UGBE634:Are you actually slow, or pretending to be slow?? Lol. ![]() At what point did I inform you or any of your fellow miscreants that a [eastern] Yoruba community [in the frontier area of Benin kingdom] beheaded your oba? The most I have noted is that IFE alone conquered and continues to conquer the Edos for some 800 years till date and still counting. You are conquered linguistically (to a fair extent), you are conquered politically (the Ife dynasty), you are conquered theologically (the Yoruba deities), you are conquered psychologically, etc. I also mentioned the humiliation your oba had to face — that is, the fact that your oba had to placate and plead with Ogedengbe even after he had meted untold carnage upon your oba’s kingdom. And I also mentioned that in the course of engaging some eastern frontier Yoruba communities in battle, Benin (even as relatively big as it is in comparison to each of these much relatively smaller communities) still recorded “important casualties on some occasions (e.g. Iken, et al.), as well as” recorded “outright loss on some occasions”. I did make it clear in my foregoing comment that it was the “humiliation of your oba … [that] … I was particular on” with respect to the fat that your oba Ozolua was beheaded — at no point did I dwell on who was responsible, or who wasn’t. So, stop attempting to veil your humiliation in front of me. ![]() [s]She fought Ado, she will fight Ado ekiti in Benin ?[/s]At this point, it’s looking like selective seeing is a real thang among Bini miscreants. Did you (or did you not) see the part where I wrote the following words?: “Wait a second! He was summoned to fight, or he was summoned to settle a dispute. You and your folks should make up your mind now or never.

Oduduwa was an invention of Samuel Johnson the oyo returnee slave who sort to unite the yoruba into one ancestory after the yoruba Civil war in 1897 Izoduwa was an edo invention of Oduduwa history who they used to counter the Oduduwa version of the yoruba history it came to be in 1970s invented by oba erediawa Both izoduwa and Oduduwa are frictional fantasy |
Re: The Name Lagos, Was Called Ekonunuame By The Benins by samuk: 1:16pm On Aug 03, 2021 |
Christistruth00: I understand your pains. The Oduduwa myth is one very important myths the Yoruba desperately want to believe to be true, but unfortunately, it's what it is, a fabrication born out of myth without historical evidence backing it. Benin/Ife history was concocted after the fall of Benin empire in 1897. There were no mention of Ife, Oduduwa and Oranmiyan in the eyewitness documented Benin history between 1400s to 1800s. I have severally challenged TAO11 to show such evidence but I suspect I may have to wait until the chicken grows teeth before she can find such evidence. In summary: 1. There wasn't Benin/Ife relationship in Benin history until 1897, after the fall of Benin empire. 2. Between 1400s to 1890 vast parts of Yoruba land was either directly or indirectly ruled, colonised or influenced by Benin. The other parts such as Ilorin was under the Fulani. 3. The first time the Europeans visited the hinterland of Yoruba was 1824. The Alaafin of Oyo was the leader of Yoruba people, not the Ooni of Ife. 4. Any history of Yoruba before 1824 largely centred around the coastline of Yoruba not the hinterland. 5. The current Benin/Ife connection is purely political history not back up by historical evidence. 6. There are only two great kingdoms in Nigeria, Benin and Fulani's Sokoto caliphate. Benin dominated the Nigeria space for over 500 years. The Fulani took over in the 1800s and still nominating. 7. The Ooni is not even the spiritual leader of most Yoruba people. The Yoruba people being mostly muslims, the Sultan of Sokoto who have to sight the moon before the commencement of Islamic festivities in Nigeria is the spiritual leader of more than half the population of Yoruba people. 8. Yoruba were once under Benin, today they are under the Fulani. I know how you guys desperately want the Oba of Benin to be Yoruba, but sorry to break your heart, he is not Yoruba and has no Yoruba ancestry. The Yoruba are not the only ones claiming the Oba of Benin, the Igbo and Igala also have their claims. We only hear more of the Yoruba claims because you guys are more vocal with your claim. TAO11 opinions and assumptions doesn't amount to history, I am not interested in any of her shenanigans unless she can show me evidence in either Benin or Yoruba history before 1824 that says the Oba of Benin was related to Yoruba. Yoruba hinterland eyewitness historical accounts may be relatively young haven't only began in 1824 compared to Benin, there are avalanches of Benin eyewitnesses historical accounts spanning over 400 years for TAO11 and any other Yoruba to research and provide evidences of Benin/Ife relationship before 1824. No matter how long a lie is told, it can never become truth. Unless you guys can provide historical evidence backing your claims, you guys can continue to wallow in your lies. 5 Likes 5 Shares |
