Africa will remain forever backward since the belief in spirits and witch craft outweighs the belief in science and technology.
The man cursed, yes, trafficking probably reduced but the Esan and other non Benin criminals are still plying their trade on the regular.

Esans are also Benins, get educated before commenting.

Crossboy:
I Mean The Oba They Tear Gased

I am tired of how the Yoruba just put efforts into bastardising the title of the Emperor of Benin empire. Each Yoruba village head is now calling himself Oba. The likes of the ooni and the alafin have already given up their own titles and have attached the word Oba to their names.

Not according to a video which trended on this same forum. A Benin girl based in Italy was complaining saying her Esan madam reminded her she wasn't off the hook yet -- claiming the Oba's curse only affects Benin people and no one else from Edo State.

Daviddson:
And how does their opinion change who you really are?

Wait a minute!. So, you still don't get it?

Using his language and education, he has tricked your mind to think that god is inferior to God. He has convinced you that the God that answered the Oba's prayer is an evil inferior God that only does "evil" according to you.

But according to ancient records, the European Gods originated from the so called pagan African religions that spread to North Africa and the Middle East in ancient time. In fact, the Gnostics (ancient religious sect) said that the European God is an evil God who's sole purpose is to control humanity, to stop us from knowing the real God, but they turned it around against us.

The lecture below throws more light on this.

I'm sorry to disappoint if you're looking for an argument. I've moved on to the next news article.

TonyeBarcanista:
And Oba of Benin cannot curse corrupt politicians

He governs the soil where Human traffic got rooted. It is Buhari's job to do so. But, People like you won't agree.

Daviddson:
BENIN CITY, Nigeria (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - For almost two decades, 42-year-old Patience earned a steady income sending girls from Nigeria to Europe for sex work, using black magic to stop the women from fleeing.
Now she is afraid the illegal trade could kill her.
During a ceremony in March, Oba Ewuare II, leader of the historic kingdom of Benin in southern Nigeria, invoked curses on anyone who used witchcraft to aid illegal migration.
Since then, anecdotal evidence suggests the trafficking has slowed although it is too soon for firm data to be collated.
At least nine in every 10 Nigerian women trafficked to Europe come from Edo, a mostly Christian state of 3 million people, according to the U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime (UNDOC). Many came through the hands of women like Patience, who supplements her income as a hairdresser by selling girls into overseas sex work - but the leader’s ceremony has stopped that.

“I didn’t hear directly from his mouth but, through the radio and television. The Oba has stopped everything,” Patience told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in her home in Benin, where she lives with her husband and four children.
“Whenever I go out, I meet girls who beg me to take them to Europe but I refuse because I don’t want to die. Everybody is afraid.”

“No one will ever come here again,” said David Ubebe, a juju priest who for eight years attended to a flow of women bringing girls to swear oaths at his shrine as well as phone calls from madams in Europe asking him to compel girls to pay them.
He used to earn an undisclosed income for each black magic ritual he performed, boasting his powers could make someone menstruate nonstop or lose peace of mind, but is nowhere to be too nervous to defy the ban.
Meanwhile Patience is convinced a madam she knows in Europe has fallen ill because she defied the Oba by trying to extort more money from a girl and no one can diagnose her illness.
“It is the effect of the curse placed by the Oba on those who cheat. That is the reason why she is sick,” she said.

Restructure. The Empire of Benin can restructure without the government. And it can restructure without Christianity, which seems always to be in the way because it doesn't fit the traditional religion and government. So the way to proceed is to restructure the traditional government and the traditional religion as this was done in Oyotunji in America.

Your religious conviction will influence which one you'll know to be truth. And BTW, Europeans also have their own gods just as there are in Africa here! Every European is not automatically a believer in the Christian God.

The Europeans who don't believe the Christian God don't consider the one they believe as inferior God "only doing evil" which is your perception of African Gods. As far as they're concerned, all the God's are equal.

OK, feel free to believe whatever God you want. But the moment you understand the concept of God, you will realise the Hindu God, Buddhist God, Islam God, African Gods, Jewish God, Shinto God, Christian God, etc is equal and the same, and that none is superior to the other.

See you later.

