Fezz: Surely she can't claim Lagos, unless she wants to entrap herself in a big spider web. First of all, the city of Lagos can only be argued between the benins and the a awories to start with. No other yoruba tribe has claim to Lagos. Maybe you should ask her the initial name that the awories named Lagos before the Benins established it and named it Eko. Let her start from there. Lol
.
While the Aworis were still trekking down and running from civil wars, the Eguns of Badagry had landed and very much on ground at the Badagry axis When they finally arrived they had to be paying tributaries to the Obas, after couple of years some disgruntled regenades ran to the now Isale Eko so as to avoid payments of any sort unlike the Eguns
Fezz: You are getting it all wrong. I don't need to defend my history or Benin Kingdom because Benin's create history, we don't tell stories. I know my history. As a matter of fact, I know who my ancestral fathers are. I'm only trying to help you discover whom yours is because obviously the yorubas best option is that he fell from the sky or trecked all the way from mecca ... Get rid of your ego and you shall find the truth that you seek.

TAO11/TAO12 aka Bobrisky has been evading further questions about her heritage but right here the masquerade will dance naked
Olu317: Stop lying to yourself because Oramiyan wasnt an Igodomigodo trash. Please who was Ohen Okun that was one of the pioneer visitors to Portguese king ��? The reason is that in this visit of Ohen-Okun as Benin Ambassador to Portugal ,he promoted Ughoton to a higher level. Ughoton became known in the world apart from its relevance as the port of Benin.
Sharap ya mouth!
join me later when I will factory reset your brain together with that professor of nonsense TAO11 or TAO12, you both will be eternally grateful after this impartation Stick around boy
(1) Boko Haram does NOT have a well-defined specific location or fixed kingdom or country
They are always on the move from one camp to another camp within Nigeria, Chad, Niger, Cameroon.
(2) The Ibadan, Ilorin, and Ilesa invaders of Benin, on the other hand, have respective specific fixed kingdoms from where they came to conquer/capture your people.
I would have expected the Oba of Benin to declare war against Ibadan, or Ilorin, or Ilesa. LMAO!
(3) You have no testimony from any Yoruba kingdom which says they were ruled or conquered by Benin.
Whereas, my attachment below is full of testimony from Edos (not one Edo group, not two, not three, not four, not five, but several) who admit that their parents were conquered and captured by the Yoruba invaders, and that their Oba of Benin couldn’t do jack.

Just imagine! Feeling cool after surrendering to abo-kis, who then used them as human shields and foot soldiers in raids of northern territories of the empire.... Wetin Musa no see 4gate, abasi mbok!
Igbochief001: When I said this the other time they went for my head This is actually the main reason most big tribe in niger Delta don't want restructuring or division because they know they produce little or no oil compared with the minority in the states
Typical example is awka ibom n rivers
Annag and ibibios are two most dominate ethnicity ....but they produce little oil ...
People who produce this oil are the ibono ,oron and eket but they get relatively nothing compared to ibibios and annag imagine
Uyo ( ibibios ) to ikot ekpene ( annag ) is smooth as hell ...uyo (ibibios ) to abak ( (anang ) is smooth
Uyo to oron( oil rich town ) not so good Uyo to eket ( oil town ) not so good Eket to ibono ( two oil towns one hosting mobile Nigeria ) road uncompleted for 12 years
So ibibios n anang man don't want to hear restructuring or biafra because they know they would each have their province
Same thing happens in Rivers State ...ikwerri produce little or no oil but gets most development
Oyigbo produce oil but neglected Egbema produce oil but neglected Ogoni produce oil but neglected I can keep going on and on Reason why when u mention restructuring they are against it or only play lips service
TAO12: What about before 1475? Because the archaeological evidence I have is earlier oo.
Anyways, the c1300 sculpture in the attachments below showing the then Ooni of Ife in full ceremonial regalia was excavated from the palace of Benin Kingdom.
An evidence of a strong imperial connection.
In other words, even in ancient times, the 'Governor' must keep the 'official portrait' of the 'President' in his 'office' --- It never happens vice-versa.

