was the Benins that invaded Yoruba land and set up the present day Eko (Lagos). The only people that invaded the Benin Kingdom were the British. It was only the British army that invaded the Benin Kingdom.

[s][/s]Topic is not diverted my very post on this comment was warning the Benins to stop claiming what does not belongs to them, conspiracy that one abandon or runner Prince they call Ekaladerhan turned Oduduwa is all lie, and I stated that the only link between Ile Ife and Benin is Oranmiyan. Oranmiyan went to the land of Idu/Igodomigodo, met a lady in that land that gave birth to Eweka, this Oranmiyan lineage formed the Benin empire. Benin = half Yoruba ( Ile Ife migrants) + half Idu/Igodomigodo (Aborigines of that land) simple now that the Aborigines that is the descendants of the Ogisos/ Ogiamens are looking for ways to be recognized as the rulers of that land, which they were before the coming of Oranmiyan, Now instead of the Benins to sort their shit out in their Edo state , they started poking Yoruba history, turning things upside down so as to savage the Obaship dynasty. Ekiokpagha treaty dealt a great blow to all those conspiracy. In this video, Oba of Benin keep destroying Ogisos/Ogiamen palace, this palace are the Aborigines and wey older than that of the Oba of Benin you can't hide history truth forever.

Ijebus are wiser than the Yoruba people, don't forget that Obasanjo is an Ijebu man. Without the Ijebu people the Yoruba people are nothing.

Are you also forgetting that another set of Yorubas claim Oduduwa came from the sky with a chain hence they gave him the name Oduduwa ateworon

Enjoy your life in denial. It seems to be the latest Benin life style.

In fact, my burden of proof actually simply involves to provide you with the relevant statement and its relevant reference, viz. author, work, publisher, year, and page number.

My burden of proof doesn’t not involve buying you the materials — that is for your parents to do.

Lol, you’re obviously quite naïve even on your own so called culture and history.

Anyways, make your complaint to the Benin ‘bronze’ sculpture shown in the embedded image below amongst several other such classical Benin sculptures depicting crucifixes in Benin culture.

Argue with such Benin ‘bronze’ sculptures as to why they shouldn’t be adorning a crucifix since a crucifix is allegedly not supposed to be part of Benin cultural objects. Olódo!

Listen again bald dullard aka ghostwon, my burden of proof doesn’t involve buying you a book. That’s your parents’ duty.

My burden simply involves providing you a statement, and then backing it up with complete referencing which I have done.

Whether you which to follow up the reference to verify whether or not the relevant statement is indeed present in the referenced material is then up to you.

You have to stop taking advantage of your fellow Bini brothers just because you’re well convinced of their low IQ. Haha!

Well, as long as I haven’t covered up your eyes from seeing anything, then your complaint here should be directed to an optometrist, not to me.

What statement is this so-called reference supposed to be in relation to?

What were you trying to substantiate with this non-existent reference?

Moreover, contrasting this to my own reference which is real and existent, I have provided a relevant quotation backed by full referencing.

The reference I provided shows every information required to verify the statement — that is:

The author’s name (H. L. Ward-Price), the work’s title (Dark Subjects), the location of publication and year (London, 1939), and even page number (p. 238).

Furthermore, here is a what a photograph of the book looks like in case you’re about to make your usual absurd claim that no such book exists.

Likewise, I need you to show me a photograph of your fictional non-existent “Yomama”, as well as what statement you intended it to substantiate. LMAO!

You’re an eternal dullard, I hope you didn’t forget yet.

Cheers!

The Fulanis/ Hausas are the most decent, incorruptible, chaste and pious people on Earth.. And oh, they are extremely beautiful and lovely too! God bless them..




I didn't say they are perfect, neither did I say no bad eggs among them.. I only see envy and hatred in your comment.

It's well, and God bless us all.

It is shameful when a tribe like Yoruba don't know their betters

The Benin kingdom we a well established functioning and advanced society when the Yorubas where still swinging naked in trees and these people dare to compare the two or even say we came from them?

Can a master come from his slave ?

It's funny and annoying !!!

The Yoruba must stop this insult it has gone on for far too long !!!

Yoruba and Edo can never and will never be the same

Yoruba still have alot of advancing to do as a tribe

Small wonder why everyone finds them irritating

Kriss216:
The energy the yorubas are exercising to conquer the Edolites should be diverted to rescue Kwarans from the Fulanis.

NoFucksToGive:
Domo sir

The Bini kingdom existed thousands of years before the Yoruba or ibo
