oswardic:You can deny your own self all you want. In fact, that’s exactly what you must do. Lol. It’s a sign of conquest. [s]Did the Oba of Benin make a visit to Ile Ife to argue on geology? Make Una de type with sense small small?[/s]What nonsense is this one typing?? Lol. No one is asking your Ọba to argue, dummy. All your Ọba had to do was to simply tell us his “truth”. He may then later eat back some of his words (like he did at his own party), but they would have been out. Your Ọba came to Ife and could not dare repeat what he supposedly thinks is true. He cowered. Lol. Historians have said the Kaladerhan tale is fraudulen, your Ọba too apparently knows it’s fraudulent. [s]I do hope you know Ooni requested that they visited the Orun Oba Ado not at the request of the Oba of Benin... Political moves lol ..[/s]Lol. No. I actually know that the Ooni didn’t need your king’s permission before your king knows to call at the Orun-Ọba-Ado burial site. Even if the Ooni had truly randomly brought that up in the middle of their conversation that day, your king still didn’t have to go; but he did as the TV news report have stated in clear terms. Moreover, the issue is not even about who brought it up, when it was brought up, why did he agree, etc. No that’s not the issue. The actual issue is about what he actually agreed to go there to do. The TV news report state in clear terms that he (your king) went there to pay homage to Benin kings buried there. And that’s not the only site your king visited. He also was at the Oranmiyan grove. We know exactly what was done to him there. It’s an open secret. [s]A typical you, always changing people's words to suite your brainless ego.. I wrote two different comments on two different responses you gave, and you connoted all to one? Wisdom indeed is a scarce commodity.. [/s] You’re used to being cunning, obviously because you are surrounded in Benin by insanely moronic dullards who are very easy to trick. You’re about to learn a big lesson. Fasten your seat belt. Now, you’re claiming here that your say it to his face comment was a reply to my dared not mention it comment. Lol. Whereas, the actual reality is the reverse of what you are fraudulently claiming here: (1) You wrote at 3:57pm On Feb 03 that “it was said to your Ooni's face” (2) I replied at 4:06pm On Feb 03 that your Ọba “dared not mention the Ekaladerhan fraud” at the Ooni’s palace. In other words, you didn’t reply with say it to his face to my dared not mention it comment. Rather, it was I who replied with my dared not mention it comment to your say it to his face comment. You have just been exposed again for the umpteenth time as a delusional fraudulent nincompoop. Having now exposed you, it becomes clear that your reason for writing your say it to his face comment is to give the usual dumb Bini insinuation that your Ọba is FeArLeSs, etc. However, such dumb insinuation is rightly debunked when I pointed out his caveat where he noted that his own statement is not necessarily true for others. He knows his boundary, hence he debunked the very insinuation which you (among other slave-subjects of his) wish to push out. He ate back part of his words. [s]Secondly, you talked about the Oba's visit to Ife and how he could not talk about the Ekaladerhan fraud and I told you how can he possibly talk about that when His purpose of visit was to appreciate the Ooni for gracing his coronation just as the Oba did in Sokoto, Warri, etc and you said why didn't he talk about it...[/s]Wrong! You’re giving an excuse/pleading that the reason why your Ọba didn’t talk about Ekaladerhan is because his visit has nothing to do with that. This excuse/pleading doesn’t fly because while he was giving his submission, he brought up the Ife & Benin connection. You get the gist? However, he literally cut out the fraudulent part about Ekaladerhan. Why couldn’t he say his truth? Your Ọba is neither FeArLeSs nor BrAve after-all — contrary to what you (and his other slave-subjects) love to think. Yes, the purpose of your Ọba’s visit was more than appreciation. You heard clearly in that Channels TV report that your Ọba “paid homage” at Ọrun-Ọba-Ado at Ife. Your Ọba din’t pay any such homage when he visited Warri, Sokoto, etc. Or did he? Now that is the key difference between his Ife visit and his other visits. [s]Please, I am absolutely sure I am having a discourse with a pretty young girl who thinks she has read so much and could just vomit some nonsense in exchange for wisdom.[/s]A young girl who brought down decades of Benin lies?? Yup! [s]Go back to bed, maybe your brain might generate little wisdom to survive the day without saying much trash as other days.[/s]You should take your own advice. It is you who need such advice since you’re clearly having sleepless night. Cheers. 11 Likes 1 Share |

oswardic:Thanks for admitting that your Ọba ate back his words at his own party. Thanks also for realizing that your Oba dared not say that nonsense at the Ooni’s palace. In sum, I am glad that historical scholarship exposed that nonsense to be a fraud. Notice how you’ve now made a sharp 180o about turn. You went from: (1) Omonoba said it to Ooni’s face, and Ooni couldn’t do nothing at the party. Haha. And now to: (2) Omonoba only ate back his words at his own party because Omonoba doesn’t want trouble. Only b*st*rds or sl*ves move how you’ve just moved. And I’m not surprised. A typical Bini person will continue to insist that white is black unless one repeatedly knocks their dry skull to the point where their brain resets & they confess that it is indeed white.

