Mraphel: Oba is not a Yoruba word and Yoruba chiefs adopted it in the 1930's. The original owner is the Oba of Benin. Omo n'Oba n'Edo. 6 Likes |

Mraphel:Try and prove things you say rather than just rambling. The name Yoruba is a child of the name yar.iba and they are both new names. Yoruba is a new tribe, the title Olu predates the name Yoruba. African revisionism has to stop now. 3 Likes 1 Share |

The Ikwere are Benin descendants. The south-east people either you like it or not, the Ikwere are Benin descendants and they don't need your permission to be ! You guys have mental problems trying to debate a people's identity with the people. The Igbo are an inland sets of tribes, either you like it or not ! Your brothers in the middle belt whom are in their ancestral land, those ones you don't give a fvck about, because they have no resources, no access to the sea. Instead you are trying to force people whom are not Igbo to call themselves Igbo. Just because they have access to the sea and ressources. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

Sanity33:Prove your Oba title, also who is arguing anything?.....I agree ikwerres are Bini they don't behave anything like Igbos, So they should make their Bini'ness reflect in their names and language, Don't be Bini and you are callin God "chukwu" and Not "Osa" like all Bini people |

I have to remind the southeastern people that a lot of their titles were given to them by the British who were trying to centralise a previously decentralised and disorganized set of tribes called the Igbos. So from that point on, Igbos should stop claiming they own titles ! 2 Likes |

Mraphel: Oba of Benin's origin has absolutely nothing to do with Ife. Benin Oba tradition is way older than Ife. Oba remains a title in Nri till date, and it doesn't mean King (Eze or Igwe). It is perhaps one of the highest titles in Nri territories, beside that of the Eze or Igwe. In Benin, Oba doesn't also mean king. That immediately reveals the Benin obas are not spin-offs from Ife. In Yorubaland, Oba means king, which is probably an idea they got from Benin, thinking it meant king in Bini. Up until a little over a hundred years ago, Eze Nris bestowed the ofo on every Oba of Benin and Attah of Igala. The Ooni of Ife never bestowed anything on the Oba of Benin. The Nris would have been aware of such a thing. Thank God Portuguese explorers made it to Benin during the reigns of Oba Ewuare and Oba Ozolua in the 1400s to confirm the pre-eminence of Nri cultural supremacy of Benin. If those explorers had visited Ife, the Ooni of Ife would have told the Portuguese about the Nri cultural supremacy of Ife at that particular time also. Never mess with Nri. Again, as I wrote sometime ago, when the Nris speak, the true Igbo territories will be known. Pay no attention to some cultural journeymen in Igboland at the moment, like the Aguleris and others. When Nri speaks, Nigeria will know. 12 Likes 1 Share |

IspitonCowards: Well, in case you are unaware, like so many other ignorant africans, Europeans have been in contact with west Africa since the middle ages. They drew maps and wrote texts showing what they saw. Also many precolonial pictures survived with original captions showing the titles of the kings in the pictures. No Yoruba was described as Oba in those texts or pictures. The Oba of Benin was. The title was in a way stolen by the Yoruba in the 1930's. |

IkwerrePikin: You will also have to change Ikwerre town names like RumuIgbo, which clearly means IGBO PEOPLE, and RumuIbekwe which clearly means IBEKWE's children. Or even better, non Igbos from Ikwerreland may have to vacate any Ikwerre town with an Igbo sounding name, as they are clearly Igbo towns. 7 Likes 1 Share |
