You are the fool here. Didn’t you see your other foolish brother babaramota acknowledged that my post was a research thesis done by a Yoruba man. I copied and posted word for word the work of your Yoruba brother about Edo conquests of Eastern Yoruba.
You Yorubas are a conflicted race. Babaramota said my post is about 2 brothers (bini and Yoruba) fighting each other, you are saying I doctored it lol.
We beat una that’s a fact.

Did you read the topic of the write up. Mr monkey before doctoring the write up ..War is normal phenomena either win or lose but conquering is different ball game ..Benin lost war to igala too were they conquered? If Benin was tough has you people claimed they would move north to conquer the igalas and make their make in history ..i'm sorry for you people the relevance your oba has is in southwest due to historic tie ... look at your life trying to fabricate conquering Nri kingdom

ghostfacekillar:
Bini and land grabbing are five and six. I don't knw what they think of themselves. Toomuch tobacco ave blocked their head.

That’s new to me. Anytime they talk about African forest kingdoms it’s always Ashanti, Benin, Ife and Oyo. These are highly celebrated and decorated
kingdoms. Also Mali, Songhai and Ghana kingdoms of the Sahel region are highly decorated.
These kingdoms are all celebrated and reknown and well known which includes Benin kingdom.

Nothing like Ghana kingdom . Ghana is country now that adopted the name of an ancient empire Ghana empire Ghana was a kingdom in Africa that lasted from the 6th to the 13th century CE, located south of the Sahara desert and northwest of the Niger River in modern day Mauritania and Mali. ... They called their kingdom Wagadu, but we know it as Ghana, the name the Arabs gave

Favor99:
It’s military and it’s organization, the entire Benin City itself, the oba’s Palace, the artwork Benin bronzes etc

What military ?...fight in the jungle ..with villages ..benin never fought a kingdom or empire ..oyo conquered kingdoms controlled Benin to Togo even conquer great Ashanti kingdom ..that is why oyo was called an empire ...baribari Nupe..

Favor99:
Benin kingdom is one of the most decorated kingdoms in African history. Many scholars always commend and praise Benin kingdom.
Nothing can change that.
Your vile hatred and toxic energy isn’t going to change our decorated history.
So many documents of Europeans praising Benin kingdom and astonished at how civilized it was compared to the other groups in the area and in Africa

Benin is not among the empire in west Africa.. .. Benin was made known to the world through the Portuguese contact and most of their account about Benin were false melodramatic write up to glorify Benin . Whereas oyo empire had been known through its commercial trading post located at a strategic route for travelers and traders in ancient time and known all over west Africa and northern Africa to Sudan.

for where ..what is the yard stick..tell me

davidnazee:
B.itching out?? lol. U are really funny. If u care that much why don’t u take a gun and start shooting while people since instead of crying here online how they robbed us Africans.
Difference between you and me is that I don’t waste my time crying white robbed us, instead I’m getting back from them. You Dey here Dey lie and delude yourself. Idiot he goat like you.

stupid hominid ..that guy davidnazee is not modern human his ancestors were hominid trap in evolution walking around modern human .. he can't change what he needs is evolution

Favor99:
You mean your educated about Africa, and you still speak tribalism? Benin kingdom just as Oyo and Ife kingdoms are very well celebrated and cherished kingdoms in African history. Those 3 kingdoms are always spoken of very highly.
Someone that is learned to know that stuff you were talking about should be too big to stoop to the level of tribalism.
You should know better than that
People with knowledge on this forum are trying to spread unity and love and brotherhood amoungst our peoples.
You are here talking like an illiterate.
Mtchew!

you can't compare Nupe kingdom with Benin kingdom not to talk of Oyo empire at its peak.. Benin empire is trapped within the forest ..they can't even withstand the Igala but rather claim fighting with small villages ekiti and ondo.. Oyo empire was up north open to aggression from the mali/Songhai empire hausa ..Yoruba islamic scholars were teaching in sankore University in Mali before Usman dan Fodio, took over northern Nigeria through jihad

davidnazee:
Yes you are right about gun powder coming from China, every one knows that. But the Chinese didn’t use it for guns or make better use of it than the British. So also the compass and engineering thing too. But do you really understand the saying that “it is not how far but how well”.. do you understand that?

gun were introduced to Europe through the black moors it was called fire stick ..make research okay ..and chine were using rockets canon..great Genghis khan pillage Europe with explosive rocket and canon.....


