I'm not arguing that with u...but u can't rule out heavy Bini presence in itshekiri....same with Delta Igbos,they are original ibis with heavy bini-influence

I don't know about 'heavy.' But I get your point.

Efewestern:
The way the Ologbo crisis was handled brought cracks between the relationship of Bini and Itsekiri. Most don't buy into the Bini brotherhood unlike before.
This recent crisis reveals a lot about Itsekiri's true alliance.

Our true alliance is peace. We don't want bini telling us who we are. Respect is reciprocal.

Who is saying Itsekiris are Yorubas with heavy Bini influence? You don't know history.

The Itsekiris were birthed from Bini. The Binis even influenced the Yorubas.

Go and read.

I'm an Igbo man BTW. Facts should be told.

Hate speech!

Wrong move! He even joined in suing the state government. The person that has the power to issue staff of office

We don't operate with staff of office, the Olu of Warri doesn't need a staff of office to operate, we are unique people with a distinct culture.

[s]Tsola should be removed with immediate effect and the Itsekiri people should keep shut and know their place in history this is not European culture were you vote to have a king, kings in benin tradition are born and not elected by men or idols king in benin are God themselves who are more Supreme than idols ir deities , again the Itsekiri people should know their plsce in history, the Itsekiri are yoruba who are the subject to a bini king no more to that and should remain so, the Olu stool is from the benin offshoot and has remained like that for centuries, why the sudden remainder that Itshekiris are yorubas and the benin royal stool that has led the Itsekiri people for centuries is now a foreign entity that needs to be checked , the Oduduwa nation and itsekiri misguided populace if they want to have a better fight for self cultural identity, they should join hands together to remove the emir of ilorin before they begin to attack your nearest neighbour's
All i see here is a mere case of the Itsekiri cultural insecurities having a minority ruling them as king, the same case few years ago when the yorubas were planning to remove the emir of ilorin for their own replacement for an oba, again culture is not a democractic platform were you can choose kings with vote or support particularly the benin royal stool were the kings are born and not chosen the law that didn't favour Tsola will favour someone else in a blessing in disguise Tsola didn't make the requirement,
The oba of benin have the final say in all this[/s]

1. This is the same foul attitude I have been warning you bini revisionists about. Who is your subject? Are you okay? Shebi u na eye open, because this movie wey u na produce never even start - u na go cry tire

2. Wetin concern Warri with Kwara? Go buy map and learn basic geography.

3. Tsola is Olu. Wetin Bini wan do? Come Warri, come remove now. We dey wait u na.

Efewestern:


I think you are wrong with this fact. The Itsekiri were river dwelling people united by a Bini prince. Before the coming of Ginuwa, the people already existed. The Bini only united them, reason why to become an OLU, your mother MUST either be Bini or Itsekiri, but somehow, the Itsekiri were no longer comfortable with the rules.

For example, Omadino people were from Ijebu, Ugborodo were from Ugbo, Escravos came from Ilaje and even till date, these communities still pay ancestral homage to their origin.

You dey mind them
No way you can be
Olu of Warri
Without the
Blessings from
Ooni of Ife
Just wait
Till the time
They will
Crown the
Next Olu of Warri

So Itsekiris are no longer Biafrans?. IPOB and Kanu need to make up their minds. Biafrans and Binis love to claim Itsekiris. Meanwhile, Itsekiris no send u na.

Consulting of Oracle to appoint a King in 2021??
I don't believe it works!! There is Human Hand behind d Scenes..Don't be deceived!!Some elders/chiefs influenced dat decision to favour d Young King, appointed!!Leave dat Oracle Talk!!Even in the election of d Catholic Pope at St.Peter Basilica, Rome, small Politics is involved..

Yet in 2021 billions of Christians and Muslims still consult an invisible 'sky daddy.' You consult a 'sky daddy,' I consult an oracle, wetin be the difference?

Do you know that that Yoruba are indeginious in North central Benin republic, Togo?
So south south is just a political region
Even urhobo and Ijaw migrated

We all migrated

If everybody migrated, then the word "indigenous" shouldn't have been mentioned by you. Unless maybe you don't know the meaning of "indigenous".

Make Oyowoli go rest. If that edict is anything to go by, his late father Ikenwoli is never supposed to be the 20th Olu because his mother is Ijaw. Tsola is already the Olu, he’s carried all the deities in itsekiri land and the Delta state government has already recognized him as the Olu. So what’s all this going to court and brouhaha for.

I tire for them ☺️� oo, why can't they recognize his Yoruba maternal linage when everything about Itsekiri culture and tradition is Yoruba itself. His mother is from Ogun state and Itsekiri originated from Ijebu Ode and adopted a Bini Prince as the first King.
History recorded a Portuguese, Ijaw and lots Bini maternal lineage so what's wrong the Yoruba lineage (where you come from)
I am very sure it that tout and ex militant (Ayiri Emami)who is partly from Ondo State Bank rolling this Court process. He has already failed.

theTranslator:

"Indigenous" means originating or occurring naturally in a particular place or native. How does that connotes with "Migration"? Or maybe you don"t know the meaning of "immigrants. Guess i should also define that for you? lol. You actually said every tribe are "immigrants". Just to remind you of that your statement.

I

First Class kings don't collect Staff of office from Government. The Oba of Bini, The Oba of Lagos, Alaafin of Oyo, Ooni of Ife, Obi of Onitsha, Olu of Warri, Sultan of Sokoto, etc.

Ayiri has lost the battle already. First he stole the crown, delaying the inevitable. He’s already suspended and will remain so till this Olu dies. He’s been relegated to only a ceremonial ologbotsere.

Igbo man calm Down

You see people bearing cong Yoruba names
Even have OPC branch in thier region .... you're here spewing rubbish ...... No matter how u try separate father and son.... The blood will still bring them together

Secondly you saying Benin influenced yoruba is absolutely nonsense... You think Yorùbá tribe is like urs .... Go read ur history boy.... Even the so called Benin have history with yoruba.... Leave nigeria...go to southern American countries and see how they practice yoruba.... So many ethnic groups in western African countries have yoruba heritage.... Yoruba is not Igbo tribe with influence only within their dot in a circle 4 to 5 states...

He is absolutely right when he said Benin Influenced Yoruba, come to think of it their first and Second King were Bini Princes, they (Itsekiris ) recognize their Bini lineage and one major criteria for choosing a King up till today is a prince must either be born in Bini kingdom or Warri Kingdom, check out the custom and regalia of the Omono Oba of Bini and the Olu of Warri, and so on which time will not permit me to write about.

Benin influenced yoruba...... Lol ..... Go learn ur history...even some Benin indigens have their roots traced back to yoruba land

Fatalveli:
The Itsekiri royal heritage should be studied. These names and titles sounds too Yoruba-ish

What's causing all these crises is because the mother of the one they choosed to be king is yoruba I don't know why the discrimination and confusion when the itsekiris claims yoruba ancestry?

One boy from ogbomosho trying to claim Itsekiri what do i expect if not rubbish comments

Your can be emotional for all i care, Itshekiris are subject to benin royal stool

I set my my balls you're not Itsekiri and if you're then you have an agenda yet unsaid i csn feel the emotions behind the keyboard it is beyond the mere truth


I have seen igbos trying to deniel benin influence on them on this forum

I have seen an awori here trying to deniel benin influence on lagos

I have just newly found from Itsekiri which i doubt you're anyway

So nothing new all this deniel is not base on truth but on sone political agenda

Itsekiri man rushing to claim yoruba is something you must first wonder
