Wasted pussy... Chai... The gods like better thing Ooo. The gods didn’t go for ‘Nkiru’ the slave; instead it chose the princess....

I follow a channel on youtube and when they talk about history like this its unbelievable how they have monumental archives and still have letters dated back to centuries to back up their claims but here in Africa even our history of few hundred years ago is nowhere to be found, nothing so most times its sound like a myth to the ears.

Savages

Watched a movie based on this story

A neighbor from Anyingba told me this story.

How Igalas defeated Queen Amina of Zaria during their wars.

Or a movie screen

We opened verified wechat and alipay wallet

She wasted her life in Vain

Fallacy

Her statue should be in Idah market right?

TeamSimple:
Well if some people can believe someone died for their sins, who am I to talk bad of the ‘savior princess’. It just common sense . Foreign stories vs Traditional stories .

shey dat na true self??

Interesting story. Just the way I heard it.
Just don't know how this relates to some of their towns not allowed to dig wells cos they think it's the blood of the Princess that will ooze out..... I really suffered at Ugwolawo.
Had to run away! Mo Japa

Igala were no match for the Benin, we had guns from trading with the Europeans and we were never defeated until the British shamelessly and cowardly attack when we were at the weakest point.

Now, who is Princess Inikpi, whom history records as being buried alive and how? if she was indeed a princess, how could her father, the king permit such atrocity? Princess Inikpi's story is one emanating from an inevitable consequence of history and not an accident of history. The history of the Igala kingdom will surely not be complete without recollecting the very important role of princess Inikpi. she was a very beautiful woman, from the royal family, a heroine with great attributes, her story is that of selfless commitment and sacrifice to the course and survival of the Igala nation.

According to historical records, a war was imminent between the Bini kingdom and the Igalas. Nowhere was safe in Igala land anymore. The farmlands were already cordoned off by the enemies and the streams poisoned so that anyone that drank from them would die. The Igalas feared imminent death from starvation and lack of water. When oracle was consulted, it proclaimed that a reversal of their misfortune and victory in the war could only come when the princess, the only daughter of the king is buried alive.

Princess Inikpi was the only beloved daughter of Ayegbu Oma Idoko, the Atta of Igala kingdom. when he was informed of the only solution to forestall the destruction of his homeland by the Oracle through some eunuch in his palace, he was crushed and heartbroken and sheded tears. He earnestly wished there was an alternative. For days, he could not eat nor drink. The princess noticed how downcast her father was and asked to know the reason behind his sadness. Instead of opening up, he held off telling her the story for seven days, but on the eight, he relented and told her the words of the Oracle.

Princess Inikpi did not object, she did not fight. She went voluntarily on that day to the bank of River Niger, where she was buried alive. It was a sad resolution but the Igala people hailed her for her heroism. after the sacrifice, the story went on that as the Bini armies advanced to swoop, they saw the whole town in FLAMES and retreated feeling that there was no need taking war to a place already on fire; but it was the blood of Inikpi that deceived them.

Nah this kind script all this nollywood producers suppose dey use act film..not all this regina spider girl � and all those nonsense

Thank God for Christianity...

Why couldn't the bloodsucking deity nd it's stupid priests that asked for the sacrifice perform the magic without sacrificing a human!

How can I even unread this biko?

You misunderstand. Read the old testament and count how many blood sacrifices was made by the priests and offered to God. It was not until the ultimate sacrifice was made that all that stopped in the Bible. That sacrifice being the son of God. The gods always require a sacrifice and none is more potent than human blood.

As long as you can't unread that of a Jewish man dying for your sins?

I'm a Christian though, but I respect people's history

Who will honour the slaves that were buried along with her?

in ijebu land , ijebu-ode in particular, an ifa priest sacrificed himself for water to be driven out of the ijebu-ode.
Oniseemu is the ifa priests name

Nairaland fp is filled with bullshit stories as usual

It's just that our historians has not welcomed the spirit of the acting business

eTECTIV:
Dat was how we were also told Oduduwa fell from d sky... Myth or history? Sounds more like myth

Oduduwa didn’t fall from the sky, he descended with a staff called “Opa Oranmiyan’ the first place he stepped his feet was ile-ife..

I will like to read full story of this princess who has demonstrated a true love by laying her life to redeem her people to Almighty God.

I have also heard about a man "Igo" who laid down his life to librate his people from the hands of the evil in a place called Somorika in Northern part of Edo State.

Until Africans look inwardly and ask question about their origin and the sacrifice made by God sent men/women who has demonstrated love through sacrifice to free them from the hands of the enemies during Exodus, we will continue to live under mental slavery of a story and believe of a religion by aliens.
