Shut up. Benin are our slaves forever. Most of you even speak Yoruba language

Fantasticcc:
Ondo is not a Yoruba state, Yorubas should be careful

zinizta:
apoi? Ijaw! Ok, I would have sworn he is Ilaje. He is from Ondo state as well. So, can you say he isn't Yoruba?�

Givaxy:

Whether dialect or not. We only have 99 % Yoruba 1% ijaw in ondo state. Whether dialect or not, its still Yoruba langauge they speak just different tone.

Benin was never an empire my Benin slave

Let me give you example of Oyo empire

Oyo state today has the largest landmass and highest number of indigenes in southern nigeria

The Yoruba we speak today is Oyo Yoruba

The word Yoruba was coined from Oyo which means Oyo is king(oyo roba)

There are ethnic Oyo in osun state, Oyo state, Ogun state

Ikoyi in Lagos state today is an Oyo chief who migrated from old Oyo ile

Oyo subgroup is the highest among Yorubas today

So thats Oyo empire

My Benin slave is in sifia pains

..a question. Is Sowore of Sahara Reporters Yoruba? Think carefully because He is Ilaje

theFilmtricsay

zinizta:
there are different dialects in that area especially as it is close to Edo State...you might something similar to the Benins or the Eshans or the Ondo Yorubas

zinizta:
.
.more than tone. .the vowels are interposed and certain words are more specific.

In Ekiti the part of Ekiti I am from we call yam 'Usu', the broad Yoruba word is 'Isu'
..you are right though..
.
Lol, fun facts we call maize Oka...I think the Igbos call it the same ..I suspect influence of the Old Benin Empire who ruled those regions indirectly in earlier centuries.

..dividing Nigeria will be a mess. Where does the Delta guys go to? If they go to Niger Delta republic ..what of the far flung akwa ibom and Calabar people.... .
.
The civil war was a war of the old Eastern region and to which Delta and Edo did not belong....

.what of the middle belt what becomes of them?

I only see Biafra actualised if the proponents stick to the number of SE states there is presently ...then Niger Deltas will want a separate republic too .....

Givaxy:

E pain am. Weak Benin empire with 4 local governmemts

geemd434:



Britain is an over hype empire but your people were slaves to them for years. The land mass of Nigeria was given by the British.

You don't call Oyo an empire. Boy! Oyo was never an empire. Yorubas with their slavery attitude will get to a land and serve them they reproduce. They are never in conflict with the owners of the land because they are wimps. That's how you people penetrate. Like the itsekiri in Delta .

Uchasa:


And the people who voted in a Fulani man who is dealing with them are not problems??
You need mental check up

geemd434:


There is never a Benin slave. Tell me how Yorubas got to Benin republic, Togo, Ghana Cuba Brazil Argentina. It was Tru slave trade baby . It was Tru slave trade. History tells us that. And you history can't lie. Yorubas are beating cest because they have the backing off the north. The north will soon find friends in the South south and you people will return been slaves. Ask tinubu

You are right. Which is why I said majority do not speak Yoruba dialects like you thought. Akoko in itself is a big region that ought to have been made a state, all things being equal.

hotwax:


Its fooolish yorubas and benins that fight... Thier forefathers were brothers. Benin appointment of Oba is organized by Yorubas..I dont know why you people fight.

Benin kindom was well know all over the world. Same with Oyo...Oyo empire may be larger..but they were both influential
