Imagine Jesus college harboring stolen artifact. The British and Europeans are noted for stealing, brigandage, Plundering & vandalism. In that manner the new world (the US) was formed. According to Daniel Dafoe in Moll Flanders,"many a high court Judges and Governor's are sons and daughters of pickpockets & brigands transported of Newgate" Today the make up what we call US,the worst theives of them all. |

AgamaProf: Read who get the fawol... They said Benin artefact. You don't interpret another language by it's similarity with yours. Then learn what context means... The context of this thread... BENIN By the way, yoruba is "Òkó" there's no 'h' Oko that means husband in Yoruba is a prison in Benin |

johndwayy:Have you been to Japan, China, Korea and many nations that got nothing to do with Christianity before? They are not Christians and even Blatantly rejected it but Understood and respect Humanity more than you. Christianity Is not the problem, Spirituality is... all we need is spirituality and not Christianity. Christianity worked for its owners the Europeans just like Buddhism is working for the Chinese to understand their purpose and act by it. but Christianity/Islam doesn't work for Nigeria and Africa coz that's not who we are, that's not our path. We would have been more civilized and respect the Human nature if we took our time to ask our gods the path to civilization just like the Chinese, The Koreans and The Japanese. we are living on a borrowed path no wonder hatred, corruption and evil Is deep In our society even when we claim to be more religious than those who Introduced them to us. |

ariesbull: You forgot to add that the title of their king is "Obi" or "Eze". Lols Really, it is not your fault. It is the fault of those that expunged History from schools curricular. The Benin people know their origin and the real owners of Onitsha know themselves. The king of a kingdom is the most ancient institution in the community. |

ariesbull: Mumu! How do those rubbish you put up there serve as evidence that igbos influenced Edos? One of the greatest igboman ever known Nnamdi Azikwe wrote his biography and traced his ancestry to the benin kingdom. If not for the white men that came to teach igbos how to organize and govern themselves, you guys weren't different from gorillas and chimpanzees roaming the bush. A tribe without organization isnt capable of influencing another tribe. Should i give you an example of Benin influence on igbos? Do you know Obi of Onitsha? His ancestors are from the Great Benin Kingdom . His royal apparel and his staff are from Benin kingdom. Pls do not bring Igboid/Edoid sub groups in Delta state into this. Those tribes have rejected your land grabbing antics openly on several occasions. They are not igbo. Your five landlocked states is what you should brag with. Edo state as a whole is about 3 of those your southeastern states combined. |

Deuteronomy 7:25 The graven images of their gods you are to burn with fire; you shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them, nor take it for yourselves, or you will be snared by it, for it is an abomination to the Lord your God Bible prophesy is coming to pass and nations are turning into God because these idols, graven images brought them nothing but wrath of God. Nigeria is happy because they are returning these idols instead we should reject and cry unto God for mercy. When they were stolen, nothing good happened to Nigeria but worse things, now by accepting these abominations, things will become worst because we celebrate evil above good. Arise my nation and reject these idols and turn to the Only true and Living God. These are abominations. |
