Benin City is a reserve of rich traditions and high reverence for the traditional monarch (Oba of Benin), who once led a powerful Empire.
One of such traditions is the habit of
addressing the Oba of Benin by various
appellations instead of his actual names as sign of deep respect and awe. It is no wonder, therefore, that the Oba of Benin
is known by several appellations.

Such appellations are:
Ovbi' Umogun Oza
The Child of the Oba whose mother hailed from Oza

The son of the home leopard

Ovbi' Adimila
The son of Adimila

Which Oba's mother hailed from Oza? And would that be Oza-Aibokunla in Edo State or Oza-Nogogo in Delta State?

I know both Ozas are related, but I want to know if someone knows which side specifically in Oza this Oba's mother (who I suspect is Ewuare) hailed from.

Stop fooling yourself the story of benin-ife emerged after 1914 except you want to prove me wrong with proved dating from 15c to 1913

If you cant shut your trap oba has been the title of benin
The title ogiso is a mystical tales told by the benins to make their royalty divine there was never an ogiso... But oba

That is the kinglist taking by Roupell's 1899 a year after benin was invaded the king list never included oromiyan neither did Roupell's mentioned it in his book, after 1930s talbot took is own kinglist and included oromiyan, esekhure took is kinglist and absconded oromiyan

Of the oba of benin there must be foul play here .....
Lol.... Yoruba just want to attach themselves to us by force, a tribe of 40millions are still begging to attach themselves with a 2 million tribe
The irony of life
One would think after we sacrifice their ancestors to appease our gods we would have been asworn enemy in modern times,and even next life


Abeg to disgrace you further please post the link of the article's lets everyone see if the stroked was really there initially or you added them and lets verify if its a Yoruba man that wrote the article tok

Nowere is the stroked use to praise the oba in benin

Why are you so bent on denying the obvious with illogical arguments and ursupation of Yoruba culture as yours e.g recently Itsekiri Ile-Ibinu, Ogboni, Okun or Oba?

This is too glaring. Unless you are not a real Bini, Edo form of Osu or outright slave of Oba.

Your denials and formation are too obsessive to be persuasive.

I see your Osagyfo98...... You came with your other account, if u pick a benin history to read you wont be making such mumuish statement

Am different from you, because i relearn everyday what i had previously learnt before,
But you, you're so afraid to relearn and accept truth dont worry i will bring the evidence to you alk soon

No one had argued the false benin-ife narrative than me, before now, but it was not aways adding up instead of attacking me Pick a benin history and research on it,

bini na yoruba abeg. no difference between the two.

Bini royalty is 100% birthed by Ife. Even the Oba knows it. Anyone that argues otherwise is under the curse of the Oba.

The question is how deep do you know both history or are you afraid to relearn history or accept truth,

Shut your stinking lying mouth, @gregyboy aka @Edeyoung

I wonder where your rotten brain got 1914 from when Roupell himself who collected the data from Benin in 1897 stated clearly that the first Oba of Benin (Eweka1) is a Yoruba man from Ife.

Don’t be dumb gregyboy, aka Edeyoung.

The evidence was provided at the very instant I substantiated the statement with its reference. I am not sure you realize what burden of proof is.

In case you’re wondering, I didn’t give birth to you. So stop feeling entitled that I must provide you with books.

Although I may choose to assist you and your parents, it’s you and your parents’ responsibility — not mine — to provide you with books.

My burden of proof is to substantiate any claim I make with the relevant statements and their appropriate references. And I have done exactly that.

It then becomes your burden, and not mine, to check up the material and cry bitterly at your regular corner; or return here to prove that the material does not contain what I have attributed to it.

Please stop that! The Ogiso Dynasty was very real. I am Urhobo and our migration history is centered around the Ogiso era and not the Oba Dynasty. Urhobo-Isoko history tells of migration of our ancestors from ancient Udo when it was under the Ogiso Dynasty. The Binis may have lost records of the Ogiso period, but the story of the Ogisos is still very strong in Urhobo-Isoko folklores and ancient stories. Infact, we are more familiar with the Ogiso story than with that of the Oba, because much of Urhobo-Isoko ancestors have left (due to the crises that followed the collapse of the Ogiso Dynasty) before the emergence of the Oba Dynasty. Up to date, there is more mention of ancient "Udo" town (which was the capital the kingdom ruled by the Ogisos known as Aka kingdom) than "Benin" in Urhobo-Isoko folklores because as at the time our ancestors migrated to our present locations the name "Benin" has not come into use.

@Kirigidi: Please note that the comment of the guy whom you just quoted is a manifestation of his internal troubles, viz. cognitive dissonance.

The only reason he has chosen to delude himself to this extent is so that he can avoid the next obvious truth — which is the fact that a foreign monarchy from Yorubaland (i.e. the ‘Oba’ monarchy) came at some point in history to supplant his indigenous Edo monarchy (i.e. the ‘Ogiso’ monarchy).

He is deluded, brace yourself.
