You forgot to mention that Obosi is a Village in Anambra

Mumu.. The so called village is better than osogbo and ogbomosho combined ..

Reality3080:
they will never reply u cos they know it’s d usual victim mentality

Nobody regards a dog that bark’s always

Ewedu cowards are calling people 'dogs that bark always'.

Atleast we bark boldly, than you punks that trepidates and pee on ur pants before ur fulani masters

Exousiang01:
Is this your case one of illiteracy or you are just dumb.
Why should the Nigerian army respond to a letter that was addressed to Imo state governor.
You Igbo are just something else
Spits

Shut up, what do you know? Have you seen the 2nd page of the petition? Brown_roof illiterates.

While on the other hand, the same military is yet to reply the petitions levelled against them by Igbo_American military body.

Benin and their ewedu brothers are C*wards

Written By - Ikechi Amadi (proud Igbo from Rivers state).. Ikwerre mka nu..

It's a very short question: Why is benin(kingdom) the most uncertain tribe in the country today; with no substantial evidence of where they came from and who there predecessors or descendants are.

Today, ask the benin people who there descendants are:

(The 1st day) They will claim their descendants are the yorubas.

(Day 2) They will say it's the Isokos

(Day 3) They will say it's the Ijaw

(Day 4) They will say it's the Igbos

(Day 5) They will tell you is the Ikwerres

(Day 6) They will say its the urhobos (after the migration) - Everytime they will tell you that is either they migrated to that place or that they conquered through war.. People with barely 4 local govt in Edo state, is it not funny?..

Presently, they're raising unequivocal issues and doubts among other confused tribe that are willing to dive into their confusion.

Benin people are really confused who they are, where they came from and who were their good or bad neighbours.

Today they claim fathering Yoruba, tomorrow Igalla or Ijaw, next Igbo, Ikwerre or Opobo or Urhobos. They seem to be hopeless in determining who they are.

(And they claimed they once had a kingdom, hmmm).

How can you be a father to communities that are one hundred percent more than you in population, with highly sophisticated different languages, culture, tradition and customs? See the sizes of Yoruba - Benin, Igbo - Benin, Igalla - Benin. It is that of a Squirrel to an Elephant, and you want a sage to believe that the squirrel is the father and founder of the Elephant. So where is the rationale, the similarity, the closeness, etc.

Their various concocted historical tales are like many herbs in a cauldron giving vane remedy to any sickness, what a tragedy. Today some confused deltans and rivers state people like them don't even know their roots too.


Oya, benin people come and speak for yourselves 😊..

OKAIGHELE:
Numerically, Benin is contemporary with Urhobo, Igala, Annang, etc.


In 1952, Benin was 203,000, In that year Igala was 295,000, that same Urhobo was about 267,000 thousand.


In that same year, Igala was only 30 percent numerically more than Benin, while Urhobo was just 20%


As for the fact that population does not grow at the same rate, BINI was adjudged to be one million in 1987 while two years later, in 1987, Igala was adjudged to be 800,000


Lastly, the Binis inhabit seven local government in Edo state and not four, they are

Arrant nonsense

Your papa for go carry the throne put for your village or state, lowlife gum body nonentity.

Benin throne has been in that location for millennials, never left, never shifted, we have an history of our genealogy, and ancestry from the Ogodomigodo era, down to Oba dynasty, all documentated in thr Benin 'red book'.

You people should talk about your Oba and Kings, and stop trying to rub shoulders with glory...the reason for a few mix of other tribes is because you people were their slaves in Benin...or you didn't hear Benin empire had a lot of slaves...if you don't know, make a little research, a lot of you were slaves in the Benin empire.

You slaves are the ones making up theories and stories, just to attach yourself to the glory of the Kingdom...no Benin man ever said we came from Yoruba, that is a Yoruba concocted story...Ijaw are riverine people, a small group, so is isoko, no Benin man or Benin king said we came from them...the whole Delta state and Bayelsa were all under old Bendel (that should tell you that Benin had been there before these people emerged)

Our language is different, our artworks is different, our music and sounds are different, our spirituality are different, our mannerisms are different...we have nothing in common with you Yoruba, it was the Benin Prince coming to Ile'Ife becoming a king there, marrying a Yoruba woman and bearing a son in Ile'Ife called Oranmiyan that brought a link between Benin and Yorubas...you are one of the history revisionist going up and down writing nonsense on the internet.
Ask yourself if you have a throne, won't you move it to your Yoruba kingdom?

No part of Benin speak any language other than Edoid language, the cluster of ethnic groups there were slaves or visitors, whose parents bore them there, like we have igbos in Delta etc...or didn't you hear Azikiwe when he said his forebears migrated from Benin to Onitsha, as a thriving empire, a lot of people will be attracted there, just like a lot of people are attracted to Lagos now, because it's thriving economically...or don't we have different languages and people in Lagos?

You sound like a typical slave, dumb, and very stupid, we don't have anything in common with stupid weak people.

The man you call Oduduwa claiming he fell from heaven (lol), is a Benin man, it's not our fault that your ancestors had never seen an astute and powerful man like him, that they started worshipping him, when he came in from Benin on exile...and you must be a dumb head low IQ clown, to actually believe Oduduwa came from the sky.

Stupid lowlife, we created the Yoruba tribe by creating Ile'Ife, is this the thanks we get?

Shut up.. lies from the pit of hell.

Imo State that is calm and peaceful?.. first hand account I got from the residents said it's mostly politicians that cause unrest in the State.

Really?

Reno oMockery is just jobless at the moment, he got no meaningful thing to do with his life, such a tragedy.

(Day 5) They will tell you is the Ijaws

(Day 6) They will say its the urhobos (after the migration) - Everytime they will tell you that is either they migrated to that place or that they conquered through war.. People with barely 4 local govt in Edo state, is it not funny?..

Almaiga:
Igbo own 3 and half States in the East
1-Abia
2-Imo
3-Ebonyi
And half of Enugu State.


Igala own and are indigenous to 2 and half States in the East
1-Anambra
And half of Enugu State.

You're suffering from psychosis 😎..

ChybuzzDD:
Mumu, I'm from imo state, and more Igbo than you.

That imp is one of the people supporting Uzodimma to destroy imo state

He hasn't been seen supporting any Igbo cause in Nigeria

You think being born by Igbo parents is all you need to be an Igboman?

Only ignorant and misguided people like you will start a tribal war on behalf of a proud clown who cares nothing about where he comes from.

Shut up.. ewedu punks and foolishness, if you like claim to be from Anambra state, you still remain an ewedu f**l.

Akwa Ibom man made the news this time, instead of the usual south_waste..
