This guy's should be merged with Benin kingdom. Although I know Benin kingdom is by far the real owner of Lagos and whole SW in dynasty.

But those hypocritical people will always like to take glory for job they did not do.
Thanks for your contribution. I guess you have stopped worrying about how IPOB's going to take over River state.

Oba of Benin called himself som of Oranmiyan, since he descended from Oranmiyan. Or is Oranmiyan an Ibo man?

Try to seperate the Oba of Benin (Royal) from the Ogiamen/Ogiso (original Bini people), then maybe you will be able to think properly.

If Benin was an historically insignificant kingdom will all the Yorubas say oba of Benin is Yoruba?

What about the less significant kingdoms in Benin Republic did Yoruba ever deny them?

Suspending them won’t suspend the truth. What they said is incontrovertible and they all know it. Even though we don’t need Benin for anything, we won’t allow them to distort our history.

We thought them everything from setting up their monarchy to teaching them how to make bronzes and how to set up and manage an empire. We even gave them the name “Benin”. Without Oranmiyan, there won’t be an Oba of Benin. So, what’s there to keep denying?

I said it! Some stupid Yoruba kids were insulting me here.!!!

Which Bini man , which true son of bini soil will accept the insults these Yorubas dare to us daily ?!

We are not related to Yoruba !! We have nothing in common. With Yoruba !!!

I hate anything that involves us with Yoruba!!!!

Let the southwest stay on their own and mind their business.

Niger delta has nothing to do with Yoruba..the famzing is irritating.
These people don't realize how much they hated sha. They actually live in a delusion that anyone sees anything good in them hence the need to always poke nose and try to form brotherhood.

I spit whenever I see them here in Bini. I slapped the idiot yoruba boy who dared insult oba in my presence.

I slapped him so hard he nearly collapsed. How dare you say Oba is under yoruba kings ?!!!

If I had my way , no yoruba person will ever be allowed into Edo state , talkless of renting or wining property.

They are hateful disrespectful and arrogant. angry

Is dislike these people with every fiber of my being. If I had my way .... No yoruba will ever......

Let me no talk angry

If only you know how we feel about you guys ehn. Una go dey run avoid us.

The Bini are a different people Ogiamen with a language called Edoid.
However, their Oba was sired by a Yoruba man called Oranmiyan which the king himself confirmed.

Right, the fact that one Man is related to some people does not mean the entire race are from the same source.

Where does that word "Oba" come from. It's clearly Yoruba

Common sense should tell you that it is "HE" that is from Ile Ife, and not "THEY" The Benin are not from Yoruba land, the Present Oba might be..

According to the Ogisos/Ogiamen, Oduduwa is a Yoruba man. They have zero record of anyone called Oduduwa or erakadehran.

There are also NO historical books/article that mentioned Oduduwa coming from bini. It's a recent creation from people trying to distort history.

Oduduwa is an Oke-Ora man just east of Ife. He came from an hilly side dwelling in Ora.
how can someone that descended from the sky be a Yoruba man. ? Una matter tire person.
Re: Benin Traditional Council Suspends Five Chiefs For Pledging Alliance To Ooni by Dennisochampa: 7:31am On Apr 28
We the Benin people are not owned by anyone...
Benin is Benin and Yoruba is Yoruba...
The enemies of Nigeria are just trying to create divisions by all these stupid claims...

Why does it even matter?
Are we not all Nigerians??

Will Yoruba people come to claim a land in Benin or will the Benin people go and claim lands in a Yoruba speaking state??

All these claims are rubbish and I feel they are a tool for sowing seeds of division amongst people...

As for those chieves, I wonder what they were smoking to make them go and sell Benin tradition to Ile Ife....
Their suspension should be made permanent please..
No one should be allowed to go free after attempting such abominable acts

The Yoruba Internet warriors are a big part of the problem.

There is nothing wrong if Oba of Benin traces his lineage back to Ife. Both the Oba and the Ooni are comfortable with the true story.

But this new Internet generation have turned the whole thing into 'Yoruba owns Edo', 'Edo is Yoruboid' etc None of these is correct.

Edos are a proud people, with a distinct culture and civilisation. They're not Yoruboid and don't want to hear that nonsense.

I don't see why the Oba having Yoruba lineage should be a problem. If anything, it is something to be celebrated and honoured by him and the Ooni and used to bring their 2 people together.

The Oba of Benin is probably concerned that his people will hold his self-confessed Yoruba lineage against him. That is understandable in the context of petty political and civic rivalries that Africans in particular excel at.

People, particularly some of these Yoruba internet youths should butt out of this matter and let Edo people be.

yorubas are proud people and we don’t do attachĂ© by force like some people do, what the population of Benin people compared to the Yorubas? Who cares if they chose to be on their own? But what we will not accept is the distortion of our history and all the nonsense talk of how Benin own Lagos. Yorubas are a progressive tribe and we don’t need any other tribe to validate how superiority in the scheme of things.. we are very good in our own skin grin

This has never been contested.

If you believe what he said , you should also believe that Oduduwa was a Benin prince which is part of what he said.

Chief Sam Igbe- a Dinosaur and a warrior. The 5 Chiefs should be quiet and not join issues in their own interest.They should seek forgiveness at a later date or else they will be smothered and crushed.

Its good to know this intelligent and erudite gentleman is still alive and also the Iyase of Benin of today. The Binis will be rest assured that the ship is still on course even with a Digital and Aviator glass wearing Oba on the throne

You don't have to throw snides to state your point. You are not wiser than the OBA and people who wrote the Benin history.
Everybody came from somewhere, where did Benin people came from?

Be intelligent, from all legitimate historical writes and oral sources, Benin are from Ile Ife, the OBA of Benin is from Ile ife.
The Ooni of Ile Ife is the head of all Yoruba and even some other people who aren't Yoruba's

Wait till I get my 3rd Benin woman as wife. You guys claimed to be civilised yet what's coming out of your mouth stings. Without the Yorubas, who will help you guys cultivate your lands and forest that you abandoned? Who is giving Edo the cocoa producing glory you have today if not us? The Yorubas can cope anywhere they go (bush or city centers) but you guys find it difficult to stay in fellow Nigerian land because of your dirty behaviour. Instead you will rather go and do slave in Italy.
