flyover30: lool elaborate more abeg. Those so called bini gods are from Yorubaland. Ogun was an Ekiti warrior who founded Ire. Sango/Isango was an Oyo man. Esu, Ifa, Orunmila, Olokun etcc all Yoruba. You people even call sacrifice Ebo. ![]() There are so many Yoruba words in edo language as well. Do not think the Binis have some kind of monopoly of influence. ![]() Iyan (pounded yam), Ogban (30), Aga (Chair), Gedu (Timber), Ewu (Blouse/clothing top), Iyi (Honor), Agan (Barren), Bata (Shoe), Ishana (Matchstick), Oko (Canoe), Ologbo (Cat), Elubo (Flour), Ago (Camp), Abe (Blade/Razor), Agbo (Ram), Adugbo (which ypu people call “Edogbo”)-Neighborhood, Pataki/Kpataki (Important). Etc etc. Too numerous to enumerate here. There are also towns in Edo with their origin in IFE. Go and do your research well and come back. Lets us look at Nigeria right now... give 3 examples of how so called bini culture is superior to yoruba culture like you say. Waiting.... 15 Likes 4 Shares |

flyover30: We equally agree, but it does not negate the fact that 1. Our ancestor established the current lineage of Obas in Bini 2. You worship our gods. 3. The crown of Oba is our crown 4. The title of an Oba is Yorubas. Bini used to call theirs Ogiso. 5. We have a bigger kingdom. 6. The name of your city Benin was named by us - Ile Ibinu. With all these, we agree that you are superior. Sarcasm!!! 14 Likes 2 Shares |

I was taught in history back then that a chief was banished from Bini kingdom to exile and he went to Lagos. After so many years he became a chief or oba in Lagos. Bini kingdom used to be very large before the British invaded and conquered the kingdom. 1 Like |

There should be no argument about this,the settlers from Benin owns lagos the man claimed,he knows he is a benin man and benin is located in the midwest part of Nigeria.If migrants claims a country,mungo park should claim the ownership of Nigeria.Mungo park died and he could not move his discovery to England.First settlers are different from indegines,because Yoruba people are welcoming and accommodating all tribes want to claim their land.My take on the whole bruhaha is that the man should go back to his Bini land and leave Lagos for the indigines. 9 Likes 1 Share |

ritababe: Yoruba's honour Oduduwa because he was their first king and he came at a time their Oracles told them someone powerful is coming to their territory to rule them...they rightly identified Oduduwa when he came and made him king. Before him, the Yoruba's just had mainly Baales and Baloguns. They had other smaller kings too in other sub territories (like the Ugbo in Ondo state) but they had limited powers. Oduduwa was the first general king. As for the bold, kindly provide a reference to what you claim the Ooni has clarified. As it stands, the throne of the Ooni is superior to and older than that of the Oba of Bini, the Oba of Bini is a descendant of the Ooni. However, the throne of the Ooni was from the Ogiso of Bini (the rulers in Binis first dynasty) which is no longer in existence... the banishment of Oduduwa caused the shift in power. Now, Bini has Oba, not Ogiso. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

An utterly confused man...I guess Olayiwola Ajayi that he and his ancestors bears too is a Bini name. Imagine the man saying aworis are Bini . Eti Osa LGA is the ancestral land of the Aworis. The whole of Lekki/Epe are part of the Ijebu kingdom. The fact that Lagos island (not Lagos) once fall under the colony of Bini, doesn't make them the owners of the land, the same way Nigeria doesn't belong to the British. 9 Likes 4 Shares |