oswardic:Why did you stop using your UGBE account lately? I noticed you stopped. What happed to you?? (1) Anyway, thanks for the video — I have replied you in my foregoing comment wherein I also embedded a video of your Oba at the Ife palace showing how your Oba gave up the Ekaladerhan fraud. (2) Moreover, during that same visit of your Oba to his ancestral source, i.e. Ife, your Oba completed his rite of passage to kingship — one of which involves that he pays homage at the Orun-Oba-Ado (Heaven of Benin King) burial site, among others. The following is a Channels TV report relevant to this statement. Time-stamp 0:22 to 0:28. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZhU2AmpvJk We know your Oba paid courtesy visit to other kings in the country too — such as: the Sultan of Sokoto. But did your Oba pay homage to previous Benin king burial site in Sokoto and elsewhere? Of course not. There are no such burial site of Benin kings there. It’s present only in Ife, and your Oba duly paid homage to where homage is due. Now that’s the key difference between his Ife visit and his other visits. Capeesh? Channels TV is not wicked, demonic, & evil, because I know for sure that’s the next superficial go-to on your mind courtesy of your paranoid personality disorder. Channels is an Edo-owned organization if that helps to deal with your paranoia delusions. (3) Thank God Benin was accessible to the Portuguese in the 1400s. Otherwise, we may not have known that Benin kings are subordinate & inferior to an overlord outside Benin whose ‘name’ is spelt in the Portuguese writings as “Hooguanee”, “Ogane”, and whom scholars have found to be non other than the Ọɣọnẹ of Ifẹ. Benin know your small place. Cheers Cc: SirNewtonNG 11 Likes 1 Share |

oswardic:Thanks subject for fetching me this video which I had talked about earlier. Your Ọba mentioned the Ekeladerhan fraud at his ow coronation party. Why exactly would you assume that the Ooni would request (or even be given) a platform to debunk whatever your Oba just said at his party? Anyway, my earlier point is that your Oba knows that whatever he is saying at that party is NOT meant to be completely true and binding for his Yorùbá overlords. As I noted earlier, your Oba ate it back by immediatel noting that if he (your Oba) insist that the Ekaladerha fraud is an absolute truth, then that would mean that he (your Oba) is already passing his boundary. Your Oba’s precise words (from time-stamp 0:53) goe thus: “But it is not our place to force this recognition to other outside our boundaries”. In other words, your Oba knows that this fraud is not defensible—especially since it has been dragged in the mud by submission of historical scholarship. Your Oba ate his words up at his own party right there. Regarding your Oba’s homage visit to the palace of Hi Imperial Majesty — the Ọɣọni of Ifẹ, Ọba Adeyeye: Your Ọba was given an opportunity to say something about the connection between father-Ifẹ & son-Benin, many gullible Binis present would have expected him to repeat the Ekaladerhan fraud. Of course he (your Oba) knew better. He knew never to make such costly mistake. He gave his submission and literally “cut out” and swallowed the aspect of the Ekaladerhan fraud. He knew not to peddle a lie at his overlord’s palace. He (your Oba) dared not. Watch the video below for yourself — particularly from time-stamp 13:00 to 13:50 and notice how your Oba skillfully cut out the Ekalderhan part. He would have received the curses of his life if he didn’t cut it out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXvXupQwaz0 Summary: (1) Your Oba mentioned the Ekaladerhan fraud at his own party—and he immediately ate it back right then and there. Thanks for providing the video for this. (2) Your Oba mentioned the Ife & Benin connection at his master’s Ife palace— and your Oba dared not bring up the Ekeladerhan fraud. He literally cut it out.

