Keraxes: Oyo states is a big for nothing state just like their fellow wannabe hausa state, Yen yen.. Oyo state is bigger than edo state, the Population is yen yen, until i showed you the state is a big for nothing state Mugu.... Funny thing in oyo state is is that the state rapidly being eating by islam daily , d religion is currently eating everywhere in d state, all in a bid for them to be like their masters from the north Having a discussion with you is repulsive, you fucking Muslims need to be recovert the religion is a plague..... We dont want it in Southern nigeria If not for the yoruba Christians who still see you guys as brothers, on a norms you guys have no business with the southerners, you all belong to North just like kwara and kogi Foolish dirty hausa-yoruba people You guys are the sellout, we are having in Southern nigeria, the igbos were right, you all need to be reconverted or grouped alongside with the north we need no Muslim in d south here..... Maybe henceforth before i have a discussion with a Yoruba person, i will first ask if he or she is a muslim, and if yes, there be no discussion from me..... Maybe i will have to take a pictures of your yoruba muslim sisters and brothers in idp camps in benin, if dem nor tell you say dem b yorubas u will easily mistake them as hausas or fulanis In as much i dont fancy the north i dont fancy any yoruba muslim too, you all are one, you all need to be reconverted, cowards Dirty people 1 Like |

Sobasojek: My prove 1) if Benin spoke Yoruba as a language Benin chiefs and kings would still be having Yoruba names if the language happened to have died Since those names and titles in the Benin palace Are ancestral, but none of this ancestral names and titles are yoruba but Benin 2) Samuel Johnson made mention that Benin defeated the oyo army from ekiti,he never mentioned oyo ruling Benin despite also mentioning Benin supplied various Yoruba guns in d Yoruba war Lastly if I have to bring a screenshot on the number 2, promise to give me my money If you need the screenshot let me know I want to disgrace you in front of the born and the unborn But in order to do this you there must be an appetite to keep it going if you’re ready let’s set 5k , 2 Likes |

gregyboy: Sobasojek: BOTH DAHOMEY AND BENIN , OYO RULED OVER. ""This King ( Alaafin Ojigi) in order to show his undisputed sovereignty over the whole of the Yoruba country, including Benin, sent out a large expedition which struck the Niger in the north, near the Ibaribas, (Niger State) and coasted along the right bank until they arrived at the coast and returned to Oyo by the Popo country (Dahomey). Great exploits were reported of the leaders."" Actually Oyo lost in battle to the Fulani but Ibadan who are ethnic Oyos won the War.

Sobasojek: So an Oyo man who happens to be a historian is lying but while u that relies on "my Papa tell me" is somehow correct... Oyo has never lost any battle but they were defeated by the Fulani, Dahomey who brought the Empire down... Is there another definition of losing a battle? Cc: gregyboy 3 Likes

Etinosa1234:Oyo ruled over Benin, Dahomey and it never lost any war. Dahomey is too small to bring Oyo down okay and Oyo through Ibadan warriors killed so many fulanis in osogbo in 1840 Check above for the article from Christistruth00 |

Sobasojek: Let me shock you even more: Benin, Dahomey , even Ashanti and the Ga of Ghana paid tribute to the Alaafin of Oyo in the days of Basorun Gaha That partly explains how and why Basorun Gaha the Prime Minister became such an arrogant king maker ,king destroyer and tyrant . Basorun Gaha may be the reason why Yoruba's hate but can wait patiently to outmanoeuvre despotic rulers. It cost 4 Alaafins their lives before the 5th Alaafin Abiodun outsmarted him and finally killed him burning. him to ashes. He controlled all the territory from the West Bank of River Niger all the way to and including the Ashanti of Ghana and all the Coastline . The territory was bounded in the North by the River Niger of the Bariba Country (Niger State)

I would love you send him to go and read his history books and also learn how to debate issues, he clearly shows he was a guest before and he had to signin after seeing benin people uselessing his yoruba brothers, and he rushed to help thinking the rest will come out, He sacrificed his home town, oyo state to be humiliated that was is biggest mistake i made him regret it, Lol, the newbie on the block, he should start reading and stop talking ignorantly and sacrificing is state for bashing Goodluck to him tho, the road he threads have been walked by many against the benins and they all failed and got consume by self hate and reproach i hope he doesn't get to that stage of no return, Etinosa1234 warn him The screenshot clear 1 Like