Black once ruled the world....Europe civilized it not up to 600 yrs their time will still be up .. when it was a taboo to take birth in Europe my own forefather were building public bath and making soap..Saponification ....whites don't take bath they don't even know what is soap the moor introduce soap to them.. ..Greeks civilization never mentioned France or England there were barbarian savages then but the Greeks made account of Egypt Sudan, cush ,Ethiopia

Moorish:
Obalufon we lost Europe because our fathers sired too many half breeds because they couldn’t stop f.ucking their slaves

Portugal and Spain black blood runs in their vein... Moors bleeped their way out of history if they hadn't mixed their blood with the white devils their royal will still be intact even the Berbers are now turning whitish loosing there blackness through mixing with Bedouin Arab and start decriminalizing against the black Berbers in morocco Libya

davidnazee:
Obalufon please stop your delusion.
The word blackmail is an English word and has its origin from Britain.
What do you mean by Moors conquered Europe? Just be specific, the moors only invaded Spain for a while before they were chased out.
You Yorubas should stop twisting history because you want to feel important. At best you should brag about the little achievements of Oyo and stop making false claim.

You are celebrating Borno empire as stretching all the way to parts of Libya. Is it not fellow blacks/Africans that they ruled? The wars they fought was against fellow Africans.. So what are u celebrating for? I thought you were preaching black power.
Anyways most of the land mass under Borno empire was desert land.
I agree that the Yorubas, berbers, Hausa/Fulanis are one people. You guys look alike with similar cultures..
As for the jungle you call Edo, it was the only empire acknowledged as the most civilized and advanced by early European visitors to West Africa. All others are at best fairytales.

You re not a scholar..so no need to talk with you ,..Edo might be backward so don't generalize it to other part of africa.. as big as you are you openly claim British ruled china....even gun power canon rocket compass for navigation i .engineering skill were introduce to Europe by Chinese engineers under the mongols empire..Mongolian empire stretched to Europe..Genghis Khan great khan of mongolia

Moorish:
Prophet Musa was the first moor sent by allah to teach the cave white beast how to cook his food and season his meats..

He was walking on all fours like a beast

Musa had to sleep in a ring of fire to ward off those cave people

We ruled Europe for 700 years

800yrs the moor ruled Europe other part of Europe were required to supply them with young female virgin or face the consequence of invasion that is where the word ""blackmail """"came about..search the history of the word blackmail ..umayyad dynasty Almoravid dynasty... "

yoruba bariba of borgu , beriberi of borno ,berbers have historical tie ..yoruba were writing in ajami Arabic writing as long as 14century ...Borno empire stretch from northern Nigeria to Libya..they were using musketeers from ottoman Turk to fight wars through before the white ever step foot in western Nigerian or ever know the jungle called edo
in their military campaign before the Portuguese ever step foot in west coast of Africa

[b]"Overview of 19th Century Wars and Turbulence on Ado-Ekiti:

No part of Ekiti was spared the agony of imperialist invasions…The rampaging Benin armies sacked Ogotun, Aramoko, some subordinate communities of Ijero, Ado communities such as Are, Afao, Ugbo (now Ilu) Omoba and Agbado and settled a large percentage of the haul of captives therefrom in Ikere, their garrison post.


