jimetagambo: The current descendants of the Ogisos - present day Ogiamen (i.e. indigenes Oranmiyan met in Bini) have no oral record of any exiled prince or erakadehran.
If you have historical sources to back up the bolded, please share.
Ife influenced Bini from the few historical books made available by European explorers. Even the famous artworks of Bini were learnt from Ife.
You are right.
Ado could be from the word Aduro.
Every olojo day in ife, the Ooni of Ife carries an Ada. The Ooni's staff (rod) on olojo has several small Adas/ebens on it.
Ife was known as Ado. European explorers. I used to have a documentary on my phone until a month ago when I flashed it. It pointed to a book of a Russian authority on Benin monarch from earliest times. I am searching the net if I can retrieve it. He talked about Ife bronze craft and the skillful attainment of the Ife. The explorers could not believe the science behind about 97% purity of bronze used. This was the time of ife - Benin relationship. Even ogisos were sent from Ìfẹ Ana dukia not principal rulers. I will post it as soon as find it |

Ife was known as Ado. European explorers. The problem of blacks is dishonesty. In years to come, people could deny Europeans colonizing Africa. The history touted by benin's to discredit Oduduwa is that myth that he descended from the sky. Everyone has myths, and that is commonly known to be far from the truth. The real Oduduwa history I learned from primary school which have provable evidence is that Oduduwa came from Mecca. He passed through the north on a journey of 90 days and his entourage. Usman Dan Fodio has a record of him, being a Muslim scholar who wrote things down. We learned that the gogobiri people and one other tribe preferred staying in the northern part of Nigeria than following their brother to wherever he was going. On his arrival in Ìfẹ, wẹ learned that he had a parchment with quranic verses which was kept in Iledi. Benin never had developed any means of writing, not even now. Where are the New Age Benin historians got their story? Sad enough, bloggers have now taken place of academics. Their loud now more than real scholars. |

Shattuck: 😂😂😂 Benin learnt bronze craft from ife ? Ancient ife wasn't even a monarchy, at some point strangers ruled ife even till today the ife royal household is being contested by several families and the ooni title is rotated among these families. An exiled bini prince ruled ife. Check your history from real historian not bloggers. Nowhere in Yoruba land is a particular prince ascends to throne, every prince has equal rights and jostle for the seat. |

Shattuck: 😂😂 ife was greatly influenced by the bini kingdom, ife didn't even have a monarchy, how then did ife give bini a king when the bini kingdom is older than ife, even the obi of onitsha dresses more like a bini royalty the staff he carries resembles that of the oba of bini See delusion. Which influenced the other? You cannot find any traces of Benin influence on ife or Yoruba till date. Benin bear Yoruba names, worship their idols, has a dynasty from Yoruba. Earliest historian like Egharevba, who were closer to elders wrote correct history in 1930s that are twisted today. If Oduduwa is from Benin what legacy did he leave in Ìfẹ as a Benin Son? When Sango was going to revenge the maltreatment of his grandfather, he turned north but couldn't proceed further because of Niger River. Why didn't he face Benin? Jjust mention one legacy of Benin on Ife and Yorubas. Even the bronze craft was of Benin was learned from Ìfẹ. Check the history. |

He also said Ijebu Igbo in Yoruba land is Igbo alluding that Igbos must have come through from somewhere migrating through Yoruba land.
He never said they are one family with Yoruba but one which doesn't mean shared ancestry.

Birdbyrde440: Thank you. I'm thinking of starting again but I feel some shame like going to start first degree again the thought of it is overly overwhelming. That's the Reality Therapy. It is a woman who been married for thirty years, and have a her first child alive after the death of the first one shortly after marriage. It is her pride no matter how many she had adopted before. A Yoruba King bagged first degree in Law, from Babcock University last year, I think. A whole monarch! Dr. Kola Oyewo was in the same class with one of his children in OAU. He started late today, he holds a PhD. Myself sat for SSCE at 36 to pursue a doctorate degree. I had P7 in English of those days for both first and second degrees. My University demanded a credit now, things have changed. In my centre, I was the youngest of the old candidates, I think four of us us. The two most elderly were about 60 then. The shame you don't remove now could taunt you all your life. Deal with it now. A journey of a million years starts with a step. Just a single step of faith. I look forward to hearing great testimony from you. |

Birdbyrde440: Simply talking about my past life and the mistakes I've made and hearing people's opinions and comments is really helpful to me. I'M STILL ALIVE, STILL POSTPONING MY DEMISE. One of the reasons why I'm contemplating suicide is because I don't have a skill or handiwork, I also didn't graduate from uni with a good result that I can use to get a job. While I was in uni I started taking drugs and went into internet fraud, I got lucky and started making money early on so I ditched school and focused on scamming and fraud. You see there's nothing in fraud if you have the tools and know the dark websites to get accounts and, you also need a picker, a friend or a client that will help you run things abroad. Its really that simple. But I have stopped fraud and scamming because I lost my client and pickers and also because fraud money is easy come, easy go! The drugs really ruined my life because I made lots of extremely poor decisions, missed opportunities and even in my sobriety I continue to make mistakes and these mistakes have cost me so much that I have lost everything and the only option I have now seems to be suicide. In my last post I got many suggestions about things that I can do with N1m but the truth is that from an early age I got used to easy money and now it is very difficult for me to do anything that requires hard work.
My situation is peculiar and I don't think anyone can ever help me by suggesting a solution because I have destroyed my life, all I have left is N1m and in this economy it is a very small money. Then go on commit suicide. End it once and for all. Anyway, you have enjoyed life, girls , and drugs. You have spent your life in advance. However, there is something called Reality Therapy 'I will advise you to come out of your delusion. Things can still be better. To start with, you have deliberately ruined some people's lives as well as yours: collateral damage. Many of those people may have considered suicide as options, you may have 'used' other people's daughters for rituals. These people are finding solutions to what you caused them. Your first step would be accepting your sins and seeking God's mercy and forgiveness. Secondly, surrender yourself to a counselor, a pastor, who can help you with prayers and real counseling. Any attempts to get on your feet other ways will bring more illegalities and eventual destruction. You are like a fly caught in the web of a spider. You will expend your energy while trying to free yourself and still die miserably. But, if you see life positively, and consider those times and experiences as a time of sickness, no matter how long. You can still make it. The way I can see you now, you are not more than thirty or mostly below forty. You can still make it. I know a professor, who started university at 35. Today, he is a professor of Law. Wake up, release yourself and come down from that horse of delusion. My guy, it is not over yet. That money and fame will come. Thrust your life into the hands of God. |

After that come to Nigeria and eliminate all Boko Haram killers and bandits.
It's will not even take time for you to do that in Nigeria. This HAMAS seems to be more advanced than Boko Haram. They are equipped with drones, a network of tunnels. Boko haram doesn't have such as yet.
