historyworld031: Mynd44, this is an insult to the entire Niger Delta and and south west and south east. For there is only one Oba: Omo n'Oba n'Edo. Rule 2
Nobody stops your oba lording over you, just as you should not stop the Pere lording over his people.
chukxie: Very interesting. The Yorubas have been traveling and living in England for a very, very long time. Little wonder some boroughs in London are mini 'YorubaTowns'. Hats off to them.
The governor said the Ijaws in Edo are no strangers to the customs of Edoland, they have been here for centuries and we have never had problems, but all of a sudden it came up”, he said. Obaseki my boy. U dey fear say I go beat u and ur idiot oba abi?
For Bini peeps mind dem go over run Ijaw pple o. Na wa o, Ijaw ppl dey try make peace Bini pple dey form stunch. When e go apen dat goat wey dem dey call their oba go run leave im palace o.
I have noticed you. You speak foolishness with great confidence online. Do you know the difference between Ijoid and Edoid language families ? Educate yourself. Ogbia is derived from Edoid and not Ijoid family of Niger Congo languages. Just because GEJ's tribe is in Bayelsa does not make them Ijaw people. You might as well say everybody in Kaduna is Hausa. Stop engaging me online with your ignorance. I want to discuss with people who have knowledge.
Read the linked article.
shut up speaking edoid language does not make Ogbia non-Ijaw. And don't drag ogbonuma into ur stupid argument.
historyworld030: Ijaw, you guys need to stop your fabrications, and get more educated. Edo history is too well documented. And contrary to what you think, the Oba of Benin is not just the Oba of Benin City. His real title is Omo n'Oba n'Edo. He is the King of the Benin Kingdom. Benin City is only the capital of the Benin Kingdom, not the Kingdom itself ! Edo state is a small part of the Kingdom and you ijaw are trying to crown a "king" in a part of an already established kingdom. I hope you people can understand this and stop your madness ! When you migrate into an area, try and learn the history of the land. Don't just start making claims of "we were here first" and don't start "crowning" your "son" in a foreign land, you might get slaughtered by the owners of the land. This is an advise and a warning!
Na wa o. Ijaws are not Binis so y should they be ruled by the oba? Mr Governor for your good and that of your oba ensure that nothing happens to the Ijaws under your rule. Egberi fa o!
