ariesbull dont carry ur cursed life come here.. Ijaw and Bini have no problem...we have not fought Binis for once in history..
Stop dodging the matter on ground with forktales.. Binis are powerful people that withstood mighty britain for long before succumb to their superior firing weapons like mortar canons and artilaries..
Ijaw sold u igbos as slaves.

Its obvious that u don't know history.

Common sense should tell u that there is no way a big empire like Bini and an arrogant tribe like ijaw won't clash back in the days.

If ijaws clashed with the itsekiris,urhobos and co all related to Binis..Then why won't binis clash with ijaws.

They clashed.

Anglo Aro war
Ekumeku war
Igbo ibibio war
Biafra war


Do you know that the present Abia State was captured by igbo ...Aro was captured and renamed Okigbo (great igbo ) after the war

Igbo never lost a Territory...they gained territories from other tribes


Yoruba lust territory (Ilorin ) to Fulani
Benin lost gelelege to Ijaw
.

There was never IBO Ibibio war, but a treacherous betrayal of half brothers, slaves and Akpas collaborators against the Ibibio clan chief of Ibom( Now Arrochukwu)
The Arrochukwu people you see are no IBOs but a mixture of Ibibios Ibos and Akpas.

Read below, his own views

By religious and ritual links we mean those provided by the Ibini Ukpabi oracle of the Aro, an institution known in many Cross River communities, especially among the Efik-Ibibio, as Ibritam. The Ibini Ukpabi itself was a typical product of the contact situation existing between the Igbo and the Ibibio. According to its social charter it was, in the beginning, a local god of an Ibibio group. Then it was captured by the Igbo slaves of this Ibibio group, who successfully rebelled against their servile status and sought to turn the table on their masters, who chose instead to flee the region. Under the control of these erstwhile Igbo slaves, the Ibini Ukpabi grew in influence to become, according to one authority, the most powerful oracle in West Africa by the nineteenth century.

The Eze Agwu/Nnachi faction decided to help Akakpokpo attempt to overthrow his brother king Akpan Okon. The coup was heavily resisted which called for even more help. Through Nnachi, an Eastern Cross river group answered the call for help. They were known as the Akpa. These warriors and traders, may have had European guns which were new to the Aro territory. Being the Igbo allies, the Akpas were led by the royal Nnubi family. Osim and Akuma Nnubi led Akpa soldiers to help fight against the ruling household. Together with Igbo forces and rebels, they defeated the Obong Okon Ita forces (1690). During the final battles, Osim Nnubi was slain in Oror city state making it the capital of Arochukwu. In Obinkita the remaining Ibibio warriors became prisoners and were judged and that is why the city state is the holder of the Ikeji festival. But at the end of the war, Osim and Akakpokpo were dead. In order to honor Osim's legacy, his brother Akuma was crowned the first EzeAro (king). After his death, Nnachi's descendants took the throne starting with his first son Oke Nnachi. The Arochukwu kingdom, was founded

Hahahahaha, we are talking of real war, this one is talking of little conflicts between them and their so called brothers in same east.

Do you know how many war that exist between oyo and ekiti parapo. I wouldn't want to mention many because it is not war but a fight between brothers.

The real war is the one between the whole Yorubas and fulanis which you people have never fight before.

The one that occur between egba and Diomey where they egbas defeated the diomey twice and killed their king. The one you lot are twisting today.

You talk of British, the same British fought so many of us in southern nigeria cos of resistance.

The British fought the ijebus yorubas, go to your aro history and see them mentioning the ijebu fight the British.

You talk of Biafra war, a war that a Yoruba man was fronting for you untill you stupidly trying to enter his own region but his people cleared you.

Do you know that your dream ended at ore. Go and read ija ore.

Stop talking about war between armies, it is never a civilian war but the one between armies.

And it was a Yoruba man that still helped you in your fight by leading you.

No war took place in Ilorin, it was Afonja stupidity that cost him. Yorubas could have helped him then.

Why do you think they were conquered by yorubas in oshogbo.
