He is right to say that but Itsekiri origin still remains Yoruba. grin
Nope, yoruba origin remains: dahomey, oyo, Brazilian slave returnees, jebu...it is totally artificially created.
The itsikeri are Edo people, a true people which had it's country before the British created Nigeria.

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.

He doesn’t understand Ginuwa met people he Lord over.

Ginuwa himself is Yoruba. grin

You seem out of arguments: after I provided superior logics, you ran towards the words of a senile old man claiming he was a high ranking Iwere chief, I provided you the words of the Olu of warri, but you pretend you didn't hear:

Conclusion : logics are against your claim and also ranking within Iwere kingdom is against your claim.

Ever read his books?

Verily I tell u as years pass
Soyinka would begin to seek advice from chimamanda.
I do not joke on this.
Adichie should have won this year's Nobel laureate.
Sadly only white haired men were favourites.
Why was she left gut wrenched?.. Imaginary racism must have cost her much as Achebe's fate.
Congratulations to yet another son of Africa, Abdulrazak Gurnah. As he marvels at Soyinka's, truly, great recognizes great.

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.
There u go again with ur one-sided thinking

I do not think we igbos are better than other tribes, I only believe we've got some few commendable achievements

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.
Exactly the point, when the British arrived, we all ceased to be Bini, Yoruba, Ibo, Hausa. We all became British for being ruled over by the queen. Itsekiri stopped being Yoruboid and became Bini by virtue of a prince sojourner into the land. How shallow your brain thinks.

What do you not get in "Ginuwa story is a story, nor reality !"
The only observable fact is that irsikeri are Edo people and alway have been, the eyewitness records testify to that. Stop going in circles.
