JefLonDon:
OP it depends on the company as all companies have their own criteria for employing staffs


Access Bank don't employ Noun graduates......


if you want to know if the school is recognised just go to sites where their career sections requires U to choose a school from their preferred schools then you will know beta

I served in Osun state and I can confidently say that 35% of Osun people are thieves and the remaining 65% are gamblers.

THEY STOLE MY PHONE AND I CAN NEVER FORGET IT. WHENEVER I REMEMBER OSUN STATE, I REMEMBER THIEVES AND LOT OF GAMBLERS. Quote me again and have self-induced sleepless night.

Ioannes:
and you know this how?

diadem10:
How does your stupid Ekaladerhan became Oduduwa?
What's stopping you Bini revisionist from backing up such claim with facts! Atleast our odu ifa infer that Lamurudu was Odudu'wa's father! Hence, where's bini's fact instead of conjectures just like the Bini empire was all myth too with no historical facts!

AreaFada2:
Oranmiyan was son of Benin Prince Ekaladerhan who became Ododuwa.

Oduduwa did not magic from Any Arabia (not even China or Vietnam ). He came from much closer: Benin or Igodomigodo as it was called then.

einsteine:
The Benin Empire was so great that when the people of Dahomey wanted to choose a new name for their country, they didn't choose Oyo, or Ife, they choose Benin.

AreaFada2:
Wrong. In fact the Ogiso Igodo, first ogiso of Igodomigodo (as Benin became called alongside the name Idu) was also called Oba-godo. He reigned from about 40BC to 16CE. Roman senate appointed Herod as King of Judaea in 40BC too.

There were 31 Ogisos from 40BC to 1100AD. Between 1100-1169 was a time of turmoil as no male heir. Ekaladerhan had been banished in this tumultuous era. A noble man, Evian and later his son, Ogiame ruled. Infact Ogiame prevented Oranmiyan entering the heart of Igodo/palace. In fact, it took Oba Ewedo (1260-1274) to defeat Ogiamien army/supporting chiefs in several battles to enter Benin and built the new palace. About 90 years later.

These battles are colourfully re-enacted and Ogiamie symbolically defeated before a new Oba can be allowed to enter Benin/Palace, at coronation. Last one was in 1979. History is alive in Benin, every old street, village, shrine, palace activity andnd all have a detailed history behind it.

APCcrimes:
is "oba" a Yoruba word?

APCcrimes:
You own the oba of Benin or the oba of Benin owns your ooni??

Super1Star:
This Bini people should go and look for their lost son somewhere else.

The father of Oduduwa is Lamurudu.

The undeniable fact are:

They used to name their kings Ogisos

Oranmiyan impregnated their princess, who gave birth to Eweka, who started the Eweka Dynasty and he was the 1st Oba.

Oranmiyan named Bini from the word Ile-Ibinu, which is another Yoruba word. If he named your town, it is only normal that he would have named the title of your throne too.

We dare the Oba of Benin or stooges to declare they are not from the House Award Oduduwa. Let him utter it and let his ancestors place a curse on his lineage. We are daring him.

Benin people are not Yorubas but their crown and throne and title are ours, courtesy of the ruling dynasty that started by Oranmiyan.

They are therefore from the House of Oduduwa.

Where did you hear that it is compulsory for a Benin King to receive the blessings of the Ooni before being crowned. How is the ceremony done, Who and who are the compulsory chiefs that must follow the King to Ife.

The Popularity and influence of the Ooni became this much because of the AWO/Akintola rift...Throughout History the Alaafin was the most influential yoruba king ...During the agitation for independence and subsequent politicking, the Binis forged a common alliance with Yorubas, Awolowo and the Ooni were the main figures. Oba Akenzua particular did so much to make sure the mid-western region was also created out of the western region. Before that era there was no such hobnobbing of the Benin Kings and the Ooni.

Ovoranwen Nogbaisi never came to Ife for any blessings, his son Oba Aiguobasinwin Eweka II never did, Oba Akenzua never came for Blessings after his coronation.

In fact how many Yoruba Kings is it compulsory for to travel to Ife and receive blessings from the Ooni before being crowned. We have witnessed many coronations in yorubaland. Did the Alake go to Ife for blessings before being crowned, is it compulsory for the Alaafin go to Ife to receive blessings before being crowned, Which Alaketu, Onipopo, has gone to Ife to receive blessings before being crowned.

hotwax:
Answer his questions.

e.g

why is it compulsory to receive the blessing of Ooni before a King is crowned in Benin?

Lstar4real:
if Edo is not part of yoruba a answer this question

The First King of Benin is eweka son of Oranmiyan

how come first son of oranmiyan became King in Benin if u already have King existing?

Why does is necessary to bury the head of any late Oba of Benin at Ile Ife ?

why is it compulsory to receive the blessing of Ooni before a King is crowned in Benin?

AlPeter:
don't get it twisted EDO IS NOT PART OF YORUBA, It's the other way round YORUBAS ARE PART OF EDO

iamkneeyi:
Just wanna send you a message? Go and ask your parent or elders in Benin if the heads of Oba in Benin are usually buried in Ife in the olden days? This is a confirm facts that even your chiefs in the Benin can't denied..if that is so...I wonder why the Oba of Benin is higher than Ooni of Ife ?

ritababe:
there was nothing like yoruba before is only bini, bini created yoruba thats why you see name like eko (benin name) in lagos.

erusen:
your first Yoruba king was a banished prince from bini kingdom,ogiso was change to oba like 500 years ago,elleko of Lagos was changed to oba of lagos around1950

erusen:
,the ooni is trying to claim say Benin is part of Yoruba hierarchy, I have a fair knowledge about the heritage and history of my people, but I think is the Oba of Benin(he is presently not with us,he has gone to the great land of his ancestors) office's that will have to come out and have a final say in this issue,but I do know that eko is a bini language,and that before the 50's there was nothing like oba of Lagos it was called elekko of Lagos,around 1898 or so it was the Europeans that came to the rescue of Yoruba labd being invaded by Oba of Benin,Benin had a much larger empire that was submissive to Oba of Benin until it broke of to many other tribes in the south south today,so this ooni must be looking for a hell lot of trouble with his mouth,we binis are famous for having a short temper oh,even the majority of Bini consider the yorubas here in Edo state as dirty people, I hope I didn't offend any body oh.
