Apparently when your alafin was making up his story he didn't take any time to do some research. For your information, Dahomey and Benin republic are the same country which changed its name from Dahomey to Benin republic in the 1960's (in order to honour the ancient Benin empire).
It is amazing how the so called "yoruba chiefs" just keep making up their "history".
There was never any oyo empire.
Oyo was just a small and new kingdom being overran by the fulani before the british colonisation.
The only empire which existed in the south of nigeria was the Benin Empire. Deal with it !
