I don't want to say anything regard this nonsense you wrote down here.

But I will advise you to stop creating enemies to edolities.

Edo is part of Yoruba.

Atigba:
It is a political blunder for a Yoruba politician to try to meddle in our internal politics.

The branding of Nigeria today by Yoruba politicians should be on the same pretext like Awolowo and the Fulani North…. Learn to solidify your base… win the trust of your people and then use it as a launching pad to negotiate at the center….. If you think you will not reconcile with your people and still hope to have a platform to stand up to outsiders….. you will make yourself vulnerable to the enemy….. I desperately wish for Yoruba agitators and politicians to unite for a common cause… just like in the days of Awolowo…. He was feared by outsiders because they realized his’s people’s love for him cannot be shaken…. If you rig Awolwo’s party out of power in Yorubaland…. He did not need to mobilize.... the people will stand up for him naturally….. this earned him so much respect that if democracy lasted long enough…. He would have emerged president like Buhari did after many failed attempts.

The greatest mistake Bola Tinubu is doing is reaching out to others while many of his kinsmen at home are biased about him…. Whoever advised him to put in his 10 cents in Edo politics made a big blunder…. Edo people… like Igbos…. hold a big resentment towards Yoruba people…. they have an elephant size complex which has forced them to twist history up and down and make so many colorful stories over the ages to resist such complex…. Benin people… like factions of Kwara and Ijebu hold elements of rebellious people of Yoruba ancestry…. Why… because they feel dwarfed by a bigger history of their benevolence to the parent body at Ile Ife and Oyo.

In the second republic…. It was the Oba Akenzua II that worked with the politicians in the Midwest to ensure the creation of the Midwest because he was desperate to break away from Yoruba people…. his son was the fraudulent author who made the fabricated stories of how elders roamed forests for over 40 years looking for a fugitive Igodomigodo prince…. In a reckless attempt to infuse his bloodline into the Ogiso dynasty and disrespect the true natives of Igodomigodo whose lands were invaded by Oranmiyan… in his book he even mentioned how Oduduwa tested the elders to be sure they are repentant and gave the elders 7 lice and told them to bring if back after 3 years… and how one of the senior chiefs put it in the hair of one of his slaves to preserve it for three years (he must have read the story of Joseph and infused his version)…. Now this is where it bugs a question…. Lice have only a lifespan of 30 days…. Within that 30 days… they would have laid tons of eggs and multiply rapidly…. To say 7 lice were put on a slaves head and same 7 lice were alive 3 years after without multiplying is totally false narrations ( and to think the Oba that wrote the story was learned…. He must have studied biology when he was at Government college Ibadan)…. These are the negative energies going on between Edo and larger Yoruba today… the true natives of Igodomigo also do not like Yoruba people because they blame them for the invasion of their land by Oranmiyan…. How then do Yoruba politicians think these people would have any kind of regards for them…. If they played politics like Awolowo…. They will concentrate on home and then build coaltions rather than engage in direct politics.

Do you know who Obaseki is he comes from a well known migrant nobility that will do anything for power in Benin.… they know how to profit from tension…. You can never outsmart them in such game… his greatgrandfather was the very man that helped the British run down Benin kingdom…. He helped them put the king away into exile in calabar… hoping to take the power of the throne for himself…. He succeeded at this but was rejected by Benin people who remained loyal to the throne until the bloodline of Oranmiyan was restored to the throne.

Who are the Ogodomigodos?

Bini, Etsako and Esans right?

Atigba:
Bini is mixed, 80 percent indegenous people of Igodomigodo and 20 perfect ife
Other ethnic nationalities are Igodomigodo citizens.

Osagyefo98:
Who are the Indigenous igodomigodo.

You mean Bini, Esan, Etsako and Ife?

PlayerMeji:
He who dances hastily to a song he does not know will surely miss his step...

Atigba:
Ife people are from Osun State with their Oba 20%.

Indegenous people are the remaing 80% who didnt fled Igodomigodo over centuries. Some Binis, 80% though I have reservations for that name ''Bini".

Igbanke, Ijaws, Urhobos, Isoko and Ika.

Esan, Esako, Unemen people of Igala, Left Igodomigodo in Ogiso period, others left during Oba tyranny.

What I’m still trying to understand is how this thread take transform into Igbo matter bikonu. Can’t you yoruba and bini do your thing without undue mentioning of Igbo

Atigba:
Our message is clear, stay away from Idu land

OfoIgbo:
Igodomigodo was an ancient kingdom, currently succeeded by Benin.

It had Nris, Ikas, Edo's e.t.c in it

It was really set up by the Nris and the original royal household was from NRI, the Ogisos. The ancient NRI kings crowned the Ogisos, and this practice carried on to the Oba era.

I believe Oranmiyan's descendants are most probably of the Ogiso lineage otherwise the Eze Nris would not have been crowning the oba, as that would have been supporting usurpation.

Afa would have revealed the tainted bloodline. For the Nris to be crowning Benin Obas up untill relatively recently, means that the Obas are originally of the Nri-Ogiso bloodline

Osagyefo98:
Take the hog-wash history to those who graces you audience and have time to argue that.

I have never given an atom of patience to moonlight narratives that doesn't end bit can create over 50 pages of nonsense.

So, Kindly look for your students who gives you audience to the hogwash.

OfoIgbo:
Another one jealous of Igbo achievements.
Painment galore

Osagyefo98:
Nwoke not everyone have time to listen to nonsense.