"Ife king found in Obas Palace".......
the findings I bet was done by Bobrisky and the Yoruba fraud Johnson( yeye de smell no be small) Edeyoung so Bobrisky go die untop Benin matter, una suppose give am award
FEMALE ARAB JOURNALIST A female Arab journalist who lives in Qatar has penned a bold article that asks Muslims in the Middle East how they would respond if Christian suicide bombers struck their public markets, collapsed their tall buildings or tried to force Muslims to convert to Christianity.
Liberal Saudi journalist Nadine Al-Budair writes in Kuwait's Al-Rai newspaper that Arab countries have refused to address the problem of terrorism and have yet to create a climate that matches the liberal, humanitarian climate of the West. She asked Muslims to consider what their world would be like if Christians the world over had responded to Muslims the way terrorists have spread radical Islam.
"Imagine a Western youth coming here and carrying out a suicide mission in one of our public squares in the name of the Cross. Imagine that two skyscrapers had collapsed in some Arab capital, and that an extremist Christian group, donning millennium-old garb, had emerged to take responsibility for the event, while stressing its determination to revive Christian teachings or some Christian rulings, according to its understanding, to live like in the time [of Jesus] and his disciples, and to implement certain edicts of Christian scholars," Al-Budair writes in a translation of the editorial provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
Al-Budair asks her readers to imagine Christian priests calling Muslims infidels over loudspeakers and chanting that God has demanded their deaths. She also writes they should also consider what would happen if Arab countries had provided Westerners with entry visas, benefits, modern healthcare only to have them turn on their hosts to kill them in the name of religion – likely a reference to the San Bernardino attacks carried out in December 2015.
"These images are far from the mind of the Arab or Muslim terrorist because he is certain, or used to be certain, that the West is humanitarian and that the Western citizen would refuse to respond [in this manner] to the barbaric crimes [of the Muslim terrorists]," Al-Budair writes. "Despite the terrorist acts of Al-Qaeda and ISIS, we [Muslims] have been on [Western] soil for years without any fear or worry. Millions of Muslim tourists, immigrants, students, and job seekers [travel to the West] with the doors open [to them], and the streets safe [for them]."
She writes, however, that tolerance for Muslims is fading in the West because Muslims refuse to confront the problem of Islamic extremism. As evidence of this, she points to the presidential campaign of New York billionaire Donald Trump, who in a "scary declaration," she writes, "demanded to bar Muslims from entering the U.S."
Al-Budair wrote that Muslims do not have the right to condemn statements like those made by Trump without addressing the failures of Arab educational systems which teach jihad and hatred of the West in madrassas (Islamic schools) around the world. Al-Budair claims Muslim nations should apologize to the rest of the world.
Much of what she said about education in the Middle East was voiced a year ago by Jordan's Queen Rania in addressing the United Arab Emirages UAE Government Summit in Dubai.
Al-Budair isn't confident, however, that anyone will heed her call for tolerance.
"After all these farces, some Arab analyst comes out touting a pathetic message, and reciting the same words in his friend's ear that he has repeated millions of times: 'Those [Muslims who commit terrorism] do not represent Islam, but only themselves.'
"This is all we [know how to do] – absolve [ourselves] of guilt," she wrote.
Al-Budair, who describes herself, as a feminist, last year encouraged Muslim women to flee their "benighted countries" for the safety, security and opportunity of the West.
Vaughanlanrewaj: I think the issue has never been about lack of offices. Besides, Lagos is now an oil producing state. Then, the strident calls were that Lagos is not an oil producing state but it has since changed. Akwa Ibom/Cross Rivers States and white Elephant projects are like 5&6. Too much money in those states but not pulling much investors despite these huge projects. Akwa Ibom especially has been very disappointing with one of the highest unemployment level in the country despite its huge wealth. Something is wrong with the state and I just can't fathom it but if Kaduna could be pulling huge Foreign investments that pushed them up, Akwa Ibom can too.visit www.freestuffsng.com if you want free stuff in Nigeria.God bless Nigeria.

And you think with this RUBBISH RAMBLINGS you have made any sense, Oshogbo weed!
