By the way, if u still believe that eze Chima was Igbo, kindly provide proof...

An Igbo man Uche Uwaezuoke Okonkwo wrote a book that
Ezechima: The Historic King that Binds the East and West Niger Igbo
said that eze Chima is Benin... Why can't Igbos agree for once
So with all you peoples "abundant histories" , you are looking for an Igbo man to tell your history.
Lol, a charlatan knows no shame.
See the way he has been going with "this history is from an igbo man"

I always ask them the meaning of igodomigodo which has "igodo" in it and they can't answer.
I've told them that Ndigbo are the oldest ethnic group down here and if you they make too much noise we will tell them their history.
THEY WILL SAY IGBO IS COPYING THIS AND DAT, BUT IT IS THE OTHER WAY ROUND.


THEIR IS A REASON THE WORD IGBO TRANSLATE TO ANCIENT.


WE WERE ONE OF THE FIRST PEOPLE IN THAT PART AND OTHERS CAME FROM US MIXING AND GENETICALLY OUR PEOPLE TOO.

Its always a common knowledge to us the Nri/Idemmili that Exechime is Igbo but since you claim otherwise the onus is on you. Dont copy and post some outlandish crap online and expect us to accept that. My town is a stone throw from Onicha and not only do speak a similar Igbo dialect, Ide-Ocha but we practice near identical culture. With this I can tell you that no way in this world were Onicha people ever Bini nor even spoke a little Bini or practice their culture. Its impossible!

You Bini people are relatively new to this area you reside hence your ignorance. My grand mother told us the tales of Iduu na Oba and Iduu is not Bini but the vicinity Onicha resided before the war, Agha Iduu na Oba which they , Onicha brought the tales when they settled. The people they settled with were definitely not Bini populace.

And , recently , Agbogidi, Obi Achebe , stated they were Igbo in reverse migration...need I say more?

Etinosa1234:
See lies full in a blog... I don't know why u take blogs as a source for something that happened 900 years back...
There are many sources on Benin history But u chose the one that suits u
lemme help u

Ogiamien is the name of an important royal family in Benin Kingdom. Towards the end of the Ogiso dynasty (12th century), Ogiso Owodo did not have a son to succeed him, his brother Evian therefore took over after Owodo's death in 1130AD. This interrupted the tradition of primogeniture (in which the elder son succeeds to his father) in the Ogiso's rule. Evian had a son who ruled as Ogiamien Erebo which has a meaning close to "king who rules the land of the Binis". Traditionally, the Ogiamien is the owner of the land in Benin Kingdom and once a year the Oba is traditionally renewing the lease of half of the land.

First of.. Evian was not the ogisos brother... He was unnamed... Evian was an administrator of the kingdom, it was due to the fact that the son Ekaladerhan was banished... So while Evian wanted to extend his rule by putting his son. Thus the chiefs revolted, and went to look for the banished prince... To further prove this paragraph is a lie... Erebo wic is said "King who rules the land of the Binis" happens to be false..
Why?
Because according to traditional history wic the Ogiamen also believe, The word Benin was originated from Oranmiyan meaning ile Ibinu meaning land of annoyance and it was said to be because Oranmiyan found it hard to rule them...
And also...As at when the Ogiso/ Evian ruled, the land was still called Igodomigodo
So if the land was still Igodomigodo as at when Evian ruled and changed when Oranmiyan came and left, where did the name Erebo which means"King who rules the land of the Binis" come from if there was no place even called Ile Ibinu as when the fake character"Erebo" was said to have ruled...


During the rule of Ogiamien Erebo, the Benin Kingdom was at war with the troops of Orumiyan, who was actually the grand-son of Izoduwa, a Benin prince then called Ekaladerhan who had fled the Ogiso's court to settle in Ile Ife in Yorubaland as its ruler. This war was therefore a Bini war. Orunmiyan left his son Eweka to continue the fight with the Benin Kingdom and went back to Ile-Ife.
Eweka was successful in mounting pressure on the kingdom of Ogiamien Erebo whose chiefs were starting to warm up to the idea of surrendering to the lead of Eweka.


This is another lie on it own... First according to the Yorubas, when Oranmiyan left Benin, he went straight to Oyo and became the first Alaafin...
Secondly When Oranmiyan came, he married a Benin woman named Erinmwinde and gave birth to Eweka who was dumb at birth...
And its on account that Eweka was made to talk after an incantation and played a marble game(popular in Benin) where he spoke his first words " owomika" meaning my hand got it

Having said that, this further proves that there was no such Benin war

For more info , read abt Egharevba book"A short history of Benin".. Egharevba is one of the biggest indigenous historians in Benin kingdom and his works are everywhere

The rest of the article are just hearsay and the person who wrote the article doesn't have a reference

it is so obvious that the name is not an edo name but the fact is that ezechime was a product of Benin begotten by an ibo mother during oba esigie reign.


ezechime fled Benin after a conflict between his mother portion and Oba esigie thereby taking along most things that relate to Benin
nawah ooo , you people can't reason again because of politics, igbos came to the region of bini and igala and dominated it between 12 th and 25th century. it was during the 16th and 17th centuries when the nothners came with their fulanization agenda that the igbos trace back east word

IDENNAA:
You don't have the intelligence , wits and knowledge to debate on this issue. Everything you learned in your history studies was about Bini culture and all the inadequacies that comes with it.

Mind you Exechime didn't drop from the sky at Onicha Ado , he had followers and relatives across the Niger at Western Igbo land like Onicha Olona, Onicha Ugbo, Iselle Azagba , Onicha Ukwu etc. You are a baby in this issues. You are barely an ignorant misseducated Bini boy with unchecked arrogance that's why you can insult Igbo online.

Your forebears like Physics-Ed and company will never attempt insulting the Igbo.

By the way Igbo culture is way too deep if you open your uncivil mind and study it. It's like a beautiful colored wall. Our culture and history is richer than you can imagine being we are very diverse....yours , however rich begins and ends with one man ,your Oba. Nothing more.

My home town Umuoji probably has more beautiful history and culture than your Bini now imagine the whole Igbo nation. You Bini people are playing with fire and your aggressive new Oba better be care....remember all thise virgins your fore father's murdered for sacrifices to win the British war didnt work. Be careful, you have nothing to fight with.
I remember that those virgin were slaves from ibo extract
