I am sure if the net could slap you, it would have with that "Noble" word you used. What is noble in you? What is the culture you are talking about, apart from dancing the pot of boiling human being, hunting your fellas and selling them off as an Osu and at best fighting over Ngozi's hand in marriage in your hamlet square!!!!

The level obscurity of your Nri in the annals of history is 2nd to none.
and what culture do you ugly tribal marked people have? A Culture that can't teach yoruba women how to cook, no wonder you people have no soup.
You people Hygiene? 10%
-the same Ngozi, Amara, Olanma etc is who your yoruba men are sweating/trying to marry inorder to have a half Igbo kid.
- get out of here.

Despite that we successfully embedded our culture in the Carribeans till date.

What did your slaves achieved? Not to even talk of your past present and future Osu castes.

Hygiene is Zero in Yoruba land and the twin cesspits of Onitsha and Aba, the hell on earth, are in the land of Igbos. Says it all.

Apart from Akpu, tell us what meal you have again that is indigenous to your ethnicity. No wonder you all look like Kunta Kinte.

Which picture is Aba and Which is Ibadan (Regional capital)

It's not fair to call Aba and Onitcha 'sesspits' when they're equal to Lagos in dirtiness. Perfect equals. Igbos call those places dirty because compared to most igbo cities (Awka, Umuahia, Enugu, Owerri, PH), They're dirty.

But compared to

Ibadan, Oshogbomo, Ore, and Abeokuta...Aba and Onitsha are very clean. Lagos is the cleanest city in the SW.

Despite all that your shameless brothers still keep deserting your "super-clean" gully eroded garbage and flooding our blessed region, on a per second basis.

Sincerely, I do not have any word with you on this matter. It clearly shows you are not ashamed of your Cain-like activities of your kinsmen, if that iisthe case, you do not have any right to say rubbish about the place that is accommodating the refugees from your region that keep arriving here daily.

Does Egusi sounds Igbotically to you? Wonder shall never end. This people and ther over sabi. Na over sabi kill Jet Li and Abacha.

However, you mentioned all those soups and just to eat AKPU alone --- morning afternoon and night. I repeat, no wonder you are a replica of the Bantu tribe.

We own a lot of property in your region so it's an attractive place to be. I was in festac last week seeing colonialism in 3D. We win elections in your land, own markets, dominate the ports, and insult you freely. Come to Orlu and sell bread see what happens.

the Original name of Egusi is Egwushi soup and it is a 100% IGBO Soup.
You people don't know how to cook it.

Can you imagine, because your people stole the word and they do not know the correct spelling and it has made it yours. Abeg Abeg Abeg park well and leave thrash for lastma.

We agree we do not know how to cook. Man is not made for bread alone. Even at that, we do not eat Akpu in the morning, afternoon and night and 7 days a week. Even my dogs can never eat that way.

Ikengawo:
what house?
Oduduwa is a mythical character. Every culture has a creation myth, but Greeks won't tell you that the Japanese are Greek because they descended from Zeus and expect others not to laugh. The Oba of Benin is using historic fact while the Yorubas are using mythology that's unverified. For example, why are non of the major yoruba kingdoms headed by 'Obas'. He proved that historically the Oba of Lagos even came after the 50s and that prior the title was Eleko of Lagos which is a 100% Bini title. The Portugese acknowledged that Eko (War Camp in Bini) was a Bini settlement when they arrived there.

Why was lagos not involved in the Kirijiri Wars? Because they weren't Yoruba. Yoruba empires only ruled other Yoruba people. What's also interesting is that at no point in history did the Yoruba rule the Bini, but it's a historic fact that the Bini ruled over the Yoruba.

So saying the Oba (bini title) is a Yoruba man even though the Bini ruled the Yoruba, is like saying that the Queen of England is an Hausa title because of some mythical character.
You have no evidence to back up your claim.
The fact that jesus was reported to have walked on water and raised the
dead doesn't make him a mythical character even though the events attributed
to him never happen.

I will advise you to brush more on history, Yoruba is more of a linguistic group
than a bloodline.
If you had substantial knowledge of history you would know that inter-necine wars
was rife among the Yorubas because everyone want to independent of one another,
then it is inconsequential for you to claim that non-participatory of "eko" in kiriji wars
meant the binis were in charge.

I have two questions for you,
1.What is the official traditional title of the "oba" of benin ?
2. What is the etymological meaning(breakdoen) of "Oba" in the
bini language ?

That is not what I asked,

I only demanded to know why you concluded that Oduduwa is
not an historical figure huh

Events associated with Oduduwa are not relevant to the question.

I am surprised you ignored my other questions.

I don't think you're equip for this conversation... I say so because I said a man that fell from the sky and created the world with a chicken is a myth and you're asking me how I concluded that Oduduwa is not a historical figure..?

If we can't get past the point of accepting this is a myth then I can't discuss that with you.

You just said my mind, my assumption about your extent
of knowledge of the said "myth" was wrong.
It will be futile to further continue this discussion.
