ariesbull:Why don't u ask ur self why Obaseki grand parents left Anioma to Benin? It was because Benin was better place to leave in than Igbo land... It is akin to Nigerians moving to Canada for better living... Will u say Nigeria then influence Canada.. Igbos and Yoruba never influenced Benin... Igbos that were living in hamlets prior to the almagamation of Nigeria wants to influence the great Benin kingdom that was already doing trades with the Portuguese, Dutch , English Who nor like better thing
For ur info, ur support means nothing if the Edo people didn't come out en masse to vote for him... Even Yoruba support ize iyamu but did they win with their support without Edo approval? 2 Likes |

nocomment9999: This your argument is a bit redundant. The map you showed was a Portuguese map who never ventured beyond the coasts and so had no real grasp of balance of power in hinterland and so assumed Bini controlled all in the hinterland. If you look at your map, you will see that River Niger has not even been explored and mapped then. It was not until 1830 that the Lander brothers fully mapped the Niger. So does it mean that River Niger never existed since your Portuguese map never indicated it? The more the British explored the hinterland by interaction with involved groups and not listening to Binis, the more they got idea of real picture of things and updated the map. Your clinging unto an incomplete map made by Portuguese who never explored the hinterland but relied on accounts from those they met at the coasts is a bit desperate and hilarious . Bini was a mushroom kingdom that the Portuguese made great by providing them with European firearms with which they used to invade and terrorize neighboring groups before the weapons proliferation happened and balance was restored with the Bini pegged back. I know you hate the British for putting an end to Bini menace in Southern Nigeria which the Portuguese created. No one created Igbo land. No one taught the Igbanke in Edo state how to speak their mother tongue Igboid language despite centuries of Bini imperialism and attempts at obliterating their Igboid language by Oba palace. 6 Likes |

adadike: Of course nwanne. Ancient Aboh kingdom was Igbo. In fact the then King of Aboh who the whites met, by name Eze Obi Ossai told the whites that he and his people were Eboes. He also told the whites that the rest of Igbos lived across the Niger and bluffed that he was king of all Igbos. The British called Aboh Eboe town thinking it was the capital city of all Igbos. You can read the British report of Aboh expedition here. http://archive.org/stream/narrativeofexped01alle/narrativeofexped01alle_djvu.txt As for why Aboh claim Bini origin. Bini was a strong kingdom thanks to Portuguese firearms they had monopoly on. Claiming relationship with Bini was a thing of pride and power for many groups around then. It offered protection from Bini and from other neighbours. Just compare it to how some Igbos are claiming Israeli origin today, just because Israel is a strong military nation. Every minute similarities between Igbo culture and Israel is exaggerated and doctored by Igbos driving this fabrication. Of course, they will always play down the question on why our language is not in anyway related to Israeli language. 4 Likes

