dabidnaze e pain u well if u like scream coward louder than the ibo man it won’t change that fact that the people u earlier attacked and won with the use of modern warfare came back right to the heart of ur kingdom and conquer ur land led by the courageous ogedengbe Benin boys bow to their knee and beg the ekiti warriors to have mercy I have never seen any bother as weak as that u can’t even fight back shior I spit in Benin weaklings.
Don't be rude boy, where did you keep your manners?
That's no way to talk to your first colonial masters. We colonized you, ruled you, took you as slaves and when your second colonial masters(The British) came and started lumping you guys on Europe bound ships like sardines, it was the same Edos (your eternal benefactors) that were once again saving many yorubas from the whites from being sold to slavery INA foreign land. I am sure, one or more of your forefathers must have been a beneficiary of this Edo generous gesture otherwise, you probably would have been a citizen of Sierra Leone today.

I dont blame you for your ignorance but your Oba Erediuwa that conjure a classified fable on Yoruba history in your huts kingdom. Little do you know that David Van Nyendael,Olfert Dapper wrote about Bini declination.Your smallish city was bewitched with retrogressive knowledge of human sacrifice and slave trade that even depopulated Bini. Is Bini a kingdom or a community? Whatever you like, call it ,but the truth is that ,you are a bloody irrelevant group as at today. Do you know why? You lost you touch with your source. Even Oba Bini, even threatened your Ashewos and others with Juju. This only showed that you're indeed a land of vexation . Bloody set of Yoruba followers, that learned about Olokun ,Ogun.Ifa etc from Yorubas. Even itsé is a borrowed word from asé ,which you borrowed has no etymology in Edo language. I mock you.
So you believe the white mans excuse of human sacrifice in Benin to invade our kingdom lol.. an excuse they still use till this day whenever they want to invade any nation that doesn’t agree with them.
Well it is not news that Yorubas are the most brainwashed Africans on earth.. I sorry for your people.

As for human sacrifices and rituals who does that if not the Yorubas? Everyday u hear news of children, women, people being used for rituals in Yoruba lands.. Hardly you will hear that news any other place in Africa only Yoruba..
You guys are doomed..

Lol... and yet the Yorubas are the universally acclaimed cowards and weaklings.. abeg answer your generational name, no give another person..
na u and ur brother ibo give the name coward to Yoruba not fact. No let’s talk about coward in less than 24 hours the whole edo land was seize by biafra forces led by victor banjo and a colonial governor imposed on u that has to be the shortest conquest I have ever heard, but thesame biafra forces were sent packing in ore when they try to invade Yoruba land. Coward like u can’t stand ur ground against ibo forces who have no history of ever defeating anyone u were there first. Ibo like a virgin had their first taste of conquest by fucking Benin boys in the ass chai.

Are you babaramota’s cousin? Because he is the only one who make the dumbest and most moronic statement like this..
do u know the meaning of legends?
We celebrate and touts our heroes not our legends..
so you can continue to sing about your legend of the man descending from the skies in chains or of the man that can draw fire and thunder from the heavens it’s ur business..
Name your legend, Mr.man? Proof to us you have nothing associated with Yorubas. Edo people even went as far as making some Yoruba names sacred..... Just imaging these set of people that can't name their children Yoruba names of their king? You only referred to them as 'Royal names' in your lexicon. Bloody irrelevant set of people. In fact ,if Oba Binis aren't strangers, why do they bear names that other Edos don't answer? I will continue to punish you for my ancestor's sake.

chai don’t cry I know it hurts but the past is the past just cause yoruba had their turn colonize u and British took their turn then Yoruba again doesn’t mean u are a failure well it kinda does. Till today yoruba have leave their mark on u like a runaway slave. When u bear name like Dele and someone ask u if u were Yoruba even though u are edo that’s a long lasting mark my boy accept ur master mark he’ll be proud of it ok boyioo

Moneywoman you make me laugh anytime I read ur clownish posts.. I don’t like calling you slowpoke even though you keep acting like one..
Every article worldwide describes Benin Kingdom as the only existing and independent African Kingdom in the 18th century.. The only Kingdom to have retained its independence from European colonialists.
I guess you don’t understand the meaning of that that’s why u keep making ur rubbish statements..
lol see this dumbass u mean the oyo empire that was still strong till the end of the 18c didn’t exist or the Hausa city states that have not been conquered by Fulani didn’t exist. Where the Bleep did u get ur own fact dumbass. Let me give u an assignment name one African kingdom just one that fell to the Europeans in the 18c

While you guys keep defending and denying Benin conquest and suzerainty over the Yorubas do you see any Edo man talking about Ogedengbe? We don’t bother about that because it never happened. Even if u go to the village you claim the coward ogedengbe invaded they will tell u they have no recollection of it..
Ogedengbe sneaked unnoticed and attacked some farm settlements on our northwest border and quickly fled when he was informed of an advancing Benin army..

