[quote author=oyalunasamuel post=42852888]1). Their story of kingship began with an Edo prince
called Izoduwa as recorded by unimpeachable
historical records and corroborated by Benin recorded
History.


(2). Ayayi Crowder,a recaptured Yoruba Slave who
later became a bishop said, little were know about
yoruba existence, clearly meaning they were not
originally part of the Nigeria of today and neither
were they settlers within its geographical boundaries
but were in small settlements close to Dahomey. Most
Yorubas today are either Muslims or Christians and
those with African traditions copied or got them from
Benin civilization. It doubtful if they are not
immigrants from dahomy mixed with Benins or other
fulani-hausa from Niger . Bishop Samuel Adjayi
Crowther (c. 1809 – 31 December 1891) Was the first
African Anglican bishop in Nigeria. Born in Osogun (in
today's Iseyin Local Government, Oyo State, Nigeria).
His grandson was Herbert Macaulay


(3). Yoruba have dublicity of kingships with the process
highly polarized than being traditional.A system they
tried to copy from Benin but have not been able to get
right like the Benin Kingdom. Edo Obaship is one of the
most revered institutions in the world because of the
way it has sustained its awesome prestige with strict
and meticulous attention to ancient traditions of
valour, discipline and integrity. Edo chieftaincy titles
cannot be bought or conferred on non-indigenes or
frivolously. Every Edo chief performs a peculiarly
sacred duty and responsibility to the people of Edo. It
does not make sense, therefore, to think that a people
who would not and have never conferred their
chieftaincy titles on non-indigenes, would voluntarily
invite, accept, or surrender to non-indigenes as their
kings. Note that due to celestial and customary
taboos,the Edo monarch cannot eat out and cannot be
diverted from full time palace duties to hustle things
that have no beneficial value to his domain.


(4). Most traditional religions being practiced by the
Yorubas today are of Benin Origins.Olokun, Ogun, Iha
oguega(ifa), oronmila, Esago(shango), Ayelala
etc.Benin traditions,mystic and spirituality are
stillfully documented and yorubanized by Yorubas in
positions of affluence. Edo people today are
predominantly Christians with some denying their
traditional religious origins. But,it has not been
possible to exterminate our traditional practice
because it is embedded firmly in our ways of life.
Although the Great Edo (Benin) Kingdom was not
major participant in the trans-Atlantic slave trade,
because the Obas (Kings) believed that their subjects
were too valuable to sell away, and their noblemen
had need of war captives on their own farms, the
influence of Edo religion and medicine have still been
substantial on the people of the Americas.
According to Mason (1996), it has been widely
accepted that Olokun (god of the sea) worship
originated with the Edos and spread to the Yoruba
(p.2). In fact, the most prominent part of Edo
cultural traditions that has made its mark in the New
World is Olokun worship. Olokun (god of the Waters,
known as Osiris in Egypt) worship originated from
Urhonigbe and then became prominent at
Ughoton,around the Ethiope (Olokun) River. The
priesthood and rituals were firmly established at the
time. Some of the possible points of contact happened
early. During the Ogiso Period, trade with the Yoruba
and Igbos was quite extensive. Olokun worship may
have spread to those areas through traders. Prior to
the Oba Period,Ekaladerhan Izoduwa was initiated
into Olokun as a chief Priest while he stayed at
Ughoton, before his moving westward with his followers
to establish Ilefe (Ero,1999,p.108-109).
Once he arrived, Ekaladerhan Izoduwa brought Edo
traditions to those areas and was a King of his new
community called Ilefe, which could be what yoruba
call IFE. . From Ekaladerhan Izoduwa’s loins, the
Yoruba dynasties may have began. However, it is
certain that Olokun is an Edo divinity whose worship
spread to the outlying Yoruba areas. During the trans-
Atlantic slave trade, slave raids were launched upon
Yoruba and Ibo territories. Europeans were able to
obtain some of the greatest amounts of West Africans
from both Yoruba and Ibo land (Crosby,1992, p.136).
In the 18th century in Iboland at Isseke, slave
raiders took a famous Edo subject named Olaudah
Equiano, who later wrote about the encounter. Olaudah
traveled to the New World and then to England,
learned to read and write English, and shared his
religious and cultural experiences.
Many Edo traditions were directly and indirectly
incorporated into the New World through its far
reaching colonies. The Edo Kingdom extended from the
boundary with Oyo in the north (Otun) to the Atlantic
in the south, beyond Asaba to River Niger, and up to
Eko (Lagos) in the west. Both Edo religion and
medicine have already been taken to those domains,
following traditional practices originating in Edo land.