The stats are amazing: Edo has only 3 million people, yet 9/10 of the girls trafficked to Europe are from there? Wow!!!

Thank Ogun that Oba of Benin has issued his own curse and that people are fearing it.

I hope he didn't extend his curse to local-trafficking... we in Asaba depend on our Edo girls coming through

booblacain:
The scare will only last a while. After a while they will get back their confidence and call bluffs on the oba's curse.

Now that there's a curse, his enforcers will also actively decimate those who call his bluff.
But I think it also will free the girls mentally because they believe that the traffickers' witchcraft can't stand up to Oba's curse - Oba has the backing of the gods.

Daviddson:
There's a difference bro. A lot of difference. God is the Creator of the world Universe and its inhabitants while gods are Satan's demons. The Jesus definition of gods that He says we are, is different from the gods that demons are. Capitalization is very important to make the difference clear.

I'd be careful with using one culture's ideas to demonize another culture's: truth is, every culture has its creation myths... the Christian one is the currently prevailing one, propagated at the point of arrows and guns, and most attractive to the downtrodden of society. It doesn't necessarily mean it's the sole truth. It didn't exist for nearly 300,000 years of humanity (unless you believe the Universe was created 6000 years ago, in Genesis), and may become a forgotten relic 2000 years from now.

In all that time, many many religions have come up in our quest to understand the world around us, all self-assuredly confident that they were the true way.

They're NOT the same, bro. But to repeat myself, your stand will depend on your religious conviction - whether you're an atheist or agnostic or deist or theist, a cultural Christian or a born again Christian.

Fool, Asaba is part of Benin Kingdom.
Besides, the figure is nothing but fake news.
It is just not logically possible.

Bro, when someone gives you language, education, religion, its almost impossible to make you realise you're living an illusion. What you call "religious conviction" is an illusion tricking your mind to believe its your choice. But in reality it's a conviction that those who gave you religion has picked for you.

The "religious conviction" you now have became a religious conviction in West Africa from the 19th century. Before this period, Africans had known God for over 100, 000 years when Jehovah or Allah or Jesus or Muhammad or Europeans didn't exist. All these Gods that now form your religious conviction are new Gods given to us by our enemies after conquering our lands. So, your present religious conviction is a religious conviction you didn't have until your enemy conquered you and compelled you to worship him and his God.

What are you calling me names for? I made a lighthearted joke hoping the curse will not prevent our Benin/Edo girls from coming to ply their trade in Asaba. When did that become a discussion on politics?

vanbonattel:
Where's the oba to curse fulani herdsmen rampaging through Edo farms?

Lol you don't understand. The curse will only work against those who request the Bini ancestral deities to mediate/enforce contracts (though fraudulent) imposed on the trafficked girls. Ewuare II is the custodian of those particular deities.

prolog2:

Idiot, the Oba cursed every evil doers in the ancient Benin Kingdom, that includes the herdsmen who attacked farms in the past and who are ravageing the entire nigerian state. Now get lost.
Also, it is Omo n'Oba n'Edo.

Must you call me names to state your point? Why are you so pained bro? I'm not responsible for misfortune dude, please channel it to right person..

See pain, anger and frustration....

Daviddson:
I can actually testify to the fact that since the man issued that curse earlier this year, I've read about many human traffickers in Benin being busted and arrested. Isn't this a good omen? And who has answered this man's prayer - God or the gods of his ancestors?
It's complicated, because I know those gods can only do evil - they can't fight evil that human trafficking and prostitution is.
Lalasticlala what sayest thou? There's a difference bro. A lot of difference. God is the Creator of the world Universe and its inhabitants while gods are Satan's demons. The Jesus definition of gods that He says we are, is different from the gods that demons are. Capitalization is very important to make the difference clear.

Exactly my point, 'gods' are not synonymous to demons alone.

I said "according to a video I watched" in a reply to someone else.
The person who made the claim in the video was Esan.
Now, since you're ready to bring back an argument I deliberately avoided before I will move on to another article.

Those are probably not Edo girls in Asaba. The Edo girls that do that type of work go to Italy.
Tribalism is never good sir. The joke wasnt funny
Nobody here made rude jokes about Asaba people.
