Do you even know that it was Lord Lugard and the British who built Enugu and Umuahia
Yet they always insist it belongs to themselves

And what does Lord Lugard get for his efforts.
Curses
It was because of the same Lord Lugard that the Slave Traders couldn't ship many of them to Brazil because Lugard fought the Slave Traders until he ended it

Lord Lugard was a Pastors Son
He took the Matter very Personally

He saw himself as the defender of the Weak
Even the Sokoto Calipate that he defeated on the Battlefield he did it in disobedience to his orders from London

God bless you for this fact about enugu being created by the colonial masters, while today igbos are claiming it as their city. It even served as their capital in Eastern region. They argued with me on other platforms when I told them that enugu never existed until colonial masters built it from scratch to what it is today.

EtinosaDLaw:
Oba of Benin founded lagos and the Igbos developed it. Yorubas can envy their way to hell.

And non of you have a portion or control over the same Lagos today.
Fair to say that you all laboured in vein over Lagos.

Mayeldah:
Oduduwa is just a myth, he never existed but only in folklores

May be your own ancestors were just a myth who never existed. Perhaps you evolved from ape as told you by your white masters.

Her fathers from Bini are the owners of Lagos, Aworis only migrated from Ife later, yet her ancestors do not possess any land in Lagos apart from Idumota axis given to her ancestors by Aromire, an Awori man.

Aworis have a very massive land in Lagos, same with Ijebus and Egbas, but Binis have non.

Who installed the first Oba of Lagos?
Simple English.

The power and people that installed the first Oba of Bini also installed the first Oba of Lagos.

As at 1900, there was no single igboman in Lagos, but they are claiming that they developed Lagos. The Same Lagos that already had electricity, telephone, postal services, schools, Cathedrals, good roads, entertainment/recreation centres, business districts, seaport etc as far back as 1860s.

I always say it that ndigbos should be eternally grateful to the colonial masters and specifically lord Luggard for amalgamating Nigeria. Igbos are the greatest beneficiaries of this. Whatever they achieved is as a result of Nigeria. Unlike other regions, No single known Igbo businessman precolonial era.

Eko is a benin word
Idumagbo is a Benin word
Idumota is a Benin word
Obanikoro is a Benin word
Oshodi isn't a Yoruba word


Why do people argue a lot! The pointers are there ...Lagos island was founded by Benin folks .... Even the Island king said it years ago



...but mark my words, they will deflect and leave Oba and bring in Igbo here....

You know Igbo are like gods...they have hands in everything they do

What is the meaning of Idumota, Idumagbo, Obanikoro in Bini language?
FYI, Eko is derived from Ereko, a pure Yoruba word.

As I keep presenting eye-witness written documents to back the fact that Lagos is just an other part of Benin, I would like everybody to notice that the Yoruba bring absolutely no evidence, all they do is throw insults and recount an unsubstantiated story.

Can you dispute the facts below that Ife founded Bini:
One of the evidences that Ife founded Bini is the name of the City
Yoruba ancient surnames that are everywhere in Bini (Nobody is bearing Bini name in Lagos or anywhere in Yorubaland) eg Obasuyi, Alonge, Oyegun, Balogun, Ojo, Ajayi, Ogun......, Ade....Oye....etc
Yoruba/Ife deities are being worshipped in Bini e.g Ogun, Osun, Olokun, Sonponna, Obatala etc. They have Orunmila and Ogboni temples in Bini
Another evidence is that they celebrate Odua (not izoduwa, ekeledaran or whatever) and Oranmiyan festivals in Bini - Igue Oodua, Igue Oranmiyan

Shattuck:
my argument is largely in relation to the Lagos issue there are numerous towns in Lagos like the idumota eti-osa local govt and other areas who bear bini names, just trying to discredit that is what I find wrong.

Eti osa is not a Bini word. It's a common compound word in Yorubaland for "near or by or beside or around" like Eti-okun, Eti-odo, Eti-osa, Eti-oya, Eti-ile, Eti-oko, Eti-oja etc.

Krismas:
LOL
U see, OGISO is two compound words OGIE meaning king and ISO meaning Sky or heaven. Ogiso means king from heaven.
Ogisos didn’t come from anywhere on earth. The were probably aliens! And their era passed away quickly

So you know that ogie is the proper Bini word for King and you people are saying that Oba is Edo word. What a confusion! What a lie!

Shattuck:
there was no such thing as Yoruba kingdom in ancient time, and the bini kingdom was larger than any Yoruba kingdom, there are accounts that a bini prince founded ife, Ile ife might have being influenced by the ancient bini kingdom, why you guys find it hard to accept this is because you look at the Yoruba as a larger ethnic group that the binis which is true, which makes it difficult to believe you might have been largely influenced but in ancient times there was no such thing as a Yoruba kingdom, if western history wasn't properly documented it would have been very difficult to believe Britain colonised america, or Britain was once colonised by Norway.

You're too emotionally feeble for this discussion. Can you mention a single Bini influence on Ile-Ife or anywhere in Yorubaland? I can show you numerous Yoruba/Ife influences all over Bini, starting from the name of the City, to numerous Yoruba ancient surnames all over Bini to Yoruba gods being worshipped in Bini etc. The current king and his late father cannot just turn the well known ancient history upside down now.