(5). Benin ruled over what today known as
Yorubaland, IFE, EKITI, LAGOS, OGUN, OWO, ONDO ETC


(6). Benin through Oba Orhogbuan founded lagos and
ruled Lagos through royal viceroys whose descendants
are today the traditional rulers of Lagos.The rights of
who owns Lagos is not disputable.Lagos was a Benin
town with a Benin Duke who paid tribute to the Oba of
Benin indeed his chiefs were the descendants of noble
Benin families. The Benin empire ran Lagos for over
400 years before the colonial powers took over.
Though there were some migrant yorubas from togo
during british presence in lagos, but they formed not
the rulers of the town but the subjects of the Oba just
like we find in the United Kingdom today where people
are subjects of the queen of England and not citizens.
We will explain citizenship rights to you later in
another treatise.

(7). Benin first to meet Europeans
( . "Oba" is a word adopted from Benin and not
Yoruba as many made us to believe. There is no king of
Yoruba's people. and if there is, what was his
title?;how many Yoruba prominent traditional
leaders/rulers carried the title Oba? since when?.if
Yoruba calls their king Oba,it doesn't mean we derived
our king's name (N'Oba) from them. Everyone has a
name for king in the their native language/tongue.
The Oba of Lagos is Eleko of Eko not Oba, the British
change it to Oba. the Origin of word "oba" is Benin

(9). They never conquered any territory but rather
struggle with their neighbours before and after the
first encounter with Europeans slave hunters.

(10). "Edo" have no linguistic relationship with
Yoruba. Words like Eko,Idu
Ganran,Yaba,Oshodi,Osa,Eti-Osa,idu-magbo,Idu-
mota have no Yoruba origin but Edo's.

(11). Note history is subject to scientific diagnosis and
many historic writtings in the past about Benin-yoruba
have been proved by archaeologies and scientist as
erroneous and false.

(12). Many Yoruba being those in the forefront of
Nigeria history writers wrote history textbooks used in
Nigeria institutions and thus had the benefit of
making their yoruba look like leading culture with the
richest history for nigerians.

(13). Yorubas exploiting their privilege of imbibing the
whiteman's education first have been peddling
falsehood in Nigeria,British and other western
universities misleading Africans with grammar and
academic titles. They confuse other external scholars
about the true realities of African history, implanting
those false history into African -America books
without the knowledge of the Edo King.

(14). Yorubas engaged the highest in slave raiding in
their togo-oyo region which stretched to lagos during
slave trade. see http://ihuanedo.ning.com/ …/to…/
yoruba-enslavement-of-african

(15) Yoruba never colonized Benin but Benin colonized
many Yoruba settlements.

(16) Yoruba is not in anyway related to Igbo ancestral
history

(17) Yoruba was not in anyway related to itsekiri
history. There could be later migrants during the
European exploration and commerce but not related to
the itsekiri ancestral lineage. Never mind all the title
of "Olu" in the region,it is a title contrived to replace
the original which is "Ode" of Itsekiris.





God bless you...learnt alot

wowwwwwwww...happy I found this.....thanks.. Benin is great, now I see where d envy comes from

meekmill networth is just 5mil $....oga take am easy

UyiIredia:
No, stroke killed him not foolishness. The Oba is foolish. Why should I ask anything ? Obviously, his proclamation is going to cause difficulties for Benin people.

you caused the stroke because of your foolishness... u bring your foolishness and jump into conclusion without knowing anything... you can bury dead bodies but no ceremony....so why d long throat....ITK

sai baba

UyiIredia:
My father is dead so he can't be foolish. The Oba who is alive is foolish.

foolishness killed him and the foolishness is transfered to you....if you don't know something, u ask...

UyiIredia:
The Oba is being foolish.

onomeasike:
Let them go and collect it na.
Every past and living Oba of Benin is an ile Ife prince and his remains, particularly, the head, remains the property of Ile Ife

. you made my Sunday ....sorry bros na so you hear...come chop rice o..hahah ..lie lie

JuanDeDios:
Navy Commander Anthony Onyearugbulem suspended Omo N'Oba and heaven did not fall. Please show me the lie in that. What you have written is a cocktails of tall tales, conjectures and unverified stories. What you're really saying is that the Oba or the Benin people used juju on the Commander. Well, that is a matter of belief and I can't deny you your right to yours. But I am not aware, and I don't believe, that the Commander saw any coffins in his office. People miscarry every day, including today. Administrators got redeployed often back then - note he was not fired from the Navy, just redeployed. Or can you show that he served a significantly shorter term than the other milads we had? And his death had nothing to do with the oba; some of the milads we had are also dead and they didn't encounter any oba.

