Thy took several villages close to Abeokuta and temporarily chased the egbas until the egbas realized that they were women and they then rallied back to chase them all the way back to Dahomey. The amazons as they are called are women warriors used by king gezo to fight his wars and terrorize his neighbour's....they were amazing but were no match for the great Oyo empire's military 8 Likes 2 Shares |

1. Dahomey fought the egba and not the Oyo or the whole Yorubas like your topic title claims. Yoruba as a tribe did not exist during that period. 2. The dahomeans NEVER conquered or defeated the egba people in Abeokuta. Not true. They tried to conquer Abeokuta but were pushed back and thousands of them killed. Abeokuta warriors were known to cut the head and peepee of the enemy soldiers, that's how they got to know that they had been fighting women. . At this time, both Abeokuta and Dahomy were under the Oyo empire. The first Invasion took place on Monday the 3rd of March 1851 around 3.43 pm. Commander Forbes, a British Naval officer, and Mr Beecroft, the consul for the Bights of Benin and Biafra were at Abomey (the capital of Dahomey) to make a deal to stop the incessant raids on Abeokuta and its neighbouring states. It was during this meeting that the Dahomeans concluded their plans of attacking Abeokuta once again. https://guardian.ng/life/the-1851-invasion-of-abeokuta-by-the-lethal-dahomey-amazon-warriors/ |

Jagaban2012: Point of correction, Ojukwu left 2 days to the end of the war because he knew the war has been lost, your problem is that you wanted to him killed like Gadafi of Lybia which failed. he is a brave man with courage.