Benin armies constantly waged wars of external aggressions on Ekitiland and other communities in different parts of old Ondo State in their quest for territorial expansion and control, among others. A good reference point is the Ado-Ikere relations that resulted to Benin pillage and attacks on Ado-Ekiti on several occasion. Olomola (1984:2-3) noted that Benin armies invaded parts of Ado kingdom a few times between 1500 and 1815.. Olomola further asserted that the Ewi actually devise a strategy of evacuating his capital city so that the Benin armies would not disturb the Ewi and the rest of his people in their new site.
Odo which was, before the Benin invasion a town of considerable size, broke up as the people sought the safety of rocky and forest recesses and Uyin and Igede lost part of their population in their fight against Benin in 1815.

The development of the Ado Kingdom was seriously affected by external invasion. These resulted in series of demographic upheavals with settlements constantly moved from one site to another. The most serious of these external invasions were by the "Edo" of Benin. They attacked and destroyed many settlements…in the Ado Kingdom… The Edos were invited by Ogoga, the third time the Edos were so invited to settle the quarrel between Ado and Ikere. The line of action they resolved to adopt was to bring all the villages under the ewi to Ikere, settle them there and in this way Ikere would be equal or even bigger than Ado. Ado would then be afraid of Ikere. The Benin soldiers came and sent words to the Ewi Aroloye… He refused to surrender. He did not in any way show that he was not ready for fight. Every town or village under him except Ijan were prepared to fight…


Every town or village under him (Ewi) except Ijan were prepared to fight… The Benin soldiers stormed Igbara-Odo and Ilawe and took them. At this time, Ado town had been vacated. Aroloye took the people to a place called Oke Oko Axis between Ifaki and Iworoko. Most of the gods Ado worshipped on that side: Olua at Eyio, Obanifon at Esure and Are, Ogbese and Orisala at Iworoko. The soldiers pitched their camps near Uyin (Iyin)…Ogbesi Okun, the then Oluyin …was conquered and killed. They proceeded to Igede, Awo and Esure and took them. The inhabitants of Igede then uder Okiribiti were driven in a north-easternly direction to a place called Oke Asha…Edo troops then marched to Iworoko…The soldiers entered Are…The same fate befell Afao. They were all taken to Ikere. The soldiers moved to Igbemo …entered Igbo-Omoba (now Ilu-Omoba)…The soldiers left Aisegba for Agbado and without delay took it and evacuated the people. Agbado was the last place under the Ewi. With the conquest, of Agbado, the soldiers seemed to have finished their job…’

Ewi Idagunmodo (1696-1710), Ewi Okinbaloye Aritawekun (1710-1722), Ewi Amono Ola (1722-1762), Ewi Afunbiowo (1762-1781), Ewi Akulojuorun (1781-1808), Ewi Aroloye (1808-1836) who reigned at Ado but were attacked successively by Benin hordes…‘During the reign of Ewi Aroloye, Ado-Ewi’s kingdom witnessed massive dislocation across the terrain as town dwellers and villagers ran for safety in different directions. Many of the captives from Iworoko, Are, Afao, Ugboomoba (now Ilumoba) and Agbado were taken to Ukere by Benin invaders’."[/b]


So my dear Obalufon (descendant of Ekhalederan a.k.a Oduduwa) you can see from the above post how the Edos subjugated your adopted Yorubas.. We owned the Yorubas.. They were our subjects.. It is because we are a spiritual and traditional people that we spared Ife.. We would have burnt it to the ground too..

The Brief History of Ado-Ekiti
Posted on May 11, 2017 by oloolutof
The founder of the Ado kingdom was a prince of Ile-ife named Awamaro(the restless one) and ‎Ewi‎ (the speaker)‎. He is said to have left Ile-ife with his elder brother Oranmiyan and gone to Ita Orogun and Benin with him after staying briefly with Oloba in Oba-Ile, Akure.

