TAO11:


Mrs fool, why are you agitated that your lies are being exposed? You became so insecure that you had to beg Nairalanders not to read my comment.

I feel your pain.

Having said that, I would have thought that even as a bald, sad, dumb, fugly, Bini pathological liar; you should still be able to imagine that I could possibly engage experts to prepare a translating of any document (much less this less-than-two page statements) from any language into any language.

In fact, my translation of those statements pages was from two different bilingual French-English speakers who worked independently. Yes, I did that intentionally for control purposes.

Moving on to your fraudulent translation of the actual statements in question here, the original reads as follows:

“le capitaine Horseley nous l’a appelée Eco, et c’est ainsi que la désignent les Yébous”.

And your fraudulent translation (with which you seek to veil an important and salient point) goes as follows:

"Captain Horseley called it Eco, and that is how the yebous refer to it"

In order to perpetuate your fraud, you shied away from giving the faithful contextual translation of the key word “désignent“.

You’re well aware that giving such faithful translation of this particular word will shatter your age-long Benin lies.

In other words, it would become plain to all and sundry that it was the Ijebus (not the Binis) who actually named Lagos as “Èkó”.

To veil this salient information, you rendered your translation of this specific statement as vaguely as you possible can.

No! One does not have to be a Professor of French or English or both before realizing that the faithful translation of this statement [considering the key French word “désignent”] is as follows:

“Captain Horseley rendered it as Eco, and that is how it was designated by the Yébous”.

Folks, notice that the key base-word here, is the word “designate”. Our fraudulent bald Bini friend is trying his level best to veil this salient point.

Yes, the Ijebus are the ones who “designated” [not merely “refer to”] the island as “Èkó”.

I pledge to continue to rubbish you all over Nairaland. See attached.

Not universe benin is the owner of Yorubas

Ofemannnu:

So 'designent' means 'refer'?

Westtimeline:
See this one that doesn't know the first king of Benin is Eweka, the son of oranmiyan

forgiveness:


Woah! I never knew Ijebus name it Eko. Revelation. Please, keep it coming.

Ofemannnu:
The only thing that is obvious here is that Lagos belongs to the Awori....Yorubas from Ife....but Benin came along and occupied the Island,becoming the ruler but not owning the land,reason they could not sell any land.
Later,the real owners, who are Yorubas,eventually took over their God given space which is Lagos.


And the Yorubas live happily ever after..

But some people continue to wail sadly ever after..

You whom I personnally caught lying about this book which i posted. You are calling me liar. Well reverse psychology I guess.
Let me explain to you how dumb you are: the caption which you are using is not even complete. You have sentence which are only half in the caption.
You would not know that because you don't speak french. That is the reason you always see me posting more than what you posted.
What you posted is also a caption by me, i did so because I was only trying to focus on one single thing: "Lagos belongs to Benin"

gregyboy:



You pushed us into edo abi the British


Hahahaha

Gen Ogendegbe of Ekitiparapo Army entered into Benin to take it.

It was the desperate pleading and appeasement of Ogendegbe by the Oba of Benin that stopped Ogendegbe and the Ekitiparapo Army from taking over Benin.
