Amujale: History will never remember you yorubas because you all always hide under the shadows of other people history and that's why history will always forget you all |

gregyboy:You're are a clown. Under the shadow of what...? Is that the reason why you try to popularise your fabrications by targeting some notable traditional institutions, religion, tradition, name and culture of Yorubas ancestry. They are under your shadow but you don't feel fulfilled until you amuse yourself with "Ogboni is not Yoruba", "Oduduwa is Edo", Oranmiyan never lived" "The Oba contrived with the Yorubas to sell us cheap". How many Yorubas have you seen jumping around Nairaland like a restive ghost creating threads on Edo subjects? If your history is still alive, if it is not buried under the shadow of another culture do you have to exert this energy to tell your history in this ridiculous way? Everything you had are no longer identifiable with you because they were stolen from you. What were you doing when other were stealing from you and thriving with the sytem you claim you originated? Ogboni belongs to you - you have no evidence to prove it does You own the word "Oba" - Yet the word has no meaning in your lexicon (Or can I say my pen is an Oba too because it is red and it shines?) Oba sold you cheap - nothing to prove it than undue and unfounded sentiments 6 Likes 1 Share |

Moneywomen17: Listen a true king have a full unabridged title. In the case of Oba of Benin it is “Omo N’Oba N’Edo”.. for example the Queen of England full title is “Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith”.. u wouldn’t understand because u guys don’t have the real concept of sovereign kings. Do your kings choose a name to reign in upon ascending the throne? |

gregyboy:dumbass. Why are u this dumb gregboy. So that’s ur source some random person came online and made a claim that all ondo was under Benin and we are supposed to agree with no fact to back it up. And even what u showed says under not that the monarch was derived from there u dumb illiterate. Was there something called ondo state In the past. Is it the olugbo or the deji or osemawe. List the name of the king in ondo that came from Benin like u claim and all the 30 in Yoruba land. Every king in modern ondo state except the ijaw King trace their ancestry to ife except one. So mention the king that came from Benin dumbass. Even the ijaw kings has nothin to do with Benin. 1 Like 1 Share |

Moneywomen17: Oyo has a culture of horse i correct this earlier with an article that horse was introduced to oyo by hausas who acted as thier calvary during war And benin deafted them even with thier hausa hired calvary not just them other tribes that benin encountered that made use of calvaries Oga you dump fool Horse is hisan in Arabic and the pronunciation is very different from the word esin Horse could have come from the arabs but we the word esin was introduced to the yorubas by benins as long as we controlled ondo, ekiti, eko, ijesha Our influence cannot be undermined amongst the yorubas our food Egusi and pounded is what eastern yorubas calls thier delicacy unlike the other yoruba that was influenced by oyo that regards amala and ewedu as it delicacy If yorubas language is a mixture of both western and Eastern yorubas then our influence cant be undermined among Yorubas I dont get it because you guys are now a majour tribe now you all want to rewrite our influence soon the red coral beads belonging to the benins and worn by yorubas and igbos would soon be debated by your generation as indigenous |

Moneywomen17: Please don’t be dumb all the time. I just gave u an example of a full title and a short title but yet u are still confused. Like I said you won’t understand because u guys never had real sovereign kings. “Omo N’Oba N’Edo Oba Ewuare II” is his full title and it actually means “King Ewuare the Second, King of all Edo and its vassal states (including Yorubalands) and beyond, protector of Edo. In ordinary context or different vowels or consonants, omo noba n’edo will be translated as “the one (whose power and glory) illuminates all over Edo and beyond”.. |

gregyboy:dumbass horse was not introduce to the Yoruba by Hausa rather nupe dumbass. Hausa were Slaves only in the old oyo. The word horse was gotten from Arabic just like wahala alubusa and esin. If anything if esin is Benin word for horse that means u only borrow the Yoruba pronunciation of it. Cuz Benin doesn’t have a horse culture. Egusi and iyan is not a Benin food just cuz western Yoruba like amala doesn’t mean shit. Benin republic Yoruba delicacy is neither amala either but oka. I know it’s hard for u to understand but when u are a huge ethnic group not just couple million there will be difference in cuisine. Itsekiri delicacy is not iyan and egusi why cuz I thought iyan was ur influence. U did not control ondo or ekiti especially ijesha and also ijesha and co do not have a horse culture. I hope u know who ogedengbe is. Yoruba introduce art to u and also coral beed is indigenous to Yoruba so u also didn’t introduce shit. There is more Yoruba influences on Benin than the other way around. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

davidnazee:give it up guy it’s really embarrassing now. Never had sovereign kings but oyo was an empire. With control over Dahomey, allada, nupe and the mahin. Ur lies is too much that’s why u can’t stick to one meaning of oba in ur language from it doesn’t exist in edo language to it means the one that shines for edo people to it means the emperor of the benin kingdom. now it means “the one whose power and glory illuminates all over edo and beyond.” Smh which one is it. 1 Like |

Moneywomen17: What is your point here? What is horse culture? If we don’t breed horses in large numbers doesn’t mean we don’t know what it is. I don’t think the climate here is conducive for horses. You lost your other arguments now u have started with horses lol. U can keep the horses Edo don’t have need for it. Edo was known for Ivory culture but we are not bragging about it. |