Oba of Benin and the Ewi of Ado-Ekiti. Both first settled in Benin forests before disputes among their people led them to separate and the Ewi sought a new home westward at Utamodi (Oke Papa). Ewi Biritiokun and his son reigned there. It was Ewi Awamaro who migrated to Ilesun (Present day Ado-Ekiti) after staying briefly at Udoani (Ido Ani) and Agbado during the long trek. When Ewi Awamaro left Agbado, the elders remained behind to rest and gave the settlement the name Agba Ado (Elders’ Camp) – Agbado-Ekiti as the town is known today. Awamaro’s spies encouraged him to attack Elesun with the support of Odolofin after he had settled down at Oke Ibon (now Odo Ijigbo) and with the conquest of Ulesun by Awamaro, the town of Ulesun changed its name to Ado or Ado-Ewi.

The Elesun (the King) who ruled over the town of Ulesun with its satellite towns i.e. Ukere (now Ikere), Isinla, Ulamoji, Agidimo, Ikewo existed in what is now known as Ado-Ekiti before the emergence of Ewi of Ado-Ekiti. The Elesun occupied the peak of a hierarchy where he had his subordinates as the Odolofin (Elesun second in command), Asao, Elegemo, Alamoji, Olisinla, Olulero, Olookori etc. Elesun was the head of the laity in the worship of Olota (god), the deity in charge of the security of Ulesun State. The Ulesun language was different from Yoruba (Ado-Ewi) language. Examples are Ideregbe (Ewure or Goat), Okeregba (Aja or Dog), Amomo (Alangba or Lizard), Usa (Ikoko or Pot), Ukere (Ago or Calabash Cup), Ogolomosi (Ibepe or Pawpaw), Oyeye (Epa or Groundnut). Some of the Elesun’s chiefs such as Odolofin and Asao were accepted into the Ewi’s system of chieftaincy after Awamaro’s conquest. The Elegemo retained his post as Chief Priest and custodian of Iwemo Ogun. Ewi’s Warrior chiefs who provided military security for palace inhabitants were the Akogun at Irona, Oloja Ese at Oke Ese, Eleyinmi at Okeyinmi and Egbedi at Orereowu.‎

Eventually, Ewi and his people overthrew the existing political arrangements after series of conflicts, conquered Ulesun community, displaced and killed its ruler Elesun, cut off his head and proceeded and established a new town, Awamaro named Ado, meaning ‘here we encamp’. Ewi Awamaro and his successors conquered villages and cottages in the neighbourhood, replaced their rulers with their own loyalists, stalwarts and scions of the royal family. The important citizens of these conquered communities were relocated in Ado. Ewi supplanted Elesun as sovereign ruler of the aboriginal and settler population, many of Elesun’s Chiefs were confirmed in their offices but they swore oaths of allegiance to the Ewi. Many of the succeeding Ewi expanded the kingdom by force of arms, annexed territories and gave these territories to scions of the royal families, these assumed titles which became hereditary.

The expansion and growth of Ado-Ekiti and the kingdom of Ado lasted over 400 years. In the course of this expansion, Ado became associated with certain traits. Citizens of the kingdom in general and those of the mother town, Ado-Ekiti in particular were reputed for great attention to cleanliness. Traditions preserve numerous brave citizens of each Ado community, the best known were Ogbigbonihanran of Idolofin quarters, Ogunmonakan of Okelaja, Fasawo, a.k.a. Aduloju of Udemo quarters, and Eleyinmi Orogirigbona of Okeyinmi quarters – all of Ado-Ekiti and Ogunbulu, a.k.a. Ala l’oju Osoru of Aisegba. ‎Folk, traditions are replete with fond references to Ewi’s relationship with some other Ekiti traditional rulers.

