macof:I have learnt my origin and for the traditional am still learning it ...Benin tradition is vast one As for our origin we neither migrated from Egypt or fell from the sky ...we came from the red soil. Our history, tradition and origin is been passed through our dressing, our choice of colour, our dance, and our artworks. There was a time when Benin was an empire a kingdom and it shall be great again. I pray for my people to wake up from their slumber on time.dont you think you should be doing talk show on the history of Benin since you are well knowledgeable of its history...Benin history is very large to the extent it can be taught as a subject in schools and universities . 1 Like |

macof:ogiso was chosen as a name for those leaders so that the people will see them as leaders that were sent by God from the sky not that they fell from up I may not be educated as you are but I can vouch that there was never a time that the Benins claimed that they fell from the sky instead it was the yorubas that claimed that oduduwa fell from the sky The Benins only believe that when God created the world their ancestors chose the land instead of the sea and sky and that's one the reason their colours are red and white. The red which stand for the mother earth (mud sand)the white which stand for purity and holiness (native chalk) I am aware that there's a lot of conspiracy theories about Benin and history as a whole that is why I will never comment or argue what am not sure of . Why is it only in nairaland that you like claiming supremacy over Benin ?why don't you go out there on Facebook or raise an argument in a TV station station if you're really sure of what you're saying 1 Like |

TAO11:I didn't say oba is an abbreviation in Edo language,oba is an abbreviation of "OMO NOR OBA NE EDO ". oba has a meaning in edo language and please if you know that you're allergic to other people history or language then you should stick with your king who fell from the sky. |

TAO11:they say see ebo you say see father, How is oba of Benin addressed?,is it not OMO 'NOBA" N-EDO " when you translate it to English won't it give you the same thing you wrote ? or you didn't see where I wrote that oba is an abbreviation. You people should tell your histories and leave that of Benin for them |

macof:the Benins never claimed supremacy over the yorubas it's you people that can't narrate your history without mentioning the Benins I only explained the meaning of this few words so that the yorubas should know that oba doesn't mean king in Benin . |

googi:I am not good in Benin language but I know that almost all name in Edo are or were an abbreviation of sentences or words which were used to describe an event in tme of the old. Oku means death if am not mistaken and it might also mean some other things like I said am not good in Benin language Oba might mean king in yoruba language but in Benin it means either light, shine or red .oba is an every day word in Benin . The fact that we come up with different interpretations to things should tell you how vast and deep Benin is.the Benin language have honomnys and synonyms just like the English language. Some parts in Ghana call fowl the name the Benins it call it does that mean that the Benins borrowed the word from them? A place in Japan is Edo does that mean the Edo as a whole came Japan? |

MetaPhysical:is omo nor oba not omo oba Omo nor oba =the child that shines Omo oba =child of light Omo =child Oba=shine,red Nor=that,what Obanosa=shines like god( Ogie nor ki so re(ogiso)=king from the sky =is also to describe God king Omo nor oba ne Edo = the child that shines in Edo Oba is an abbreviation, when introducing the oba of Benin his title or his name must be called in full that's where you hear 'omo nor oba ne Edo 'uku-Apkolokpolo oba Ewuare. Hope you now understand that the yorubas meaning of oba is different from the Benin |

That girl is not only self-centered but she's an enemy of progress. If I had a boyfriend whose family wanted to sponsor his education in London I would have encouraged him to go for either one of this reasons ,"for our betterment in the future as a couple .or, I know am not going to marry him so I won't want to hinder or delay his progress". but instead she kept him for her Monetary wants. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Johntitus:he is not the problem. As a woman I once shouldered a man's responsibilities for the fact that the guy was an asshole doesn't mean I should take the bitterness to my recent relationship. If we truly love someone, automatically their problems become ours so the OP wasn't foolish or stupid for helping the woman he loves. My advice for the OP is for him to move on ,it might be hard at first but is the best thing to do.just move on don't think about it too much, do things that we make you happy and try to forget about her 1 Like |

Mraphel:that's your own fabricated story. We the Benins know our history .it was oduduwa himself that sent his son to Benin but his son wasn't able to stand the tension in edo so he left behind a son who later became a king. ( summarised?) The Benins are not in competition with anyone so please face your oduduwa and leave us alone |

TAO11:I didn't send you that link to argue who first existed. That description was a written history backed up with a photograph to ascertain the authenticity of his claims. In Edo artworks are used as an evidence to confirm the truth in the oral history. If the old Benin was to still be intact then you would have gotten your evidence on the claims that Benin is over 2500 years. Benin original artwork is all over Europe so you can set to really investigate those artworks or better still come to Benin to do your research because in Benin every statue and every area has its own history If Benin people can identify themselves with something as simple as greetings then why do you think we don't know our origin or the origin of our king? Don't you think is time you people really know where your oduduwa came from?why don't you divert your attention to that area and leave the Benins alone. Oba gha tokpere isee |