The most powerful and influential races are two--the Aku and the Ibo. The Akus [Footnote: This is a nickname from the national salutation, 'Aku, ku, ku?' ('How d'ye do?')] or Egbas of Yoruba, the region behind Lagos, the Eyeos of the old writers, so called from their chief town, 'Oyo,' are known by their long necklaces of tattoo. They are termed the Jews of Western Africa; they are perfect in their combination, and they poison with a remarkable readiness. The system of Egba 'clanship' is a favourite, sometimes an engrossing, topic for invective with the local press, who characterise this worst species of 'trades-union,' founded upon intimidation and something worse, as the 'Aku tyranny' and the 'Aku Inquisition.' The national proverb speaks the national sentiment clearly enough: '_Okàn kau lè ase ibi, ikoko li asi ìmolle bi atoju ìmolle taù, ke atoju ibi pella, bi aba kû ara enni ni isni 'ni'_ ('A man must openly practise the duties of kinship, even though he may privately belong to a (secret) club; when he has attended the club he must also attend to the duties of kinship, because when he dies his kith and kin are those who bury him'). The Ibos, or 'Eboes' of American tales, are even more divided; still they feel and act upon the principle 'Union is strength.' This large and savage tribe, whose headquarters are at Abo, about the head of the Nigerian delta, musters strong at Sá Leone; here they are the Swiss of the community; the Kruboys, and further south the Kabenda-men being the 'Paddies.' It is popularly said that while the Aku will do anything for money, the Ibo will do anything for revenge. Both races are astute in the extreme and intelligent enough to work harm. Unhappily, their talents rarely take the other direction. In former days they had faction-fights: the second eastern district witnessed the last serious disturbance in 1834. Now they do battle under the shadow of the law. 'Aku constables will not, unless in extreme cases, take up their delinquent countrymen, nor will an Ebo constable apprehend an Ebo thief; and so on through all the different tribes,' says the lady 'Resident of Sierra Leone.' If the majority of the jury be Akus, they will unhesitatingly find the worst of Aku criminals innocent, and the most innocent of whites, Ibos, or Timnis guilty. The Government has done its best to weld all those races into one, and has failed. Many, however, are becoming Moslems, as at Lagos, and this change may have a happier effect by introducing the civilisation of El-Islam. Trial by jury has proved the reverse of a blessing to most non-English lands; in Africa it is simply a curse. The model institution becomes here, as in the United States, a better machine for tyranny than any tyrant, except a free people, ever invented. The British Constitution determines that a man shall be tried by his peers. Half a dozen of his peers at Sá Leone may be full-blooded blacks, liberated slaves, half-reformed fetish-worshippers, sometimes with a sneaking fondness for Shángo, the Egba god of fire; and, if not criminals and convicts in their own country, at best paupers clad in dishclouts and palm-oil. The excuse is that a white jury cannot be collected among the forty or fifty eligibles in Freetown. It is vain to 'challenge,' for other negroes will surely take the place of those objected to. No one raises the constitutional question, 'Are these half-reclaimed savages my peers?' And if he did, Justice would sternly reply, 'Yes.' The witnesses will forswear themselves, not, like our 'posters,' for half a crown, but gratis, because the plaintiff or defendant is a fellow-tribesman. The judge may be 'touched with a tar-brush;' but, be he white as milk, he must pass judgment according to verdict. This state of things recalls to mind the Ireland of the early nineteenth century, when the judges were prefects armed with a penal code, http://www.gutenberg.org/files/18506/18506-8.txt |

pazienza: Notice that the Igbos in Sierra Leone saw Aboh as their headquarters. Aboh town used to play prominent role in Igbo nationalism. The balkanization of Igboland with Aboh left and rest of Anioma left in Western region in 1938 by Bernard Bourdillion, was the beginning of identity crisis in those parts of Igbo speaking regions. Solution would be political unification of Eastern Igbo with Western Igbo. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Yes, its fame and influence travelled further, but the people were not under Oba command in Western Igbo. They had Ezes who went by the Igbo title of Obi and not Enojies. 6 Likes |

So pazienza, things have got so bad for you that you are not only denying history, you are now denying the present ? I presented several maps: two made by two french people, one made by an Italian, one made by a person from Holland, I am not sure I even presented a map made by a Portuguese. The maps I presented were made in different periods of time. I even presented a map made in 1883 which contradicts your conspiracy theories. The region had been sufficiently explored in the 1400's for the explorers to produse quality precised maps and my proof is that they did just that. But denying reality has become a must for you since reality contradicts your dogma and your plans. The region had a name: Benin. I am not sure you understand the meaning of the word redundant. Anyways by denying obvious reality which everybody can see, you have shown to every reader that you are a liar and a denier of reality. The maps: https://www.nairaland.com/3549333/23-year-old-obi-nduka/53 |

One thing people must notice about me is that I make scam artists expose themselves. As you all can see now pazienza was and always had been a liar, a dogma driven person who spews unsubstantiated claims which favour his dogma. I just wonder how mentally ill he needs to be in order to deny even things which are before his very eyes. He used to deny historical facts now he also denies the present. He lives in his own alternate reality. |