VEHINTOLAR:
Ashipa was rewarded with the title of the Oloriogun (War leader) and he received the Oba of Benin’s sanction to govern Lagos on his behalf.

These small fries Binis,they are lizards who see themselves as crocodiles ! They just keep exposing themselves in their futile attempt to make themselves what they're not !

Now,take a look at the highlighted word up there: "Oloriogun", that's a clear Yoruba word, no controversy ! This means that who ever sent "Ashipa",another Yoruba word,to Lagos then was,certainly,a Yoruba man ! Lol, Olori = Head, Ogun = War ! Oloriogun or Balogun in Yoruba language means "a Leader of warriors". Ashipa is a common chieftaincy tittle that's found everywhere in Yorubaland. As a matter of facts,all the underlisted words are well rooted in Yoruba language but are today being used by the Binis. They ordinary have no meanings in Bini language :

* Iyaoba (Iya Oba) = The King's mother.

* Ayaoba (Aya Oba) = The King's wife/wives.

*Olori or Olorioba = The King's senior wife.

*Oba = coined from OBAtala,the first king in Yoruba land.

* Ashipa (Ashipaogun) = High ranked warrior who prepares other or lesser warriors for battle /war.

* Oyegun = a name that's common among the people from the family or lineage of well respected traditional chieftaincy tittle holders.

*All the deties inside the palace of Oba of Benin are all indigenous Yoruba deties - Ogun, Sango,Oya, Yemoja-Olokun,Osun,etc !

Oba of Benin is a Yoruba man.

We have told them severally that the official/royal language in Oba of Bini's Palace is Yoruba (ede Ife) not until recently, during Oba Akenzua/Ereduawa reigns (the 2 immediate past Obas) that they started to re write the history by hiding/erasing all these facts, including the burial of the heads of their departed Obas in Orun Oba Ado shrines in Ile-Ife.

Stoplying:
This was written by a person who knows nothing about Benin. It is all trash, and again even if these were factual, it is still not what we call historical proof of Benin being founded by Ife !
You are incapable of accepting clear evidence, instead you want to push complete rubbish as evidence.

I've given you enough free lectures.

End.

You're flatly defeated!

Is it that meaningless map (just geographical drawings) that gave thousands of indigenous Edos Yoruba ancient surnames?
Is it your irrelevant map that makes Bini people to be worshiping Yoruba/Ife gods and having branches of Orunmila, Ogboni and other temples in Bini?
Is it your submitted map that instructed Bini people to be celebrating igue Odua (Odua festival) and igue Oranmiyan (Oranmiyan festival)?
Dey play o.

Christistruth00:
There are still Moba People in Lagos as we Speak lots of them

For the Moba Ijebu History it was over 1000 years ago , long before Oyo or Ilaje even existed but some Moba People still Migrated to Ijebu and Built the 160Km Eredo Wall

Oya
Which Eredo Clan do you belong to?
As for the Oba Of Benin he met the Awori in Lagos
Olofin had already even already finished sharing Lagos among his Son's before Benin Turned up that was why they were managing to stay at Isale Eko on Lagos Island which already belonged to Aromire son of Olofin Ogunfunminire. and till this day his family are still the Land owners of Most of Lagos Island


Also If Ooni of Ife turns up in benin and Claims the Throne and Kingdom of benin itself he too is also right


Ok, Let us look at the praise names of oba of benin

One of it is
Abieyuwa N'Ovbi Odua N'uhe
The son of the wealthy Odua of Uhe(Ife).
(Odua of Ife is the same as oduduwa of Ife)

Another of oba of benin's praise names is

Ovbi' Adimila
The son of Adimila
oduduwa was also known as Olofin Adimula
Which was his Title

Notice there is no mention at all of any Ekhalerderhan of Igodomigodo or izoduwa that got lost

They did not mention the Ekhalerderhan and izoduwa too is not happening anywhere in oba of benin's praise names but they called Oduduwa the great Odua of Ife his Father

So with their own mouths they themselves have already given the evidence that fully demolished and destroyed their case which had no legs to stand on in the first place and have confirmed with your own Mouth that the oba of benin was indeed oduduwa's Son
There is nothing left to drag because it is settled


.

Great submission!
Pls, I'll like to know more about this Moba-Ilaje-Ijebu-Ife connections

Stoplying:
The problem is that none of your claims is substantiated and that actual proof, which I show, goes against your claims.
Everybody has ancestors, I never said the IBA if Benin doesn't have ancestors, but there is a difference between having ancestors and having an ancestor who came from Ife. Do you understand that?
You are not smart at all.

Stop dogging this. Can you dispute the below facts:
One of the evidences that Ife founded Bini is the name of the City
Yoruba ancient surnames that are everywhere in Bini (Nobody is bearing Bini name in Lagos or anywhere in Yorubaland) eg Obasuyi, Alonge, Oyegun, Balogun, Ojo, Ajayi, Ogun......, Ade....Oye....etc

Dude, who gives a fcvk if I'm Edo or not ?
Your reasoning is stupid. Are we debating my Edoness or history !
Again, oranmiyan, oduduwa...all those are fairytales!
I'm an educated man, I won't fall for your illiterate tricks.

If you aren't daft and heavily beclouded by hatred, you wouldn't have stated that. You believe that Oba of Bini exists, but his ancestors never existed. Stop being a disgrace to your alma mater as you claimed to be a literate
