Slavery and Oppression existed amongst the Blacks way before the white Man came accros.
The Black Man should not despise the White for Organising and executing it en Mass with so much coordination and aplomb.

Everyone who has any form of intelligence will know that Ikwerres are just playing to the gallery. There is absolutely nothing Benin related about Ikwerre. Either in dressing, language or culture. Ikwerre had Igbo slaves as well.

Ikwerre's are lost clans of igbos owned by the bini's as slaves, why will they play to the gallery?

The Royal kings of ikwerre are EZEs and Igwes that is igbo if the ikwerre are not igbos at least their kingship royals should be distinct

We Igbos also have Yoruba ,Benin and itshekiri slaves among us.

We also have Benin and Yoruba related names in our Igboland

You are getting it wrong.

Bearing Yoruba and Benin names in Iboland means you were once their slaves but emancipated later, and not the other way round.

At the height of the Bini reign, they literary own almost every other tribes and dictate to them. Urhobos, Itsekiris, even the Yorubas. But every tribe does have their strong points! [s]Idumota area in Lagos is the name of a bini princess! Ironically, modern day Benin is a shadow of what the Bini kingdom use to be![/s]

Fixed. Tiny bini village is too small to lord it over Itsekiri let alone the Great Yoruba race.

It is also funny that African Americans are not paying homage to their roots daily.
Some are even dragging America with "real" Americans.
Aswear grin
I have heard a black American trying to draw a distinction between African-Americans and just Africans.
In disgust, he goes; you are not even an African-American, you're African!
It's human nature, everyone one just want to feel superior to the next person.

The Bini was never in partnership with the Itsekiris, rather Itsekiris was the Bini Subject (slaves) just as the igbos. Reno is trying to paint his people as a potential rulers along side the Binis, which was not so. Benin empire conquer all region in the South-south and south-southwest.

Fixed. Tiny bini village too small to even look the Great Yoruba race in the eye.

You don't see the bright side. We can now lay claim on Warri..
He wished they had Igbo slaves. Now our Job is to accept and lay claim on Warri like we are already doing on Bini.
When words can't prove points, they will be forced to fight us. Something we will accept and gain more land.
Remember, Warri has sea front and oil.
Think ahead

Yorubas will come to the aid of Warri,they are our kith and kin.

Owned Urhobo slaves? How?

I’ve never seen that before

Not Urhobo slaves, but the kingship in Urhobo land pays homage to the King in Benin.

In past time, when an Urhobo king dies, the head is cut off and sent to Bini kingdom for keeps. The new selected king has to go to Benin to pick his late fathers skull, if he picks the wrong one, he is killed.

This is a tradition that has been upheld for centuries, I really do not know about now though, since politics and government has turned everything sideways.

In as much as I am not a fan of Reno but as a historian, his narration are historical in order but history as a field of study in the humanities ( all of humanities) is open to interpretations and debates.

One fact is that slave trade transversed all the nooks and crannies of West Africa with those from the coastals deeply involved. However, I will not agree or disagree with Reno. I will chew on this one and check my books.
U re learned sir.
But that ur moniker is suggesting sentiments and stereotype.
May i ask why?

Davido's son has a yoruba surname, he belongs to the yoruba ethnic group with royal kings such as ooni ofe, and oba

I don't have an english name I have a religious Christian name which makes me a Christian by religion not by tribe


No tribe in Nigeria speaks only pidgin if you have any mention it to me, so the 40% you gave here is completely trash and if there is any tribe in Nigeria who speaks nothing but pidgin english then I will tell you that tribe is completely destroyed for destroying their language


Ikwerre can not have EZE and Igwe as their kings if they were never igbos they were the igbo slaves owned by the bini's rone talks about

The argument of ikwerre being igbos or not started during the civil war when the started denying igbo it has nothing to do with nnamdi KANU

Hausa and yoruba is taught in school too why only learn igbo
This is where your types are getting it wrong. Ikwerre people are saying that Igbo is Ikwerre and not the other way.
Don't mind the size or your population.
We bear Eze as name. As a title it could be a borrowed one as one rulers bear Nye we Ali or Eli depending the part of Ikwerre you are.
See tell your kind the is difference between who speaks Igbo and Igboid language. Someone who speaks Igbo is an Igbo person. Someone who speaks Igboid is not necessary an Igbo person but may have got some relationship with Igbo people. ..