oswardic:Well, you stupidly thought the Ooni would argue at his son’s (your Oba’s) party. Anyway, my point is that your Oba ate his words (not at the Ooni’s palace, but) at his (your Oba’s) own party when he (your Oba) clarified that whatever he (your Oba) is saying is NOT meant to be a universal truth for his Yorùbá overlords particularly. As regards your Oba’s visit to the Ooni’s palace, your Oba didn’t even mention the Ekalderhan nonsense at all — he dared not. The issue of him (your Oba) eating back his words did not arise this time around (like at his party) because he was too scared to even bring up the Ekaladerhan nonsense. He (your Oba) simply stopped at the fact that an Ife prince (Oranmiyan) was the first Oba of Benin. Kisses 11 Likes 1 Share |

oswardic:No, your Ọba immediately clarified by admitting that he (as a Bini king) dare not insist to his Yorùbá lords [i.e. Ooni, et al.] that what he (the Bini king) is saying is necessarily true. In other words, your Oba ate his words right there & then indicating that he’s only regurgitating the 1970s fraud pioneered by his late father. In any case, it was your Ọba’s coronation party and as such attendants must allow him have his time to make his submission. No the program didn’t plan to have a debate. If you really thought the Ooni would jump on stage & drag the microphone from his son even after the son had eaten his own words; then you have to think one more time. Plus the Ooni didn’t come with his mic. Or did he? This is the dumbest thing I’ve heard. Guess what!? It got worse when your Ọba came to Ife. He dared not mention the Ekaladerhan fraud in that palace — his need to eat his own words didn’t even arise this time around as he he couldn’t even dare utter the Ekaladerhan fraud it out of his mouth.

oswardic:(1) I apologize on behalf of the house of Oduduwa at Ile-Ife for the conquest & colonization of your archaic ancestors since c-1000 CE till date and forever. Now to the matter: Even going by Benin sources (the earliest indigenous Benin sources on the subject for that matter), says the Ogiso chiefdom of “Benin” was sent from Ife to be for your backward daddies: Many years ago, Oduduwa of Ile-Ife sent a son — who took the title of Ogiso — with a large retinue from Ife to found a kingdom in this part of the world. ~ Chief Obakhavbaye of Benin, J. U. Egharevba, “A Short History of Benin,” (1936), p. 7. Facts & early sources beat emotions & new revisions. Oduduwa isn’t your last Ogiso’s son, you jokers. He is an Ife ruler whose son birthed your Ogiso chiefdom. Did I mention that even as at the late 1890s and early 1900s your daddies and mommies were still roaming naked at Benin waiting to be offered as votives to the deities of Yorùbá people of Ife?? (2) Your opinion of others is not necessarily binding on them, I hope you know that. But your opinion of your own self is at least binding on you. As such, we take it that you’re a deluded nincompoop with a misplaced priority in life. Yes you agree. (3) List their names? Lol. Please tell me Pa Idu’s dad’s name. As if the word “Pa” is even a Bini word. LMAO. In any case, people are required to provide evidence only for claims they make. I can’t remember claiming to have the names handy. I actually never even made any claim about the names to begin with. Instead, my claim is simply that there were about 97 kings in Ife, and the evidence for this claim of mine is simply the Ife tradition which says that as recorded in historical works —whether collected by a dark-skinned historian or a light-skinned historian. Ancient Ife’s oral annotated king-list indicates 97 kings thus making Ife’s current monarch the leader of one of the three earliest-founded surviving dynasties in the world alongside Japan and Rajasthan. ~ S. P. Blier, “Art and Risk in Ancient