Nigeria was called Benin before is this true
the person that ruled Nigeria before was the Oba of Benin and before any European want to trade with Nigeria he has to get his approved is this
true too.

if all this is true why are yoruba claiming and igbo claiming every fact history of the Benin

exclude northern Nigeria because it is formerly called western Sudan Land

i gusse this you said is also fact too.

but what do you think of a tribe claiming the history that is not his, am from Yoruba but my mother is from benin, studying the 2 history and digging some fact makes me to realize Benin owns the history that is been copied by Yoruba, am not talking about of the oduduwa. after his rain benin become the formal Nigeria till the invasion

benin empire is nothing but a fraud,the history of Benin is built upon lies that they told the colonial masters Benin empire is but an insignificant land that is not even large enough to be considered an empire

but you that is not fraud or lying cant still even explain the picture above. Yoruba and igbo king holding the staff of Benin from 16th century or more till date.

labani06:

not only south but western and eastern am talking with fact that maps above is only the one recognize by the European who come to africa then, the rest u see Yoruba in it is written by a Yoruba man if you check the source same apply with igbo. but if the map is too hard for them to explain let them explain the pictures of their king holding Benin staff of office given to them by Oba of Benin

bro that staff is a benin name have a history in benin and dont have in other tribe, even if you will go to ishekeri royal family they will tell you how it was given to them by oba of Benin.

that staff is called eben is the greatest warrior in benin then that won it, and then after years ago oba started given it to benin price or a person who is install as a king in the benin empire region or a tribe the benin conquered making them a republic nation only to benin

Yoruba, Igala, edo and Igbo spoke thesame language 1500 years ago, then they split up don’t know why or what caused that

That is actual history stop this dick measurement thread

Weedfree:

there is noting like eden. if i ask you now you wont even know what u just said [eden] means. eben is what is called and it has a meaning in benin and do not have in other tribe, i repeat 90% nations that was under or in the Benin kingdom still use it till date.


Owo first king is a direct descendant of oba esigie of benin i will advise you to go direct to their royal home and ask them this

then a picture here you can see the king of lagos who is also a decendant of oba of benin with a benin staff ada and eben and also you will see olu of warri with same thing and then you will see oni holding a Yoruba staff, so why the owo king and lagos king didn't hold the Yoruba staff instead they choose the Benin eben and ada. ask yourself this.

listen kid I don't know who told you owo kings are from Benin when they claim ife as their origin, you are probably one of those Benin fan boys who let their lies pass on from generations to generations that you actually believe the stupid things you are posting and why did you say OBA of Lagos when he is just an oba of a small part of Lagos that your weak Benin empire told the white men and for the record you slowpoke the word I missed spelled auto corrected itself

DUDE why are you saying things that don't make sense Yoruba is not a slave name it is what sultan bello of the sokoto caliphate called them and sure they are some other meaning of Yoruba but none if them relate to slave. Really look who is talking when your Benin name is an insult given by your oba who left after releasing how rude you people are left and you mentioned zamfara kingdom which after being conquered by sokoto caliphate changed their name becoming one with sokoto caliphate and then disposed of their king and kept an Emir

actually I think you should do a little research, Benin empire also included ondo and much of Ogun, and even ekiti, the boundary is in otun ekiti

am sure you got land in some of those places but you nerve conquered the ijebus, ijesha, egbas, and lots more land in those areas unlike true empires like Oyo, Bornu, sokoto, are some of the empires that are legit. Oyo empire extended over Benin republic, Ghana, Togo while Bornu empire extended all the way to north Africa and sokoto caliphate all the way to Cameroon, and Niger and you just keep talking about your one to be empire.

Oyo nevered extended to this areas you speak of the europeans only felt the prrsence of the benin empire when they arrived at 14c down till 18c they never withness the imaginery oyo empire you speak of if it really have this speakable popularity you speak of. usman danfodio never reigned beyond the present northern nigeria.the benins on the other hand had all influence on the southern part of nigeria as early as 14c which the Portuguese noticed and wrote down the bight of benin was taken by dahomey as a sign of a grest empire that had indirect influence on the peoole which oyo couldnt archive

Hi Troll
You wanted master to reply Weedfree thy royal highness says Hi.
Let your master,your ancestor and alpha educate u in history.
U Benin people like telling lies like u predate ife you conquered all of south west but the Portuguese sent ADVISER to Benin and your oba told them what he wanted to belief but they are a lot of kingdoms you did'n conquer like ijebu, and ijesha land and really too empire may or may not of existed but the fact is Benin kingdom never conquered all of south west.
Ife art works predate that of ur own I mean really unless u have a art work dated 800AC and an European explorer said this may be the lost city of Atlantis an if u recall an ife man thought it people how to mode.
