Please watch this vide and hear the Oba of Benin allude to the fact that he is a direct descendant of Oranmiyan and Oduduwa, and stop arguing blindly.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPFuOlZSfM4

Understanding is your problem. Don't hear a video to argue. Understand the video first so you don't appear as an ignorant fellow lacking understanding.

From the video, the Oba said he is a direct descendant of Izeduwa (Oduduwa). Who is Oduduwa?

Oduduwa was a crown Benin Prince (during the Ogiso era). His original name was Ekaladeran. He went on exile in Ile-Ife (around the end of the Ogiso dynasty) where he called himself "Izoduwa" (meaning I have chosen the path of prosperity) which the yorubas corrupted to Idoduwa.

In essence, Izoduwa, a crown Benin prince (which the yorubas later changed to Oduduwa), was the one that established the Ile-Ife dynasty where almost all yorubas draw heritage from.

And in the video, the Oba of Benin said he can't force this truth to people outside his shores (as everyone can believe what they want to believe)

You may also want to know how Lagos was founded and how it got to be named "Eko" (a Benin word for "war camp" or just "camp"wink.

All these shows how desperate you thieves want to have our oil.

It's sad when a young man still keep shouting about our oil! Unbelievably sad. The said oil that the Northerners are enjoying more than your generation combined. The same oil you don't have access to and hasn't better your lot and may never before it dries up. But your hatred is so loud that you lost common sense.

Mind you, the world is moving away from oil. Renewable energies are taking over and very soon your oil will be useless. The dumbest part of you don't even remember that oil is not forever, they will dry up one day.

on a traditional note

what is the difference between Edo and Bini?

When you use the word Edo, in most cases you're referring to the language, land and culture of that geographical place.
When you use the word Bini, you're most likely referring to those in Benin City.
Those who left Benin after one despotic Oba started his reign are still Edo people.

Madam, what both Yorubas and Edos agree on is that - Oranmiyan is a prince from Ife who went to Benin to establish the current Obaship dynasty. He was not even Oduduwa's direct son but his grandson.

Let's stick to that... smiley
nope oranmiyan father is ozoduwa an edo man , and we all know you paternal side determines your tribe but l would like to think of it as a a inter marriage of ozoduwa to a Yoruba woman.talking about the obaship dynasty it was oranmiyan son that established that when he went to Benin to rule on behalf of his father, his son was birthed to him by an Edo woman and born dumb. it was after his father left that he spoke and became the crowned prince..

Ekaladeran did not get to ile Ife and non of direct son of oduduwa became king in Benin.
The purported Ekaladeran's family in Benin I.e The Ogiso descendants have said Ekaladeran story was fabricated. The Yoruba's invasions of Benin happened before Izoduwa. Oranmiyan ( Yoruba warrior totally not related to the Edos)

The early Benin were Originally Yorubas unlike the mixed and adultrated ones of these days.

Everywhere they migrated to, they introduced Yoruba's culture there eg Itsekiris.

Lol. Which Ekaladeran family in Benin? Who are the Ogiso descendants? Name one Ogiso descendant. Which Ogiso descendant said the Ekaladeran story was fabricated? Oga stop clowning.

The Benin Kingdom is the oldest Kingdom in Nigeria. At the time Yoruba kingdoms were founded, the Benin Kingdom had already existed way before then. So, between an old existing kingdom and newly founded recent kingdoms, who should influence who?

The yorubas invaded Benin Kingdom? Lol. It was the Benins that invaded Yoruba land and set up the present day Eko (Lagos). The only people that invaded the Benin Kingdom were the British. It was only the British army that invaded the Benin Kingdom.

You can be chest beating your chest. The first person to mention Benin was a Yoruba Ife prince that renamed Igodomigodo town to a Yoruba name. Ife was already in existence then. Our Oranmiyan later returned to Ife to become king and replaced himself with Eweka his son in Benin.
Have told you the Original Binis were Yorubas or South westerners not the Edos or Igodomigodo people and they extended the kingdom to Eko, Itsekiris and other places. 70% of Lagos is not in control of Oba of Lagos because we have many other Yoruba Obas there that all originated from Ife kingdom just like the first Oba of Benin.

Ogiemien family already told the Edo people that the last Ogiso Owodo never had a son.
Oranmiyan led the war in Ife to defeat the last Ogiso.

Oba of Lagos is Yoruba in all ramifications.

Oga stop saying what you don't know. Stop lying about Ogiemen family, Ogiso, Ekaladeran.

The Benins said Oduduwa was a Benin Prince who Left Benin to Establish Ile-Ife. The Yorubas have their own story. Believe what you want to believe while Benin people believe what they want to believe.

As for Lagos, you should ask yourself why previous Kings of Lagos where buried in Benin.

Benin : yes
Yoruba: yes
did oranmiyan introduced obaship to Edo people?
Yoruba: yes
Benin: yes( before), no( our eyes are open now,it pains us that Yoruba's can boast that our kingship system is inferior to theirs, we would not accept,we would rather twist history or just say oduduwa is from Edo, in this way they won't be able to boast over us)
is ekarledan oduduwa?
Yoruba; No
Benin: No( before) yes( ekarledan story can be used to achieve success in twisting history, since Yoruba are not certain where oduduwa came from, ekarledan story would fill that vacuum)
Did Benin buried the head of their kings in ife?
Yoruba: yes
Benin: yes
was Edo monarchical system influenced by Yoruba?
Yoruba: yes
Benin: yes
did knowledge of benin bronze casting came from ife?
Yoruba: yes
Benin: yes
Europeans: yes.
What was the original name for Benin?
Yoruba: Ile ibinu
itsekiri: ubini.
fact: Benin is introduced by the Portuguese,not an indigenous name
where is the origin of the following Edo deities, olokun,Ogun, aiyelala,esango
Yoruba: from our pantheon

according to your proposition, Benin borrowed some names from their Yoruba neighbours and even intermarried with them, here is the fact,great culture impacts the weaker,it seems Yoruba culture has given the Edo culture an uppercut at that corner,because Edo had seen and experienced the great culture and beauty of the omoluabis,no man takes for himself a wife except the woman is great in beauty and in character, but the last time I checked, you gregyboy, insulted the beauty of Yoruba women and insulted their pride,deduction two from your preposition, some Bini families migrated back to Bini with their Yoruba partners,here is the fact,those Yoruba carries their gene with them and transfer it to their offspring, never minding whether, the father or the mother is Yoruba, the offspring carries the blood of oduduwa, which probably means you may be a probable carrier of these gene,but I am sure you are not,you are too dumb and crude, you are not worthy to be call the son of oduduwa, now the mixing of Yoruba and Edo culture is what the Op was trying to analyse before your tribal ego set in,but at least,thank God that you are learning how to accept things as they are now.