But I think you're really saying behind all this "grammar" is that it is okay for the oba to stop you people from burying your dead. Alright. Carry go. It's your funeral, not mine.

it's your funeral and that's y you complaining, well for your information, you can bury but no ceremonies. your dead hero onyeregbulem said that he was going to suspend the oba but he did not leave to suspend him ....just the few words he read killed him...egbon u can come n sue him an let death befall you.....

gregyboy:

Dreamscometrue:
You that have instagram how has your life changed

when you dn discover say na real flavour account.. you change topic... hahaha e pain am..

Sicillian:
lol anoda Afonja pathetic clown. is it the Owambe ooni u're talking about? that political umff that does not even have full control over his palace n u're trying to compare him with oba ewuare ii d great... he was just too small to be recognized... him dey craze? for where men that matter dey

hahahaha help me tell am. oni of owambe gat me

onomeasike:
Hahaha. Tell the Oba of Benin to go to Ile Ife and collect the heads of past Oba of Benin first before I know if the Oba is as powerful as the fake importance you are giving him. The wise Yoruba ancestors knew that a generation of liars will raise up one day in Benin and could shamelessly attempt to rewrite history so decided to insist that the heads Benin obas must always be returned to their home in Ile Ife ,that evidence is still standing today and future generations will see it and know that some crooks want to rewrite history.
And about the Ooni, the joke is on the late Oba of Benin and his son who obviously will believe his father as fathers boy but much pictures like the Oba of Benin flanking past Oonis, the Oba who you lied that he never leaves the palace bowing in handshake to the Queen Elizabeth,history books that far far predates the paden-like book written by the late Oba confirmed how even the appointment of Benin kings must get the ratification of a reigning Ooni and more recent contradictions in ordinary burial rites have confirmed that dubious lies in Benin tradition and history.
Na today .
Quite recently, we saw how Prof Paden 'rewrote' history on Osibanjo's recommendation, thank God all the players are still alive.
Ooni just proved to him that he's bigger and more matured. Ooni owns everything including the Oba of Benin and doesn't need to prove anything.
Finally, in Africa, heads of a corpse would be buried in his father's, the heads of past oba of Benin were buried in their fathers house in Ile Ife.The royalty in Benin is Yoruba while others like you are probably not.

stop deceiving yourself oga madam. he don't have to collect the heads because that's not relevant, if they needed it they will take it in a glimpse. talking about power , your oni is nothing, your oni bows to tinubu and his colleague . talking about leaving palace , how come you believe that ? yes he leaves the palace when it matters most but not travel from state to state or pay visit to men in the cities and beyond like oni. stop playing puzzle with history, the more you try to rewrite , the more foolish it looks...Done here .Happy Sunday....

mapist:
Point of correction, those countries mentioned do not have their monarchs infringe on people's rights; besides,since you are aggressively defending your king's wrong doings and tradition,i want to put this up to you; Who owns AKUGBE VENTURES - a money collecting entity at motor parks headed by him which in turn remits to the selfish govt. Atleast, the monarchs named above don't exploit their people and not even the absolute monarch - Queen Elizabeth II who can do no wrong according to the British Constitution does that.

There should be sanity and fairness in every by-law or traditional laws passed because these subjects that these laws inconvenient make the crown what it's worth. CAN A KING RULE HIMSELF AND HIS CHIEFS WITHOUT SUBJECTS?

akugbe ventures is not own by the oba, the owner is tony kabaka who is the junior brother to Bob izua .he's an aye member and oshiomole made him and his cohort billionaire, oshiomole made all the cultist rich and is administration was polluted by tout. . so don't stain the oba .

leghagha:
This is very wrong.If a moslem dies nko?

u can bury but no ceremony.. people fail to understand

JuanDeDios:
Ambode can do it anywhere, including Benin. He is the governor and the oba serves at his pleasure. I was in Edo when milad Onyearugbulem suspended Omo N'Oba, and the heavens did not fall. A tradition is okay as long as it is not harmful. But declaring an Oro curfew possibly in order to kill people is harmful and I was governor you won't think of it in domain. Thank you.

bros you can lie o.....he suspended the oba with mere words. let me.tell you what happened to him., am sure you were busy farming and you didn't remember. he saw coffins at his office every time, his wife miscarriage and lost his son, swollen stomach and legs after few sittings in court. He brought his family ,mother and father to come and beg the oba but the deed has been done. he was later removed as the administrator of the state .Onyearugbulem died suddenly in a hotel room in Kaduna..let me stop there..
