He will be caught, he cannot be dat smart.

Somebody must recognise him from check in to exit and definately trails would have been left behind.


He just gave somebody homework, if the detective do his job, no reason that retaard should not be tracked down.

I think street burning should be legalised as a form of execution for criminals like this.


First severe turture and finally roast him under the hot sun in the street so others can learn.


Ofcourse take him to court first.

Prince Ọranmiyan took up residence in the palace built for him at Uzama by the elders, now a coronation shrine. Soon after he married a beautiful lady, Ẹrinmwide, daughter of Osa-nego, the ninth Enogie of Edọ. He and Erinwide had a son. After some years he called a meeting of the people and renounced his office, remarking that the country was a land of vexation, Ile-Ibinu, and that only a child born, trained and educated in the arts and mysteries of the land could reign over the people. The country was afterward known by this name. He caused his son born to him by Ẹrinmwide to be made King in his place, and returned to Yoruba land Ile-Ife. After some years in Ife, he left for Ọyọ , where he also left a son behind upon leaving, and his son Ajaka ultimately became the first Alafin of Ọyọ of the present line, while Ọranmiyan (the exiled Prince Ekaladerhan, also known as Izoduwa) himself was reigning as Ọọni of Ifẹ. Therefore, Ọranmiyan of Ife, the father of Ẹwẹka I, the Ọba of Benin, was also the father of Ajaka, the first Alafin of Ọyọ. Ọọni of Ifẹ. Allegedly Ọba Ẹwẹka later changed the name of the city of Ile-Binu, the capital of the Benin kingdom, to "Ubinu." This name would be reinterpreted by the Portuguese as "Benin" in their own language. Around 1470, Ẹwuare changed the name of the state to Ẹdo.[3] This was about the time the people of Ọkpẹkpẹ migrated from Benin City. Alternatively, Yorubas believe Oduduwa was from the Middle East and migrated from that area to the present Ile Ife. Because of his power and military might he was able to conqurer the enimies invading Ife city. That was why the people of Ile Ife made him the King or Oni of Ife city. In any case, it is agreed upon by both the Yoruba and Edos that Oduduwa sent his son Prince Oramiyan of Ife to rule Benin City and found the Oba dynasty in Benin City.
@Efewestern Note the origin of the term Ile ibinu and Ubinu and Bini.
Food › Re: Made Cooks Food With The Rat He Caught (photos) by legitnow:
Efewestern:
You said the Igbodomigodo people are not related to Bini until 12th century? first time I'm hearing this, Oranmiyan only brought his unique style of leadership to Igbodomigodo, he met with the Enogie's daughter and they birthed Eweka 1, Igbodomigodo Was later renamed to Ubinu by Eweka 1.

You view about the Itsekiri's is wrong, the itsekiri had no contact with the Ijaw people until they settled in present day delta. There are some autonomous communities in itsekiri to this day who traces their own origin to Ijebu. Like I said earlier, Itsekiri is a direct offshoot of various Yoruba clans, those from escravos migrated from the present day Ilaje, The itsekiri only adopted a Bini prince to rule them, thus the Olu of Itsekiri dynasty was created. So they are mixture of Yoruba and Edo.
see above of ur post, this is the link.

Bini and Igodomigodo are not the same.

It is like changing Urhobo to Bini and removing ur Urhobo king for Oba from Ile Ife. Are they the same?

U have to understand that Oba have been renaming and rewriting the history of Igodomigodo people to an adapted Ile Ife version.

He even gets to name the State Edo after a yoruba prince called Ado

Igodomigodo people were conquered by Oranmiyan and many fled East from that war.

They call it Idu and Oba war.

Forget all this petty fights in NigerDelta today for a minute, all the tribes there have a very long history that date back nearly 1000 years. Though not always peaceful.

Itsekiri are not full blooded Yoruba, they are mixed with Igodomigodo and Ijaw who are their neighbors.


Wat u call Ondo today is mixed Yoruba, Ijaw, Igodomigodo and Itsekiri. These are the people occupying that land.

There is no such word like "Ile Ibinu" in ancient Bini history, it was recently coined when the Edo and Yoruba supremacy battle started. "Ubinu" was the right word and it was used to describe the royal administrative centre of Edo kingdom. Ubinu was later corrupted to Bini by Portuguese speakers.

Apart from the Okpe clan of Urhobo who traces their origin to Ile-ife, the Urhobos have always maintained, from ancient time that they are from Bini, no one can even link Urhobo to Yoruba, you can do that with itsekiri, which is a direct offshoot of various Yoruba clans, not Urhobo.