Ewi’s antecedents are depicted as: Elempe Ekiti (mightiest man in Ekiti).‎ Folk traditions of this nature vividly portray the towering position of Ado-Ekiti. In the first place, Ado-Ekiti is situated at the heartland of Ekiti and is thus less exposed to cross-border attacks or non-Ekiti influences. Consequently, over many centuries, waves of immigrant groups seeking haven settled in Ado-Ekiti and several other Ado communities‎. Many of these immigrants were refugees, they left their old homelands in parts of Ekiti, Akoko, Owo etc. where their leaders lost out in chieftaincy contests.

Some were war captives, these were brought in droves by Aduloju and his lieutenants from their slave wars of the 1870s and 1880s in parts of Owo, Ose and Akoko. They were settled in Ado communities where they increased the local population, and enriched the culture with their lineage names and festivals in similar circumstances, citizens of Ado communities left their fatherland and settled in a few places in the neighbourhood up to Ijesaland. Ibadan sacked many Ado communities in 1873 and made a huge haul of prisoners of war and other captives who eventually settled in Iwo, Ibadan and some Remo towns such as Iperu and Makun Sagamu. However, Ado communities especially the mother town offset part of their losses with a large number of slaves and prisoners of war from Owo, Ose and Akoko.
Ado-Ekiti is one of the towns of the north eastern territory of Yoruba land and passed through a succession of military, political and cultural changes from the time of ‎Ewi Awamaro (circa 1310 A.D) who migrated there to form what became Ado-Ekiti.

Ewi Awamaro subjugated Elesun’s neighbours and expanded his territory except Ukere (Ikere Ekiti) and his successors up to Yeyenirewu followed same steps that by 1550 A.D. Ado-Ewi had become a big power in the entire Ekiti country.

The Ewis that reigned at Ado from 1444 to 1552 were:

Ewi Ata (1444–1471),
‎
Ewi Owakunrugbon (1471–1490)

Ewi Owamuaran (1490–1511)

Yeyenirewu – The regent (1511– 1552)‎ Ewi’s military exploits during the period was to subjugate and annex his immediate territories extended to Ikere, Igbara Odo, Ogotun, Aramoko, Erio and Erijiyan among others.
‎
Ewi Obakunrin (1552–1574)
‎
Ewi Eleyo-Okun (1574–1599) ‎
‎
Ewi Afigbogbo Ara Soyi (1599-1630)
‎
Ewi Gberubioya (1630-1696)
‎
Ewi Idagunmodo (1696-1710)
‎
Ewi Okinbaloye Aritawekun (1710-1722)

‎Ewi Amono Ola (1722-1762)

‎Ewi Afunbiowo (1762-1781)‎

Ewi Akulojuorun (1781-1808)‎

Ewi Aroloye (1808-1836)‎

Ewi Ali Atewogboye (1836-1885)‎

Ewi Ajimudaoro Aladesanmi I (1886-1910)‎

Ewi Adewumi Agunsoye (1910 – 1936)‎

Ewi Daniel Anirare Aladesanmi II (1937 – 1983),

HRM Ewi Samuel Adeyemi George-Adelabu I (1984 – 1988)

HRM Alayeluwa Ewi Rufus Adeyemo Adejugbe Aladesanmi III (the current Ewi of Ado-Ekiti). ‎

Ado-Ewi was peaceful as war was abandoned in place of diplomacy and mutual relations strategy. Ewi Gberubioya divided the Ewi dynasty into three ruling houses of Owaroloye (Aroloye), Atewogboye and Arutawekun. Ewi’s sons that ruled in neighbouring areas during the reign of Gberubioya included Okunbusi who became Onigede, Adubienimu who became Alawo, the Onijan, Opoakin (of Iwere), Olu Akitipa (of Odo), Aramude, Olokun, Olurasa, Onikewo and Olotin. One of his sons, Amujoye founded Igbemo and took the title of Oba of Igbemo from its inception. ‎

