Lol,another ignorant Bini man from that very tiny 2- LGA land in Edo State ! Now,let me burst that your empty head;believe it or not,the language Yoruba people speak today has a lot of similarities with the language spoken by the likes of Biblical Moses ! Before you start acting like some rabbies infested dog because of what I just informed you about,go and research it online,then come back here with your findings ! You guys are just too ingnorant,you think you and Yoruba are same people,right ?! Far from it !
grin Hieroglyphics is not a language. It’s pictorial depictions like emoji or emoticon. Egyptians didn’t speak hieroglyphics, Wot they spoke is no longer known! However it could be sumarian or acadian or any of the Aramaic derivatives pandemic in the area around that period. And I don’t think any of dem resemble Yoruba. Hint. Beware of fake research

The Obatala king that Oduduwa fought was believed to be number 93 on the Throne
grin Obatala is not the same as Oba.
Obatala is more of a mythical figure deity.

If Ooni of Ife turns up to Claim the Benin Throne and Kingdom now he too is very correct

Do you know that the Coronation of the Oba Of Benin cannot be Completed until the Ooni sends him a Traditional Staff of Office
Of course you are such proficient at denying the Truth and will deny it

It is sent to all Oba's of Oduduwa Ancestry and if you go to any Obas Palace they will show you the Staffs of all the Previous Obas

That is one of the ways they keep count of the number of Obas that have ruled any place
All their Obas Previous Staffs are kept in a secluded place in their Palaces

The Itsekiri didn't even claim to be founders of Lagos
grin Oba is Benin word. The rest answering to it, borrowed it. Wen this current Oba N’edo was installed, the Ooni was in Benin to render help to him with the king makers and obviously mediate btw the Oba and the kingmakers. That’s all I know. The RESPECTED Ooni is not one of Bini kingmakers though I acknowledge his greatness

Yes Oba of Benin was wrong in his claim that was why we said Yorubas were in Lagos with even a Moba kingdom there before Oduduwa was born they later assimilated with the Awori people

All Oba's of Benin descended from Oduduwa

Do you know that the first Ogiso Obagodo who founded Igodomigodo was from Ile Ife and founded Igodomigodo with his followers who were at least part of a Pre Oduduwa. population of Igodomigodo

Oya wetin you want talk
The first Ogiso Obagodo was from Ile Ife too
grin LOL
U see, OGISO is two compound words OGIE meaning king and ISO meaning Sky or heaven. Ogiso means king from heaven.
Ogisos didn’t come from anywhere on earth. The were probably aliens! And their era passed away quickly

You be mumu ! The point is; Oduduwa came from a foreign land to Ile Ife but he neither spoke nor understood Bini language ! If he was a Bini man as you want the whole world to believe,there would have been some deeply rooted Bini words and language in Yoruba language today but none exists ! It is even otherway round;you Binis are the ones using some of our words in your day to day activities today !

Ponder over it !

Ashipa was rewarded with the title of the Oloriogun (War leader) and he received the Oba of Benin’s sanction to govern Lagos on his behalf.

These small fries Binis,they are lizards who see themselves as crocodiles ! They just keep exposing themselves in their futile attempt to make themselves what they're not !

Now,take a look at the highlighted word up there: "Oloriogun", that's a clear Yoruba word, no controversy ! This means that who ever sent "Ashipa",another Yoruba word,to Lagos then was,certainly,a Yoruba man ! Lol, Olori = Head, Ogun = War ! Oloriogun or Balogun in Yoruba language means "a Leader of warriors". Ashipa is a common chieftaincy tittle that's found everywhere in Yorubaland. As a matter of facts,all the underlisted words are well rooted in Yoruba language but are today being used by the Binis. They ordinary have no meanings in Bini language :

* Iyaoba (Iya Oba) = The King's mother.

* Ayaoba (Aya Oba) = The King's wife/wives.

*Olori or Olorioba = The King's senior wife.

*Oba = coined from OBAtala,the first king in Yoruba land.

* Ashipa (Ashipaogun) = High ranked warrior who prepares other or lesser warriors for battle /war.

* Oyegun = a name that's common among the people from the family or lineage of well respected traditional chieftaincy tittle holders.

*All the deties inside the palace of Oba of Benin are all indigenous Yoruba deties - Ogun, Sango,Oya, Yemoja-Olokun,Osun,etc !

Oba of Benin is a Yoruba man.
grin The yorubas are the GREATEST borrowers of Bini terms!
For example, Kpataki or important in Yoruba is borrowed from the Bini word Kpotoki, which was a mispronunciation of Portuguese. In delta state there is still the OLOROGUN family to show u Oloriogun of the Yoruba was borrowed. They take so many terms from Bini, get too used to the terms and now claim it was theirs in the first place

Stop making noise,everything you wrote is gibberish;good only for the dustbin ! Just one point knocks off all the nonsense you laboured so hard to type : Oduduwa was NEVER a Bini man !

Now,explain to us how he must have lost "his Bini language" while wandering in the wilderness,enroute Ile Ife because he neither spoke nor understood Bini language or dialect ! Before you think of any lie to tell,make sure that it is a very good one ! The reason for that advice is; inside the Palace of Ooni and some other sacred places in Ile Ife,there were (are still) some ancient writings and letters,quite similar to the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs,it was reported that Oduduwa understood those foreign letters and writings. Similar ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs look-alike letters and writings were equally discovered inside the sacred Osun Osogbo Groove !

