Ashipa was rewarded with the title of the Oloriogun (War leader) and he received the Oba of Benin’s sanction to govern Lagos on his behalf. These small fries Binis,they are lizards who see themselves as crocodiles ! They just keep exposing themselves in their futile attempt to make themselves what they're not ! Now,take a look at the highlighted word up there: "Oloriogun", that's a clear Yoruba word, no controversy ! This means that who ever sent "Ashipa",another Yoruba word,to Lagos then was,certainly,a Yoruba man ! Lol, Olori = Head, Ogun = War ! Oloriogun or Balogun in Yoruba language means "a Leader of warriors". Ashipa is a common chieftaincy tittle that's found everywhere in Yorubaland. As a matter of facts,all the underlisted words are well rooted in Yoruba language but are today being used by the Binis. They ordinary have no meanings in Bini language : * Iyaoba (Iya Oba) = The King's mother. * Ayaoba (Aya Oba) = The King's wife/wives. *Olori or Olorioba = The King's senior wife. *Oba = coined from OBAtala,the first king in Yoruba land. * Ashipa (Ashipaogun) = High ranked warrior who prepares other or lesser warriors for battle /war. * Oyegun = a name that's common among the people from the family or lineage of well respected traditional chieftaincy tittle holders. *All the deties inside the palace of Oba of Benin are all indigenous Yoruba deties - Ogun, Sango,Oya, Yemoja-Olokun,Osun,etc ! Oba of Benin is a Yoruba man. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Krismas: You be mumu ! The point is; Oduduwa came from a foreign land to Ile Ife but he neither spoke nor understood Bini language ! If he was a Bini man as you want the whole world to believe,there would have been some deeply rooted Bini words and language in Yoruba language today but none exists ! It is even otherway round;you Binis are the ones using some of our words in your day to day activities today ! Ponder over it ! 2 Likes |

VEHINTOLAR:The yorubas are the GREATEST borrowers of Bini terms! For example, Kpataki or important in Yoruba is borrowed from the Bini word Kpotoki, which was a mispronunciation of Portuguese. In delta state there is still the OLOROGUN family to show u Oloriogun of the Yoruba was borrowed. They take so many terms from Bini, get too used to the terms and now claim it was theirs in the first place |

Oduduwa came from the Benin Kingdom. So, if the Father of the Yorubas came from Benin, that means Benin Kingdom owns not only Lagos, but the entire Yoruba land. |

lexy2014: Yes Oba of Benin was wrong in his claim that was why we said Yorubas were in Lagos with even a Moba kingdom there before Oduduwa was born they later assimilated with the Awori people All Oba's of Benin descended from Oduduwa Do you know that the first Ogiso Obagodo who founded Igodomigodo was from Ile Ife and founded Igodomigodo with his followers who were at least part of a Pre Oduduwa. population of Igodomigodo Oya wetin you want talk The first Ogiso Obagodo was from Ile Ife too 2 Likes

Krismas: If Ooni of Ife turns up to Claim the Benin Throne and Kingdom now he too is very correct Do you know that the Coronation of the Oba Of Benin cannot be Completed until the Ooni sends him a Traditional Staff of Office Of course you are so proficient at denying the Truth and will deny it It is sent to all Oba's of Oduduwa Ancestry and if you go to any Obas Palace they will show you the Staffs of all the Previous Obas That is one of the ways they keep count of the number of Obas that have ruled any place All their Obas Previous Staffs are kept in a secluded place in their Palaces Ooni of Ife must also send them a Special beaded necklace which symbolizes his approval of their Coronation as Oba The Itsekiri didn't even claim to be founders of Lagos 1 Like |

VEHINTOLAR: In matters like this, I try to be as respectful as possible. Kindly go online, do a little research, then come back and refute any point I raised. Meanwhile: 1. Oduduwa didn't come from the sky. 2. He couldn't have been an Arabian Prince, the earliest date given for the establishment of Old Oyo was 1300 AD, no matter the age of Oduduwa, if he was Arab, he would have brought Islam then because Islam was already established in the Arabian Pennisular as at that time. 3. The most reasonable yoruba Origin story for Oduduwa claims he came from the "East". Get a map and check which was the most prominent Kingdom or society East of Ife as at that time. We don't do insults, we do facts. |

Christistruth00:Oduduwa came from Benin. Wen he was asked to return, he sent his grandson Oranmiyan. Who tried to straighten the power tussle in Bini, b4 leaving to to reign as Alafin in Oyo. Dats the history. How den can Ooni claim Benin throne? |

Krismas: Oduduwa was born at Oke Ora at Ile Ife his People were believed to be of Gobir or Kanuri Stock and till today Kanuri still claim that some of their Ancestors were Yemeni though I believe they were Blacks driven out of Sudan by religious Jihads because the Sudanese have tribal marks similar to the Kanuri and Yorubas and some Kanuri are actually indigenous to the Darfur in Sudan But some People would Poetically say he descended from Olodumare at Oke.Ora Of Course that is not what happened Oduduwa was not a Bird or a Bat 1 Like 1 Share |

Christistruth00:Oba is Benin word. The rest answering to it, borrowed it. Wen this current Oba N’edo was installed, the Ooni was in Benin to render help to him with the king makers and obviously mediate btw the Oba and the kingmakers. That’s all I know. The RESPECTED Ooni is not one of Bini kingmakers though I acknowledge his greatness |

christistruth01:As an eredo native. I will have to take your words with a pinch of salt. As an ijebu person i've always seen some difference from the Oyo and Osun and kwara type of yoruba to the ijebu, ikale/ilaje type of yoruba. The aworis are more like the osun kind of yorubas. Not until i grew to understand that the ijebu were of an east ward migration. The moba word you use is quite new to me and the eredo kingdom predate the ijebu kingdom doesnt mean the natives of those area dont see themselves ijebu. There are striking similarities between the ilaje, ikale, and itshekiri plus ijebu people dialect that has made me believe not everyone is from ile-ife but some historian are bent on forcing propaganda for reason best known to them. Giving various historical assumption on peoples lineage. Making everything look like it started from oduduwa. There is no moba people mixed with any awori. Awori are later settlers who came to dwell in lagos island. The people of ibeju who also identify as ijebu so as the people of Epe/Eredo too. Those that existed and lived within eredo during the reign of the female empress are more likely to be mix with present day ijebu. Some parts of ijebu today like ijebu-ife might be migrant from ife who identify with ijebu during the awujale reign. 1 Like |

Christistruth00 For the case of oba of benin. I see unnecessary rant by many people. Oba of benin was not a native isale eko. They were settlers there already, what they did was founding the city and its civilization. Why are some historians angry and want to distort fact when descendant of the Benin settlers are still in Lagos with their verifiable history. |

Racoon: Funny that I used to see you as being objective with your posts but you goofed big time and showed how completely ignorant you are. Now y'all present yourselves as an opposition to the Yorubas then when they act out that behaviour of opposition, you'll start crying that they hate thr Igbos. Imagine the Binis themselves not coming for the Yorubas to defend the Oba but it now seems the Igbos have made themselves compulsory enemies of the Yorubas Why would you hate people this much and expect them to treat you like friends and neighbours? 1 Like |
