Edo state is honestly hopeless. We shall tear that entity apart when the time comes.

Yoruba will take their own, Ijaw will take their own, Igbo, Igala and Itsekiris will ALL take their portions of the artificial state, and Edo muslims which are 20% will join Arewanistan Sharia republic.

The Bini miscreants around benin can do whatever they like with the rest.

“Perhaps, another historian, who bore witness to the invasion of Ijawland by the Yoruba new visitors is E. Alademomi Kenyo, who in his book titled The Origin and Title of Yoruba Rulers (N.D) Page 3, stated: ‘Up till time, the Oba (in Benin) and his people were pure Yoruba and did not understand the language of the aborigines, who usually salute themselves and the new people (the Bini) Adoo, Dolo.” “Going by the above author, the land they refer to as Bini land today belongs to the Ijaw people.No amount of distortion of history or documents of Benin will deter Ijaw from being focused.

For your information Igarras are proud Ebira Etunos. That is why I keep saying this discussion is beyond your limited Benin knowledge scope.

Yes we know they are only Tolerated in Edo state and not actually wanted or embraced. They only reason why they are now in Bendel/Edo is that during the creation of the defunct bendel, their votes were all counted together with the one single Afemai region that includes various other people. same way the Itsekiris were counted in the entire old Warri division that was synonymous with all Delta South and Central today, comprised isokos, Urhobos, Western Ijaws and them)

Be rest assured that now they have their own local government, things are quite different from before when they were all lumped together under Afemai/Kukuruuku.

pazienza:
Just to point a few things.

Ifira And Ipesi first language is not Yoruboid, it's Edoid.

Odiani people have their Yoruboid language as first language, and then Enu ani( Igbo) as second language, it's only logical when they claim Yoruboid origin, no sensible Igbo will argue that.

Everything rooted in antiquity in Odi ani is Yoruboid.

In contrast, Akoko SE communities have Edoid languages as first language, only speak Yoruba as a second language. Everything rooted in antiquity in that part of Ondo is Edoid, right from words for things like King, Land, sky.

I don't need a soothsayer to know when someone is tampering with history for economic/political goals when I see one.

I say this not because I care about Edos, because they too play this same game with Igbo speaking, but Edo origin claiming Igbo towns.
I have never heard of any kind of political clamor for inclusion in Edo from the people of ifira, Sosan Oke, Sosan Isale, Ishua or Ifira to be in Edo or to be anything Edo! They are proud to be Yorubas and are happy where they are. What I believe went over your head is that the fact that the language these people speak or spoke is classified as "Edoid" does not mean they see themselves as anything Edo-ish. Again you are forgetting the fact that there is no "Pan-Edo" ethnicity anywhere,

Go and worry about the current border clashes between Ette igalas/Idomas and Enugu state, the Olumbanasaa Igala communities in Anambra and their feelings of rejection, the Ebonyi non Igbos that came from Cross River and Benue, the Annang/Igbo clashes between Abia and Akwa Ibom and the Ukwuani/Isoko clashes instead of "chooking" your mouth into 100% peaceful border regions that are clearly mixing and enjoying the party of the advantage of their locations.

These are Palace dignitaries from Igarra, Edo state, tell me if they look like your Average Benin Palace setting of Today.

9jakool:
I might do a breakdown of Akoko Edo in the future, but these kind of things require a lot of time and research. The only Edoid speaking parts of Ondo state are Isua area, Ipe, Ekpemi, and Iyayu quaters in Idoani. Now let's make a distinction between Edo and Edoid. These four communities don't identify as Edo, because they are not Edo, but Edoid speaking groups. Your average Edo speaker from Benin cannot hold a conversation with these people because while their language are related, they are not the same. It is the same way Igalas aren't Yorubas despite speaking a Yoruboid language (that is not necessarily mutually intelligible to Yoruba). In fact, these particular four communities identify as Yoruba and trace their origin to Ile-Ife like most if not all the peoples in Akoko Ondo area. Most of their kings have Yoruba titles and claim descendant to Oduduwa.

Yes, good observation about the Okpe people. There are quite a number of Yoruba speaking communities in Edo state. It's a known fact that there are ethnic groups in Akoko Edo and Owan areas that claim origin from Ile-Ife, practice Yoruba culture and religion and speak Yoruba language in additional to their own distinct languages. There are also some monolingual Yoruba communities that speak a dialect of the Yoruba language such as Imeri, that was only ceded to Ondo state just a couple of years ago.


Aside from these communities in the Afemai area, there are a few Yoruba communities even found in the heart of Edoland. I'm talking specifically about the Northern parts of Ovia SouthWest and the Western border areas with Ondo state. The town of Usen, as well as the surrounding towns and villages are not native Edo speaker. Your average Edo speaker cannot hold a conversation with an Usen speaker since they speak a Yoruba language. To this day, the traditional ruler of Usen is referred to Olu Awure.
Woow, Elaborately dissected.

I knew of the Edo south Yoruba speaking communities, but decided to keep them out for now since we are focusing on Edo North.

Some of them in Ovia NE include.
Usen
Uhen
Olumoye
Agopanu
Egbeta
Ogbese
Utesse
And many other very small communes.

While in Ovia SW, we have the likes of
Gbelemotin Oke
Gbelemotin Odo
Madagbayu
Siluko (which actually speak similar to Okitipupa and Ode Irele people, i.e Ikale)
and Others.....

Though, her terrain is quite rocky, Okpe Kingdom is blessed with a vast expanse of farmland, bordering on Owan area of Edo State and Idogun town in Ondo State. The people are hardworking, peace-loving, generous and very hospitable. Male inhabitants of Okpe are predominantly farmers and hunters while their women are known for weaving.

Okpe people are believed to have migrated from Ile-Ife in the present Osun state to their present location over 2,000 years ago.

The people are very rich in cultural practices. Some of the prominent cultural activities that Okpe is known for include:
