Benin empire, just like Dahomy Empire was a vasal state under yoruba OYo empire, this is the fact. Yoruba Language was the lingua franca in Oba palace before the white invasion

They don't bury Obas of Benin in Lagos o

Yet I have never seen OYO Empire in any historical maps. Suffering from grandiose delusions?

Just as they believe that biblical queen 👑 of Sheba died in Yoruba. Yoruba was under Benin empire before but I don't why they love to rewrite history with fallacious impunity.

Ife use to be under Benin.
Remember that oduduwa founded ife and oduduwa was a Benin prince.
Anyway, all of these are behind us now and part of history.
Nobody is going to ask youruba to return ife or Lagos to Benin.
Let us all move on.

So if Yoruba were under Benin empire before , how come a prince from Ife , became king in benin and change their name from Ogiso to Oba , if Yoruba were under them I think it was Yoruba that suppose to adopt the title of Ogiso , not Benin changing from Ogiso to Oba .

‘The Edo people feared that their country would fall into chaos, so they asked their neighbour, the King of Ife, for help. The king sent his son Prince Oranmiyan to restore peace to the Edo kingdom. Oranmiyan chose his son Eweka to be the first Oba of Benin. ‘ you can easily google the history of Obas in Benin kingdom

Somebody like me wrote what you read on Google. If I should follow what is written, I will comfortably inform you that the Benin kingship / throne has been far in existence before iweka took over following invitation.

Are you telling me because iweka went to Benin, Yorubas are now founders of Benin?.

People can change name to suit their interest. Wether oba or ogiso, the throne has been in existence.

Remember any king can seek for help from another king when need arised. It does not mean that the helping throne can not also seek for help from another when needed

Benin throne has been in existence and also had conquered Yoruba land and discovered Lagos for slavery route before Yorubas migrated from osun , Ogun , etc to claim it.

Remember Benin kings also sold lots of Yorubas to slavery. Yorubas are claiming Lagos now cos the land is closer to their homes than Edo state.

All these things are history and I trust not it especially when it comes from hypocritical (don't deny ) people.

If it not seen anywhere then it never existed..
There are maps of every great empires even those older than fabled Oyo.. even the fulanis that conquered oyo have map, so if there is non of oyo then it never existed.
Re: Oba Of Benin Went To Ile Ife To See Where They Buried Past Oba's Of Benin by Ibalekute: 10:11pm On Nov 30, 2023
If you claim Oyo is fable, then why did you write that Fulani defeated Oyo.

The First Ogiso Obagodo who founded Igodomigodo Kingdom that later became Benin was an Ife Man

Re: Oba Of Benin Went To Ile Ife To See Where They Buried Past Oba's Of Benin by Christistruth00:

If Ooni of Ife turns up in benin and Claims the Throne and Kingdom of benin he too is also right


Ok, Let us look at the praise names of oba of benin

One of it is
Abieyuwa N'Ovbi Odua N'uhe
The son of the wealthy Odua of Uhe(Ife).
(Odua of Ife is the same as oduduwa of Ife)

Another of oba of benin's praise names is

Ovbi' Adimila
The son of Adimila
oduduwa was also known as Olofin Adimula
Which was his Title

Notice there is no mention at all of any Ekhalerderhan of Igodomigodo or izoduwa that got lost

They did not mention and neither are they looking for the lost Ekhalerderhan .

izoduwa too is not happening anywhere in oba of benin's praise names but they called Oduduwa , the great Odua of Ife his Father

So with their own mouths they themselves have already given the evidence that fully demolished and destroyed their case which had no legs to stand on in the first place and have confirmed with your own Mouth that the oba of benin was indeed oduduwa's Son
There is nothing left to drag because it is settled

Igodomigodo is now Benin

Obagodo was Yoruba for Oba Igodo

The historian who first came out with such a fallcious statement was our very own benin historian with the name Dr egharevba who had several imaginative writeups in his earliest historical works of friction, at this time the edo people was still in the western region. he wrote against the benin people to promote his carrer in the western region the benin people had found themselves although is father was a benin man his mom too was a yoruba woman from ondo state, he wrote with no authority and was not even close to the palace, his works lack referencing other than just selfish intrest his later works were he corrected most of this notion, was not made circular by the yorubas that took his baseless works serious never the less frank willet a french historian did an excavation on the very orun oba ado site in 1969 hoping to find some truth in what yoruba belive to be an historical site, all nine site the excavation took place in nothing happened to be have found in them ascertain to the earliest work of dr
Egharevba as works of friction
