AnnaKareninaFan: Here is a detailed academic research/write up abou the histrory of Kings in Yoruba, Ile Ife and Benin. Has any Oba of Benin from history been a member of governing council at Ife? If yes. Why? And why must Oba of Benin’s head be buried at Ife if Ile Ife is not the source for the two tribes? Oba of Benin must be courageous to explain this fact of history. It is often said that it is a taboo to bury a king in exile. Ile Ife from all indications and by having the heads of all the late kings of Benin and that of Oranmiyan himself buried at Ile Ife to this writer is the source of Edos and Yoruba and this fact must not be distorted with sentiments.

YourNemesis: In fact the King of Bini is not an Oba....he is a Omo n'Oba. They now want to escape their rightful position as a "begotten of Yoruba" and start classifying their king as Oba. We havent given you authority to use Oba yet, stick with use of Omo n Oba. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Onijagidijagan:If u study history very well, u wil notice dat bfor d comin of d British, Yoruba kings were not knwn by d title "Oba". Rather, they were bearin various titles such as Alaafin, Ooni, Alake, Deji, Ewi, Olu, Baale, etc. Only d Benin monarchs were knwn to hav bin consistent wit d use of d title "Oba" frm d start as documentd by early Portuguese Explorers who visitd d empire in d 15th century AD! D title "OBA" is derived frm d Edoid word "OGBA" which translates to mean, "THE STRONG", "THE POWERFUL", "THE MIGHTY" or "THE GREAT"! D use of d Oba title by Yoruba kings was a later adaptation copied frm d Binis owing to d fame nd prestige of d Benin Monarchy. Nd also, don't forget dat d Binis conquerd nd ruled large parts of Yorubaland! 8 Likes 1 Share |

Kirigidi: Bini Kings themselves were not known as Oba before Eweka, son of Oranmiyan gave them that title, because he didn't want to be called an Ogiso.....And he was right, as he was the son of an OBA, not the son of an Ogiso. That was the source of the Bini title (Omo n'Oba) Stop twisting history 6 Likes 1 Share |

The Esogban never said that what he simply said was taking the title of Oba by the yoruba rulers is pretty recent, as recent as 1950 and he gave his evidence with the meeting held in Benin around 1942 of western traditional rulers that none of them was answering "Oba" then that it was eleko,alake, oluibadan etc or so, please do re-read the article before you misquote him! hupernikao: 1 Like |

Oranmiyan was the grandson of Oduduwa a fearless warrior that ousted the Ogiso dynasty and conquer Benin Kingdom. Shortly afterwards, the Eweka dynasty was founded by Oranmiyan. Oranmiyan spent some years in Benin before returning to Ife to subsequently establish a Yoruba kingdom at Oyo . It is said that he left Benin (called Ubinu those days) in anger, for its palace intrigues and fights over power caused by the brother of the last Ogiso, as synonymous with 'vexations'. On his way home to Ife, Oranmiyan stopped briefly at Ego, where he impregnated Princess Erimwinde, the daughter of the duke of Ego, in short order. She is then believed to have given birth to a son named Eweka (also called Owomika in bini dialect according to oral tradition). Eweka happens to be the first Oba of Benin, title associated with Yoruba Obas. So wat re we saying again coz d Benin pple doesn't followed history. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Why so much envy for the Yorubas. Are these ppl cra..zy? Well I'm not surprised. Ppl always envy ppl who are far ahead of them. Ordinary small benin wey dey backyard dey form boss. Whether benin ppl like it or not, Yorubas are their BIG uncles/fathers/grandfathers. You don't accept, kill yourself. Na Igbo ppl self go dey jealous. And the funny thing is Yorubas don't give a pheck bout ya all. How many ppl even dey the benin Kingdom self. 1 Like 1 Share |