Reminder for you: Great Benin conquered and ruled your race for at least 500yrs.
chai see painment the Yoruba warriors conquest is still evident on u lot till today my advice u can’t run from the past accept ur Yoruba master it will save u from this heartache u can at least be happy that u are no longer under them today. Ogedengbe suyanized Benin boys no be small.

dumbass like u who told u name like usman is Hausa name. Those are Islamic name dumbass soon u will tell us that buhari is Fulani name or that sanusi is Fulani name too. Ur people bear full Yoruba name with only Yoruba interpretations coz of colonial history of Yoruba over u simple. E pain u well
I knew you will stupidly fall for the trap being the slowpoke that you are. Usman is the Hausa version of the name. Meanwhile, I've seen yorubas bear real hardcore Hausa names like Maigida. So is that one also an Islamic name? Ode! So you accept your culture is inferior to Hausa culture. Isn't that just a shame.

This is why you people still worship the very ground those Hausa Fulani walk on and kiss their feet's at every opportunity.

But you stupidly forgot that not only Edo bear Yoruba names, even Yoruba also bear Edo names. Obanikoro, an Edo name is being borne by people who call themselves Yoruba today. Bajulaiye is a corruption of Bazuaye.

Yoruba has no pride nor honor and that explains why many of your people are renouncing their Yoruba identity and taking up Hausa Fulani identity. That's a sign of implosion.

Who told you Yorubas don't do human sacrifice like others did? The difference is that your Edo kingdom thought human sacrifice will help you win wars against Yorubas, Nupe ,Kwarafas but you all failed because human sacrifices couldn't save you all but war strategies. Yoruba were warriors that fought Nupe, Tapa,Dahomey, Hausas and always ended victorious . Do you doubt? Sultan Mohammed that told clapperton about Yorubas and accused Yorubas of selling the captured Hausas to Christians . Edo was not known for wars but Art work and pepper sale. I mock you
Below is your wasted lifestyle despite you claim your Oba sent his appointed son to visit Portugal, yet in futility. See what David Van Nyendael and Olfert Dapper, who are researchers said about Bini Kingdom

British think of you people as barbaric savages that needed to burnt at stake ... the order given by the British was to capture your king and hang him and his chiefs ..But they spare the king and hung the senior chiefs openly as a deterrent for other like you people ...

This is you wiping you tears after a good spank. But don't worry, the Edos tried their best to save you from slavery, but the stigma is for a lifetime. Everyone knows yorubas are slaves, cowards, lilly livered bastards who only do well in noise making.
Bow to your supreme masters. Even the entire culture of Owo was basically substituted to become just like that of Benin and it has remained so till tomorrow.

And the pitiful thing about you yorubas is that you are the only Africans that joins the British to accuse Benin of human sacrifice.. Others have questioned it because they know it’s a big lie.. when the British defeated Benin they claimed hundreds of human sacrifices littered the streets but yet all the pictures they took was of them looting the palace, pictures of artifacts, pictures of Benin prisoners.. why didn’t they take pictures of the sacrifices they claimed they saw?
And you Yorubas joined them to say it’s true.. well I see it as a payback from you guys, payback for the centuries of subjugation we put ur fathers lol. But in paying back you choose to be the dogs of the whiteman and enslaved yourself.. that’s why ur Oni and Obas don’t know the meaning of dignity.. He goes about bowing for people lesser than him looking for egunje..
I sorry for your race.

That they didn't kill the king was a mark of respect, but the Edos knowing yorubas to be cowards didn't accord them such respect since after all, your people were just marketable slaves and that's why the Oba of Benin had the Deji of Akure beheaded openly before his subjects.

e pain u well show me where Yoruba person that bear maigada liar there was no bait taken dumbass and there is no Hausa version of any name dumbass let me explain it to u well so u understand. Osman is spelled as usman in Nigeria but it’s still pronounce as osman same with Bokhari called buhari but still pronounce as bokhari. The spelling is only the way it was written down not a change but ur dumbass won’t know that. U are the only one saying Hausa culture is superior to yoruba not me. Second obanikoro is an edo descendant who have assimilate into Yoruba which explain his last name just like oshidi tapa and others. E pain u well osaz Yoruba culture is intact that’s why ur people are naming their children Yoruba worshipping yoruba gods kiss the truth.