Igbodomigodo is the first name given to the Bini empire, it was named by the first Ogiso, so Igbodomigodo = Bini, since we are referring to a people living in a given territory.

Bini and Yoruba shared a lot in common in the past, so its normal for both to steal some words from each other, reason for the Oba tittle I guest.
see below


Tradition asserts that the Edo people became dissatisfied with the rule of a dynasty of semimythical kings, the ogisos, and in the 13th century they invited Prince Oranmiyan of Ife to rule them. His son Eweka is regarded as the first oba, or king, of Benin, though authority would remain for many years with a hereditary order of local chiefs. Late in the 13th century, royal power began to assert itself under the oba Ewedo and was firmly established under the most famous oba, Ewuare the Great (reigned c. 1440–80), who was described as a great warrior and magician. He established a hereditary succession to the throne and vastly expanded the territory of the Benin kingdom, which by the mid-16th century extended from the Niger River delta in the east to what is now Lagos in the west. (Lagos was in fact founded by a Benin army and continued to pay tribute to the oba of Benin until the end of the 19th century.) Ewuare also rebuilt the capital (present-day Benin City), endowing it with great walls and moats. The oba became the supreme political, judicial, economic, and spiritual leader of his people, and he and his ancestors eventually became the object of state cults that utilized human sacrifice in their religious observances.

Ewuare was succeeded by a line of strong obas, chief of whom were Ozolua the Conqueror (c. 1481–c. 1504; the son of Ewuare) and Esigie (early to mid-16th century; the son of Ozolua), who enjoyed good relations with the Portuguese and sent ambassadors to their king. Under these obas Benin became a highly organized state. Its numerous craftsmen were organized into guilds, and the kingdom became famous for its ivory and wood carvers. Its brass smiths and bronze casters excelled at making naturalistic heads, bas-reliefs, and other sculptures. From the 15th through the 18th century Benin carried on an active trade in ivory, palm oil, and pepper with Portuguese and Dutch traders, for whom it served as a link with tribes in the interior of western Africa. It also profited greatly from the slave trade. But during the 18th and early 19th centuries the kingdom was weakened by violent succession struggles between members of the royal dynasty, some of which erupted into civil wars. The weaker obas sequestered themselves in their palaces and took refuge in the rituals of divine kingship while indiscriminately granting aristocratic titles to an expanding class of nonproductive nobles. The kingdom’s prosperity declined with the suppression of the slave trade, and, as its territorial extent shrank, Benin’s leaders increasingly relied on supernatural rituals and large-scale human sacrifices to protect the state from further territorial encroachment. The practice of human sacrifice was stamped out only after the burning of Benin City in 1897 by the British, after which the depopulated and debilitated kingdom was incorporated into British Nigeria. The descendants of Benin’s ruling dynasty still occupy the throne in Benin City (although the present-day oba has only an advisory role in government).

Yeah! That is just it, the administrative centre u call Ubinu is not indigenous to the Igodomigodo people.

The way u use the word Bini should be measured becos Igodomigodo people and Bini are totally unrelated until 12th Century wen Oranmiyan invaded and destroyed the Ogiso dynasty by war.

Bini was imposed on them and foreign.

Before the coming of Yoruba Oba in the 12the century and then elivated by the portugese in the 15 century via slave trade, the Igodomigodo people now refered to as Bini had an indigenous King called Ogiso. The kingdom was refered to as Idu.

U say Edo but that is a corrupted word of a Yoruba Prince called Ado from the 12th century.


Itsekiri are mixed with Igodomigodo people and Ijaw. They originally were full blooded Yoruba but not anymore.


They came with the Oba in 12 century as fighters.


In fact Ondo state is a mix of Igodomigodo, yoruba and Ijaw.

Confirm Bini Babe, it's called "Afio'tor" in URHOBO, quite similar to Ofen'tor as being called in Bini, no doubt the Urhobo language still remains a branch of the Bini language.

This is rabbit, one way to distinguish between rabbit and rat is the tail, our local rabbit usually have a white tail. Ate enough of this that year.
There is nothing like bini, the real people are Igodomigodo.

Bini is the word ile ibinu, given after the Yoruba conquest of Ogiso territory and established the bini territory.

Samething with Ado. The word Edo is derived from Ado, which is the name of the First Yoruba prince of Igodo land.

This is where many people get confused and start thinking Urhobo or Igbodomigodo people are yoruba becos Oba is yoruba. wrong!
