Sorry, I don't speak dumb horseshit literature language, I speak logics, so I couldn't understand your nonsensical statement nor understand how you see the future and the passed : my ancestors had a famous empire !

Mr know it all, how is Edo a corruption of "Bini", what online trash have you learnt today ? Teach me my history since online trash makes you know me better than I know myself.
Dumbass, Literature is an Art. And whatever precolonial accounts that was written of your early cavemen ancestors were by English not Science.

Dude the Yoruba tribe is a big and great one
Don't drag them low for ur selfish interest
Stop claiming that itsekiri king of warri
Go find another
Or better still
Dive deeper into research than feasting on falsehood

I didn’t claim them. They acknowledged they are Yoruba.

Besides, Yoruba is conglomeration of Ijebu, Egba, Ife, Oyo, Ekiti, Awori, Ijesha, Itsekiri etc.

Historical accounts had it as Bini not the modern creation of Edo.


"Historical accounts" , what the hell are you talking about ?
Please state your arguments clearly instead of using empty words like "historical accounts".

For your information, french eye witnesses from 1830's wrote several names down for my people: Beninien and ouéni.

Also the name Edo is actually part of the title of the Oba of Benin (Omo n'Oba n'Edo), it predates Nigeria.

"Bini" is not even part of Edo language whereas Edo is part of it.
The new creation is the word " Bini" not the word Edo, you should stop reading trash online.

Mr know it all, how is Edo a corruption of "Bini", what online trash have you learnt today ? Teach me my history since online trash makes you know me better than I know myself.

Take itsikeri out of your imaginary yoruba "conglomeration", your yoruba tribe is limited to oyo.
The itsikeri are related to the Edo, they have no links with oyo.

All you showed were the words of a senile old man.
The oral story of the itsikeri places them as children of the Oba.

And their tradition is the same as that of Benin and their Olu even recognises the Oba as his father.

The Olu of Warri himself stated that the Oba of Benin is his father !
The precolonial palace of the olu was a smaller version of that of the Oba and the British always had to pass through the itsikeri in order to meet the Oba of Benin, the itsikeri would actually lead them to the emperor and introduce the Europeans to the Oba.

The itsikeri are part of Benin history, they have no connection whatsoever with oyo.

The position of the Bini rat would be that "when Ginuwa arrived a ghost town at the heart of warri, empty & devoid of humans, he then moulded with sand and spittle, a group of creatures after his likeness and called them itsekiri.

incredible fool, Ginuwa story is only a story which reaffirms the Benin origin of the Itsikeri people. The only observable truth is that Iwere kingdom was part of Benin empire and its people were subjects of the Oba as seen by European eyewitnesses.

You confuse story with history. But again why should I expect more from a guy who never studied any science. Your mind is that if a toddler.

In the history of Nigeria, there's never been any challenge competition, even before Nigeria was created, the SW was ahead and leading by miles.

During regional administration, the SW was the prime achiever with so many firsts in Nigeria from the first skyscraper, TV station, stadium, industrial estates, and so on, but the SE was mute, not a single achievement, just regional and leadership failure, we were never in the same league and still not till today.

The SW is your daddy anytime any day..

The SW was and still is the place you run to for survival and your daily bread, no competition, just assume your place in the back.
