Paraman:They are not. Maybe the urhobos but certainly not those asaba,ogwashuku,kwale,IJAW... We Edos got nothing in common traditionally and culturally with them. They are Anioma and have strong cultural and traditional ties with the Igbos. |

Paraman:Yes and that's cos the whole of Delta today was part of the old Bendel with the capital in Benin city. But Bendel is really all about the Edo.. today it is Edo state and all the components of Edo,the Benins,Esan,Afemai which consists of the Auchi,Owan people are all Edoid. All offshoots of the Benin kingdom. It's only the people of Akoko Edo,Igarra,who are also part of Afemai,that are not really Edo! Their language and music is more related to the Kwara kogi Igalla something. They also speak a lot of yoruba as well in Igarra. Only the Urhobos in delta are Edo people who went very far away from home and only God knows what happened to them and who they mixed with that gave them their present kinda language and cultural lifestyle. So in essence,the Benins are top in the kingdom and if anything happens today,the old Benin kingdom and empire will be returned and it doesn't include any outsiders whether asaba or ogwash or kwale, everybody go answer him papa name for him own country. I really wish for that. |

AfonjaConehead:Delta state and Edo state is one. No part of this area has ever been part of the eastern region. Even ojukwu didn't integrate them into Biafra. No part of Delta state will be part of Biafla 2 Likes |

Paraman:Well I don't know or bother myself about that. The only thing that concerns me is the return of the old Benin kingdom and empire...that the great Obas,Oba Ovoramwen,Oba Esigie,Oba Ewuare,etc built. Nothing like asaba, ogwashuku kwale IJAW and even urhobo there .... The delta got their own destiny, especially the Ijaws. |
Re: Why Was Edo State Deliberately Cut-off From The Atlantic Ocean? by AfonjaConehead: 10:11pm On May 17 |
Paraman:Guy there's nothing like Edo/Delta nation,where the hell you getting this from. In the days of the great Obas of Benin,there was nothing like delta people in the kingdom. There's no cultural and traditional ties between the Edos and the people of delta state apart from a little from the urhobos. The Ijaws speak IJAW language and the others,asaba, ogwashuku kwale are more close to the Igbos as they speak same language. Edo got no ties at all with the igbos |

Almaigaa: Don't mind them. Even Southern Kaduna doesn't create thread upon thread asking about territory. Taraba people don't. Niger Delta, the life wire of the country doesn't. That's despite they have tried to secede before. It's ONLY Igbos who are obsessed with the topic. They are very easy to spot from miles away ![]() 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Zooposki: Those parts in Edo state that share boundaries with Ondo state are Yoruba speaking communities that were mapped into Edo state. If we Yorubas take back what belongs to them, Edo will have no access to any ocean even if there is adjustment. So, how is this wickedness? There is no single Edo community on the bank of the Atlantic Ocean. Even from historical account, the old Benin never had access to sea. It’s on record that when they wanted to attack in current Lagos, it was the Ijaws and Ilajes that helped them to Lagos on water. So, how do you want Edo to have access to the ocean when they have no community or village on the bank of the ocean? Do you want to kill the Ilajes, Ijaws and Urhobo who are there? 1 Like |