Was it your missing "Izoduwa" who wrote those ancient hieroglyphs,Bini man ?
grin So u think the Yoruba u speak today was the same as wot was spoken 900 yrs ago? Ozuduwa is 900 yrs ago! In addition, coming across Egyptian writings in his travels is not impossible.

Boda Seyi Law Thank you Jare

Let us add more

Moba Yorubas were settled in Moba Lagos well before the 9th Century before Oduduwa whose Son Oranmiyan established the Benin Throne and Kingdom was Born
They are currently classified with the Awori people but we're in Lagos many Centuries earlier

In the 10th Century when the first Owa Obokun of Ijesha fetched from the Lagos Sea Water to cure Oduduwa's blindness there were already Moba Yorubas. In Lagos and he spent 2 months with them
The idol Worshippers Olokun diety was actually a Moba King called Seniade that ruled from an Island off the coast of Lagos that has now been Submerged by the Sea.
The Moba built the UNESCO world heritage 9th Century Eredo Wall near Ijebu and their kingdom included many Islands off the Coast of Lagos

They have now been included with the Awori people but we're actually the Original Inhabitants of Lagos and were in Lagos Centuries before Oduduwa was Born

The Oore of Otun Ekiti migrated from Moba in Lagos

Moba is near Victoria Island and their Crown predates Oduduwa's own


Yorubas forefathers might not have been great at Technology but God Almighty definitely gave them Prodigious History Art and Music
All Glory be to God Almighty

grin Ozuduwa or Oduduwa was a Bini prince dat migrated to Ife FROM BENIN! grin
He became the ONI after defeating Obatala and uniting the 13 clans in IFE. He was the very first Oni. When he was sought back in Benin, he declined return and instead sent one of his grand children Oranmiyan to sort out the monarchical difficulties in the then Igodomigodo

Remind me again of the death toll in Gaza?
The last I remember it was 11k peeps! The Gaza population still remains 2.3million regardless. So, the sacrifice is worth it, giving dat Israel’s secret plan is to push ALL these people out of Gaza, into Egypt or the Negev. And Israel had started to normalize relations with the Arabs! Which would have been the final death blow to any statehood for Palestinians. So Hamas strike, reversed all of dat, brought the statehood question to the front of all news globally, got tremendous international sympathy to the Palestinian plight, strident condemnation to the murderous AshkeNazi Zionist colonialists pretending to be Israel! And brought a huge blow to the economy of Israel, who has spent 48billion USD on Gaza so far just after mere 50 days! and soon to run into bankruptcy shud this war extended to one year or more

Ofcourse delivery is crucial. But it canbe packed in suitcases and brought into any of those countries thru their many many porous borders. It’s not only thru missiles u can deploy Nukes.
But the real answer to u, is dat ur question merely reveals why Gaddafi cud not have had nukes. He didn’t pursue means of Nuke deployment. So why have it?

grin
According to the investigative journalist Max Blum

On Twitter X @MaxBlumen

Haaretz has published a Hebrew-only attack on my investigation into Israeli friendly fire deaths on October 7. It calls my article the "cornerstone of the massacre denial conspiracy" and predictably accuses me of "'journalism' worthy of Der Sturmer."
Haaretz proceeds to accuse me of "manipulation" by quoting a wide variety of Israeli media sources detailing how Israeli forces fired on Israeli noncombatants on 10/7, often with orders from the top, but does not explain how these quotes were incorrect. In fact, it does not accuse of a single factual error.
It even references the Israeli police investigation (reported by Haaretz) acknowledging that helicopter pilots killed Israelis at or near the Nova music festival. And it concedes that an Israeli tank killed 12 Israelis in just one home in Kibbutz Be'eri.
Where I went wrong, according to the liberal paper, is by refusing to dismiss the preponderance of friendly fire incidents as a scattershot of isolated killings that were absolutely unrepresentative of the Israeli military's conduct on October 7. Further, I dared to describe the Hamas/PIJ attack as an military operation with clearly articulated political goals, and not as an orgiastic outburst of Islamo-Nazi savagery aimed exclusively at cannibalizing Jews.
So what can we deduce from the central organ of Israel's "enlightened society" running such a breathless attempt at undermining my reporting (and that of many others in alternative media) about October 7?
First, the Israeli information war is failing. While the initial phase of its shock-and-awe propaganda campaign manipulated CNN and Joe Biden into publicizing lurid lies about piles of dead babies beheaded by Hamas, thus guaranteeing the political space it needed to launch its genocidal blitzkreig on Gaza, it is running out of steam on the international stage and is increasingly focused on holding the line domestically.
Second, critical reporting by independent media on October 7 has broken through across the world, and now threatens Israel's propaganda campaign in its Hebrew language stronghold, particularly within Israel's metropolitan anti-Netanyahu sector. If enough Israelis publicly question the official narrative of the day that has been marketed to them as their 9/11, Pearl Harbor, and the second coming of the Shoah, and then clamor for an independent investigation which probes friendly fire killings, public morale will begin to collapse.
The antiwar leftists I know inside Israel have told me they are keeping a low profile and constantly looking over their shoulders. They describe the country as a dictatorial police state that no longer needs its democratic mask to maintain legitimacy. But the most paranoid elements in Israeli society seem to be in leadership positions – in the Defense Ministry, the Shin Bet, and PM's office. Even slight cracks in their shoddily constructed narrative about 10/7 could soon lead to a political dam burst.