Doubt your claim

davidnazee:
Between 1705 to 1850; Benin beheaded a Deji of Akure, about 7 ewis of Ekiti land, 2 Oluyins and some Obas. Your princes were taken hostage to Benin palace and it became a tradition for your princes to live in Benin palace for a while before ascending their throne.
Owo was a vassal state to Benin. A son of Oba of Benin was olowo of Owo, another ruled idoani..

what part of Ekiti did you people decapitated their king ..i need the names of the kings and noted you've once mentioned that you beheaded olowo before so benin behead their own son..that's strange

davidnazee:
Useless man all this your fake made up stories doesn’t change any historically acknowledged facts.
My forefathers conquered and ruled your forefathers for hundreds of years.. beheading your rulers who dared stand up to us, colonizing your lands.
We were mighty and you were weak.
That is the fact.. ur lies can’t change history.. your future generations will read about it and probably be like you, argue and suffer from denial.

which of the ruler edo behead ..what is the connection between OWO and Benin?...

Do you know what the ADA stand for? How could a king rule his people with sword if they are not slaves laughing. (IDA/ADA) OmoAda sword boy is a Yoruba slaves?

davidnazee:
On the contrary, you are the one that will die in your denial. A simple research you cannot do, you are here ranting out of pain and fear of the obvious.
Edo people led by our great Oba conquered and ruled your ancestors.

we ruled your ancestors with IDA oranmiyan useless man. Curved sword carry by your Omo ADA as a deterrent to people like you...

davidnazee:
The Benin armies that laid waste to much of Eastern Yoruba, beheading your rulers were mostly made up of Esan and urhobo soldiers, brave warriors they are. And the army was led by Esan Generals.
One of the administrators appointed to administer a part of our conquered Yoruba town was Urhobo. Some Esan administrators were appointed too.

You are not Edo so can never understand who the Edo people are. But know this; Benin kingdom of the Edo people conquered and ruled over your ancestors for hundreds of years. It is all in the archives, go find out and you will see the painful truth.

Die in your delusion Uroboh and Isan general.. Jesus you guys are brain dead

BabaRamota1980:
Why should i fabricate a war between Yoruba and Bini if there wasnt one? What pride are you talking about? Pride of fables and hoaxes?

Bini came out of Ife. Oyo came out of Ife. Ondo came out of Ife.

Oyo warred with Ondo, Egba warred with Ijebu.....but no history ever says Oyo defeated Yoruba, or Ondo defeated Yoruba, Ijebu defeated Yoruba or Egba defeated Yoruba. What sense will that make?


Your problem is you, descendants of Edo slaves are trying to do witchery and make Edo and Bini into one with Edo as a warrior force that fought against Yoruba and others.

Your witchery can pass for others....you can use the smokescreen to sell them your make believe but with me it remains a fantasy.

Bini and Yoruba are one. If Bini fought Owo....its not Bini fought Yoruba.

When Ekiti's Ogedengbe waged war on Bini we dont say Yoruba fought Bini. Never. Ekiti and Bini are brothers of same racial root and progenitor.


We are not related with Edo, we dont know you. We only came to your land to civilize and rule over you.

So if Edo waged war on Owo or Ekiti then this will correctly qualify as Edo fought Yoruba because you and us are different racial stock with different progenitors.


So bring evidence of where Edo fought Yoruba.

Babaramota !!!well done Sir the truth will always prevail .. Enlighten them

davidnazee:
The difference between you and me is that while I can proudly boast that we defeated and conquered you Yorubas, you cannot do the same but rather run to Igala as defeating Benin in battle. Thank God you know that Yoruba was never a match for Benin.
As for your Igala they were a vassal state to Benin kingdom paying tributes till the 18th century, so how did they defeat Benin and end up a vassal?

what you had was midnight raid on a peaceful villages

Unclaimed akoko edo even though there are lots of evidence that shows that they are yoruba people..that's hw u go around claiming and claiming till one day u claim a curse that will end up. Swallowing ur tiny bini kingdom...

Look at how Oranmiyan met your forefathers....stark nayked!!