Yoruba,” (2015), p. 36. (4) The following statement is the wHiTE mAn’s view of your Benin in comparison with some Yorùbá towns. As a town, Benin was inconsiderable compared with Ibadan, Iseyhin, Shaki, Modakeke, and Abeokuta. ~ Cyril. Punch’s Journal, (1889); cited in H. Ling. Roth (1903), p.vii. You may also refer the old European map I’d attached earlier in one of my preceding comments and see the comments I gave in that regards. (5) Shebi you know that if what you’re defending is the truth you wouldn’t have the need to tell this lie. In other words, show us where I informed you that the Ogisos were mere fairytales/never existed. Otherwise, you remain my slave — no freedom for you. You’re clearly confusing me with some of ya brothers who felt more inferior upon realizing that even Ogiso chiefdom was established in “Benin” by Ile-Ife. (6) Pre-Oduduwa Ife “uncivilized”? LMAO! A city that had a pre-Oduduwa embankment?? A city that have’d monarchy centuries before the first “monarchy” would be established for Benin by same Ife?? A city that was working out iron in the pre-Oduduwa era?? Etc. To think that assumption is even coming from you — you whose daddies and mommies were not allowed to use clothes even in as recent as the late-1890s. ——— What then did Oduduwa do in Ife?? He migrated from Oke-Ọra (as tradition shows) to the Ife bowl, and then moved later to unify the distinct Ife kingdoms into one kingdom under one single overarching political rule. (7) Well, I didn’t ask you to flood here with tears as you have now done here. Fight your inner demons alone without having to involve me. Nobody made a claim about names of 97 kings and as such no one has any burden of listing names for you. The specific claim is that there were 97 kings, and the evidence for that has been cited above already. However, here are some of the names off the top of my head (even though I didn’t have to mention one): Ọbatala, Ọbalufẹ, Ọbameri, Onipetu, Ọbaloran Ọbawinrin, Fegun, Ọbadio, Ọbalaaye, Ọbaluru, Apata, Ọbalayan, Ọbalejugbe, Ọbariyuin, Ọbalesun, Ọbarena, Ọbajio, Ọbalale, Ọbalase, Ọranfẹ, Elesije, Yemo, et al. Note that all these kings reigned prior to Oduduwa, & Oduduwa founded the Ogiso chiefdom via a son. Now think deeply about that. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that you & your people were already disgraced as per this “Ọba” thing when it was demonstrated incontrovertibly that Ọba was a concept introduced to Benin from the language of the Yoruba people. See the link below for a gentle reminder on that: https://www.nairaland.com/6234931/why-ikwerres-not-igbo-logic/15#96513655 Cheers. Cc: SirNewtonNG 19 Likes 4 Shares |

Jameseddi1:[/s] (1) According to the 1969 report of the archaeological survey of Ife by P. Ozanne: Ife was 1st inhabited since some very distant antiquity and had many autonomous settlements by the fourth century BCE. (2) King Oduduwa is from Oke-Ọra — one of the Late Stone Age hilly settlements surrounding the Ife bowl. (2) Before Oduduwa’s reign in Ile-Ife, the city has had about 97 Ọbas (kings) from the provinces in Ife. (3) From Oduduwa’s time, kings/chiefs were dispersed to other lands — including some non-Yorùbá lands. (4) The Ogiso chiefdom of ‘Benin’ had not yet begun at the time, when Ife has already had about 97 Ọbas. (5) The first Ogiso at ‘Benin’ was sent from Ife during the King Oduduwa’s era. (6) The third Ogiso at ‘Benin’ was the last one sent from Ife, and he returned to Ife. (7) The 3rd Ogiso returned back home to Ife when Ife became quite convinced that the native Binis have now been brushed up enough to continue by themselves. (8 ) The Ogiso chiefdom later collapsed. The Bini elders now sent to Ife again for a capable ruler. (9) One of Oduduwa’s youngest grandsons was sent to Benin for the task — a permanent rulership