Edeyoung: Lol, i always tell you, you will always shoot yourself in the leg, i remember i debunked this particular screenshot months back i just recalled now
They are two reference feom afc ryder on that particular article
*Afc ryder benin and the europeans *Afc ryder a reconsideration between ife and Benin relationship
These alone tells you the particular statement was referring to the ogene and the various scholars who now recognize ooni as the ogene in that statement, was not referring to ryder 1969 book in particular He probably quoted ryders work for general preview on ogene
We cannot say that particular statement on ogene by the writer was drawn directly from ryders opinion in his 1969 book but the writer made reference to scholars, which could be anyone and not necessarily ryders now underlying ryders making it look like it was ryders opinion makes you look obsessively disgusting
The last time i ask you for ryders 1969 book you began insulting you family today youre threatening your poor family with suicide after all they have done for you what a pity
Ryders abandonment was him refusing to talk further on the topic on the location or identity of ogene in his next book.... Not necessarily what you want us to believe that he took a different approach in accepting ogene was ooni of ife.......
Professors Elizabeth A. Isichei is a mad lady who would do anything possible to sell her books, i read her article how she tried to connect dahomey and ife to give an explanation for the ooni to be the ogene
TAO11: You Benin people usually love to be humiliated. Now you want me to dedicate a 3rd round of humiliation to you right?
You and Ewuare-2 ?? It’s like you don’t know where Benin palace is.
According to who is Oranmiyan a mere cartoon??
I’m sure your slave-master (Ewuare-2) does NOT agree with you on this.
Because humans don’t descend from cartoons.
Yes that must be a great piece of news to you. I know.
Yes, bits and pieces of divergent details is typical of the history of all pre-literate cultures.
‘Except,’ of course, in a kingdom where their elders sit down to agree together upon a modern-day fabrication.
I didn’t mention the name of the kingdom oo.
IF you have a quarter of the IQ which you assume you already have; then you would have long realized that you’re dealing with an individual who is light years ahead of you in almost everything.
You’re too ret.arded to have quickly realized this. You will realize it very late when you’ve been so humiliated to have gathered enough negative fame on Nairaland.
.
Lizards like praising themselves! So Oranmiyan in your history is as good as real, the Ooni must have some special powers than just like Sango then, the god thunder ( Omo yeye de smell) If there is any group which history is loaded with truckload of garbage is yours, I have never seen were the the coronation of the Oba is debated or fiasco is involved but is it the emergence of the Oba of Lagos or that of the Ooni and later who will the be wife. Common sense discourse is what I called for and not some educated jargons being profess by one Bobrisky, whatever rubbish you think you know is limited in your oduduwa enclaves just don't think you know any shit and can educate anyone with your ewedu mentality
Rosskiiku: You people calling for break up of the country because of 'Fulani people' are not thinking straight.
Since when did Fulani become so all-powerful that Nigeria must break up because of them?
Why?
How?
All it takes is for Buhari to be voted out at the next elections, replaced by a southerner, possibly an Igbo man, and the so-called almighty power of the Fulani is HISTORY.
So what is all this nonsense?
When PDP were in power, what did Fulanis do? Nothing. The power was all over the country.
The south wielded heavy power.
Controlled billions of dollars in oil earnings.
Controlled the military.
For 16 years.
So what is all this Fulani this, Fulani that, today?
Meanwhile, the Buhari experience will only make Nigerians more reluctant to vote in a Fulani president in future, so the democratic process will intervene to correct itself.
By the time another Fulani is elected president, say in 12 years time, the country would have been significantly restructured and arranged in a way that no president can alter it, whatever ethnicity he belongs to.
Plus, an objective person will admit that it has not been all bad with THIS Fulani president. He has done well in infrastructure.
Every cloud has a silver lining.
So, why can't you wait for elections to effect change?
A mere 1 and half year's time away.
Organise for change at the next elections.
We're a democracy.
No need to break up this African giant.
. .
Thst is if they will ever smell there again, you thinking is in same wave as mine
Very good we are getting somewhere, so Oranmiyan who to the Oba is a mere cartoon came to Ile Ife and played a joke using parable and you are salivating
Yours Obas never descended from Cartoon but they have one of if not the most scattered/controversial of origin one can read about like this Oranmiyan of a thing and you don't want to rack your Bobrisky brain over it so that common sense can get hold if it permanently Case never close, very fresh and delicious
