Burgcudi:Benin was never an empire. Them get Calvary and how many be them military? |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by Salewa97: 5:44am On Feb 06 |
galantjoe:This is the first time I am hearing Ekumeku. What da FAQ is that? We are talking about empires here, not some mushroom unknown warriors. Who dash Ekumeku empire? |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by Salewa97: 5:45am On Feb 06 |
Karlovich:Ojukwu will be number one. Emagine a Geniral runeing disg1sed like a w0man. Then next Azikiwe that fasta fosto to the UK when he learnt about the 1966 coup. |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by Salewa97: 5:49am On Feb 06 |
helinues:Thatโs the doctrine. You must expand your land and conquer territories. |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by galantjoe(m): 5:50am On Feb 06 |
Salewa97:Igbo do not believe in kingship and empire. They live in communities without king. But did organize themselves whenever there was a common threat to various community. That was how Ekumeku warriors was formed to fight British imperialism in Igbo land. That was why igboland was nation that was colonized in Nigeria colonisation history |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by helinues: 5:51am On Feb 06 |
Salewa97:Abi, that's why one fairy tale book was busy shouting conquered the land, conquered the land as a real estate agent already assured/ promised them some lands. My own curiosity is, why already occupied land |

Which smelly Oyo cavalry? |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by galantjoe(m): 5:58am On Feb 06 |
Salewa97:Let me explain what it means. The Ekumeku War Movement consisted of a series of uprisings against the rising power of the Royal Niger Company of the British Empire by Anioma Igbo people. The British penetration of Nigeria met with various forms of resistance throughout the country. In the south, the British had to fight many wars. Facts About Ekumeku Movement Date 1883โ1914 Location : Onicha-Olona, Ogwashi, Igbuzo, Okpanam, Issele-Asagba, Ubulu-Uku, Obior, Umunede, Other Aniocha Result: British victory after 30years Territorial changes: Establishment of the Southern Nigeria Protectorate |

At the end of the day, empires come and go!!! But the will power of the people still remains |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by AJSfan: 6:04am On Feb 06 |
galantjoe:Ekumeku is an igbo word but notable figures in that war were from Edo like Ologbosere. It was more of guerilla war, a resistance to British incursion after they raided Benin Empire |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by colossus91(m): 6:04am On Feb 06 |
Them no gree put the Carthage army that keppt giving the grea Roman Empire issues lol not very suprised make Una go read the Punic wars!! |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by Helinuse: 6:06am On Feb 06 |
We must not lie just because we want to join others in a story. There is nothing like the Oyo Calvary. We only know of the Oyo Empire. |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by AJSfan: 6:06am On Feb 06 |
chiagozien:Every Empire listed there eventually fell. Emperors are oppressors and along the line there is internal and external resistance. No Emire came close to Oyo Empire when it comes to land grabbing and conquest covering almost 4 west African countries |

galantjoe:๐คซ Nobody asked you to explain nonsense. You go explain tire because nobody cares. Ekukumukuku or whatever you call it is only recognized by your people. |

richiemcgold:Oyo calvary was sucking breast where Ekumeku warriors dey. Most of Igbo societies did not have king. Ancient Igbo relied on Nri kingdom as their spiritual guiders. Even Nri kingdom is not land grabber as old Oyo empire was. NRI kingdom had influence over all Igboland and beyond without grabbing land. Do you that Igbo front Nri kingdom formed Benin kingdom later Benin formed oduduwa kingdom before the greediness led them to form Oyo empire or Oyo land grabbing |
| Re: Greatest Military Empire From Each Country by madridguy(m): 6:17am On Feb 06 |
Oyo calvary is not mate to anyone.. |