now. (10) He was soon disgusted by their archaicness that he left in disgust. (11) He, however, left a strict order that his baby from one of their daughters be made their king when he is of age — Ife courtiers to be sent to assist the govt. (12) At this time, he was already king elsewhere — at a Yorùbá town, viz. Ọyọ-Ile. (13) Later on, his child at Benin was installed as king of Benin, and was styled with the title “Ọmọnọba” which literally means: “The Child King”. PS: The European map attached below was created in the year 1513. It depicts the phrase “Realm of Ọɣọnẹ” thus indicating the only relevant kingdom in the “Nigeria” region. This is not explainable as mere acquaintance—as they (these Europeans) had no trade/any relations with this Ọɣọni’s kingdom a the time being far from the coast in the deeply forested interior. The only valid explanation is, therefore, of a firsthand received information from the natives near the coast (i.e. Binis, Ijebus, et al.) who all admit to the seniority, superiority, precedence of this kingdom of the Ọɣọni [Ooni] at the time.

The recent Benin lie that Oduduwa is son of a certain Ogiso has been laughed at and debunked world-wide by historians of African history. It has been rightly categorized as a deliberately false account invented recently by certain amateurs who suffered from a strong grip of inferiority complex. The older traditions of Benin collected since the 1800s also debunk this recent amateur invention. Jameseddi1:Oduduwa is from Oke-Ọra — an LSA hilly settlement around Ile-Ife in the Iloromu axis. Before Oduduwa’s reign, Ife has had about 97 kings. From Oduduwa’s time, chiefs & kings were dispersed to other lands — including some non-Yorùbá lands. The Ogisos whom you talked about didn’t feature at Benin until when Oduduwa sent the first one there. The third Ogiso at Benin became the last Ogiso from the Ife Yorùbá line. He returned to Ife when it was quite clear that Benin have now been brushed up enough to continue. The Ogiso chiefdom later collapse. The Bini elders now sent to Ife again for a capable ruler. One of the youngest grandons of Oduduwa was sent to Benin for the task of founding a more permanent rulership for the backward natives of Benin. He was soon disgusted by their backwardness that he left with disgust — but after having impregnated one of their daughters. He gave a standing order that the unborn child should be made king when he becomes of age. He proceeded to become king at Oyo while his child was unborn/toddler. The child was later installed as Omonoba — meaning king’s child — which becomes the traditional official title of Benin kings. No wonder why Omonoba Eweka-2 ranked Ooni 1st before Alaafin, then before himself (Eweka-2). Benin later grew centuries later and managed to bring neighboring Edoid towns under its leadership. It had relationship with some Ondo/Ekiti town/village but never ruled over them according to these places. At Lagos (Eko precisely), the tradition is clear that the progenitor of the dynasty is a Yorùbá who was helped by a Benin king, and showed appreciation as agreed. No EUrOpEaN eyewitness who visited Benin called it an empire. None. Cheers. Cc: christistruth01, SirNewtonNG, nisai. You Benin dullards keep regurgitating the very thing over which you’ve been disgraced before. Hoping we would all have forgotten or what exactly? The fact that the name of a place is written on a map does not mean the place is an an empire. You must be specially stupid to even think like that. By your dullard logic, you may want to argue that the place called Guinea was once an empire sometime in the past going by the map below in my attachment. Or that Guinean conquered, owned, & ruled your own Benin kingdom in the past. Now, that’s exactly how stupid you sound. 20 Likes 2 Shares
