Caseless:
where is Aku again?

This guy know everywhere. Herdsmen don't attack igala people.

FYI, God the father and God the Son are two different persons. One God head but different persons.
You forget God does not need ANY prayer. Christ was 100% man and was praying to God as any man would (same reason he made “forsaken” statement), does not mean God needed the prayers.

What’s with u and this karma stuff. Evidence abound around you that nature does not operate based on karma. A lion kills innocent animals all day long yet no one ever kills it. Explain that karma. People are kings today because of atrocities and subjugation of others perpetrated by their ancestors. Explain that karma.

I keep saying u do not understand because u clearly do not understand. Hope this our little discussion helps u understand a bit. Accept that Lord Jesus died for your sins. Become a follower of His.

Thehumanlloydl:

Well I hope soon enough you'll realize, no man can die for the sins you committed.
It's you that said "Christ was 100% man" and it's still you that's saying a 100% man can die for your sin. You're just contradicting yourself.
Well I can't debate much longer with you, I hate loops! And I will never follow a "100% man" when I can follow his Father, The Divine!

Akpacha:
including those stupid things u called parents.

U forget he is 100% God. While on earth he WAS both 100% man and 100% God. Throughout the Old Testament God accepted blood sacrifice for remission of sins. Eventually, for the once and for all time wiping of sins, God the Son Himself was sacrificed so that whoever believeth in him is saved

Meet??











I don't "meet" dead people mbok.

Thehumanlloydl:

Loops....
Again if he was 100% man and God, he wouldn't have needed to intercede!
You're indirectly saying Jesus and God were different entities but you can't even understand your ignorance.
It should be obvious to you but you've been brought up with a similar thinking pattern so your backfire effect is intense.

CanadaOrBust:


Just give your life to Christ guy and end the childish semantic debate. I’m sure u know instinctively the truth being shown u:
Lord Jesus and God the Father are indeed different persons but fully God. While retaining His deity, the Person Jesus came to earth and became 100% man WHILE ON EARTH. He prayed and ate and experienced pain just as men do. He then left that human experience and went back to the Father as part of one God, where he is now simply 100% God.

Most documented events that happened in Benin where in 1400s, 1500s, 1600s and 1700s and you are here telling me about 1898. 1898 is like yesterday when discussing Benin.

johnpablo541:


So what is the name of the first church in benin and what year was it built?

samuk:


Holy Arousa was built in the 1500s by Oba Esigie of Benin who was educated in a seminary in Portugal. You can Google and learn about the history of Oba Esigie online, there are documents and letters written from Benin to Portugal dating back to the 1550s in the Portuguese museum. The last imperial king of Benin was deposed by the British in 1897. Benin imperial history was already over before your so called church of 1898 was even built.

Holy Arousa is not a church. It is more like a shrine.

Is the lord Jesus Christ worshiped in Holy Arousa?

Holy Arousa wasn't built in the 1500s

IamCharles123:

Oga calm down, the igala had no beef with benin, the op story is not very accurate, it was the jukuns the igala had beef with.

Akpacha:
U the mind the small boy, that face ATTAH is carrying was cease from oba of Benin throne. We no be their mate. Proudly Igala.

Carsontyqa:
You want teach me my history ni? What u read online are misguided data from vloggers.. It jukuns.

gregyboy:



Am a benin person and do you want to also teach me my history too

IamCharles123:

Meaning i read the story of the junku war, not that of the benin.

gregyboy:



What tribe are you....

Both tribe agrees to the story and it was a result of the war the popular festac mask was carved by the benins to represnt queen idah who went extreme to defeat the igalas probably youre not of this earth... Or maybe your tribe

TeamSimple:

I was replying someone who asked me if I believed in Jesus died for sins story and not the Igala lady

babtoundey:
When I was serving in Lokoja, Council of Arts and Culture, my boss tasked me to adapt a stage play to screen play. The play centers on Igala Jukun war and how the Atta Idoko sacrificed his only beloved daughter so as to defeat the exploiting and extorting Jukun of the Ikwarefa empire.

It was a good read and a good write for me.

And you were not told the inikpi story that made the attah to start wearing festack mask

babtoundey:



The faction I read had little or nothing to do with Benin. Inkpi story is in relation to Jukun not Benin. Igala Benin war came up at earlier or later time

gregyboy:


The story was misplaced by the other ....

Do you know the world idah used in kogi
Is the benin queen who assisted the oba of benin to war the igalas....

Her name was queen idia n' esigie
I.e idia" the mother of oba esigie who went for the war ....

Lemme brief the history since you an igala man

It all started when the oba of benin and his chiefs in the palace had some argument while the where gisting, the oba told his chiefs that women are promiscuous in nature .and they will flirt with any one for wealth ...all agreed except a chief , "chief oliha" who happened to have a beautiful wife he insisted that his wife was different and disciplined, unlike every other ladies ,and the chiefs mocked him in return, that no lady is worth trusting, but he insisted he can bet on the trust of his wife ,they all disagreed with him and mocked him till he left the palace angrily..,
When he left, the oba and the other insisted to try this is precious trust worthy wife ,they planned to send a criple in the palace to her with precious coral beads ,to entice her, the cripple succeeded in enticing her and slept with her ,the news of a criple sleeping with a high ranked chief wife flawed the entire benin ,and they made mockery of the chief in return ,the chief who was angry and couldnt bear
it , inreturn got angry and told the oba that for what he did benin must fall.....
He left and seeked help with the attah of igala and his fierced warriors ,he told the igalas that they can conqure benin he told them the military tactics and the weakness of the benin ,so the igalas eventually did a surprise attack on benins ,killing people on several attacks one of the attacks they did they stole the oba bronze head ,the oba had to stop the attack ,so when they came back again to attack again the benin warriros prepared thier army's and chased them back to lokoja but they couldn't cross the river so the benins ,seek the help of the Portuguese because their military tactics were already disclosed to the igalas
The portuguese asisted but the igala warriors resisted, because the benin warriors couldn't also cross the river...it was already spilling doom, if they cant cross the river....words was sent to queen idia in benin to the oba mother ,she went to see a native doctor who equiped her with jazz to cross the river ,when she got to lokoja she used her charm to calm the river and the benin warriors passsd the war was now at the door step of the igalas ,the benin warriors was merciless for them ,the attah saw they were losing the war when they consulted thier oracle before the sacrificed inikpi to appease peace for igalas ,after her burial ,fire brokeout from the town ( benin account says the benin warriors littled the town ablaze ) , the benin warriors captured the chief and took him back to benin and took back slaves from the war to benin ....the igala slaves later invented into ths palace the now royal benin dance brought from igala called "ekasa
