Please madam stop distorting history, the Benins and Yorubas have no similarities, the only connections between the two tribes is Ododuwa/Ekalanderan who was a Benin Prince that was banished from Igodomigodo/Bini that later send his grandson Oranmiyan to establish the Benin second dynasty kingship.
Ogiemen was never an Oba, Ogiemen was ordinary a position holder of Benin throne before the arrival of Oranmiyan.
The last Ogiso was Owodo who was the father of Ododuwa/Ekalanderan.
If I may ask,why are Yorubas alway narrate Bini history without visiting Benin kingdom for accurate historical information.
Please Yoruba professor stop misleading people with your fake history of people you don't know.
Enough is a Enough.
Oduduwa is a deity that is only worship by Benin and ado ekiti people.any other story or history about oduduwa is a tale by moon light
This lady is actually a grand daughter of Oba Akenzua 2nd.
I would say they are historically related with some degree of cross assimilations. what the Benin man calls 'pataki' for instance coincides with what the yoruba call 'pataki'. In those days as today economy, survival and security require interdependence a lot of times and history should be understood with these perspectives in mind.
@@mrkay24radio No, no, nope!
Mind u madam Ogiso dynasty did not end in ogiamie bcos ogiamie who is Evian son was never a king. It ended in ogiso owodo and oba dynasty did not end in oba ovoramwen nogbaisi. Pls stop saying wat u don’t know bcos d oba dynasty is still going on in which oba ewuare d 2 is d current king.
She so fake....don't bother she likes misinformation. Prof. that can do simple research on such a simple thing.
Fake stories always.....
The woman na yariba
Sometimes I get confused where they get their history from 🤔 I don't know who told her the oba dynasty ended at the era of oba Ovonramwen if so what dynasty do we have now as Oba Ewuare? Just nonsense story.
😂😂 even me as an Ondo man from Okitpupa knows this.
So the benin people have no one to choose from their land but rather decide to go and choose someone strange from another land to come and be their king. It makes no single sense. Benins and Yorubas are totally two different people, different resemblance, different languages, different names, different cultures, different traditions, traditional foods are different and different dressings. Both history are totally different. Nothing in common at all and there are no similarities among them. So where is the similarities coming from? Corrections: The benin ancestor didn't come from the sky with a chain, unlike the Yorubas who claimed that their ancestor came down from the sky with a chain, (myth story). Even a two year old child will not believe such story. The history of the benin people is the Bible. Please this argument has to completely stop.
Then tell us about the Ogiso the rulers of the sky before the arrival of Oba dynasty..where did the ogiso come from??
@@sammyyounglopez296 Na waooo, this is by false relationship! I don't have any explanation to you Sir, I'm tired of explaining. Benin people said that they are not related to you people, so be it. Is not by false to be related to a tribe. I understand that the binis have a very unique and beautiful history, culture and tradition that some tribes want to part take, I understand that. But please let's stop arguing who came from who. If it was true that they were related, that was bygone. Let everyone live in peace.
@@zion-985 can you even hear yourself.. am an Edo man..what do you mean by "by force relationship".you said in your write up that bini ancestors did not come from the sky..that's why asked you about the ogisos..where did they come from...we ones existed as Idu people, from there we became Igodomigodo and from Igodomigodo we are no Edo the capital being Benin... the question you should ask yourself is that there is always a beginning...which kingdom is the first kingdom in this world and who is the first king in this world..if you have answer to that question then you will know who bini people really are...and remember oduduwa is not a yoruba man but where did he really came from.. Oduduwa is the real connection between the yorubas and binis not oromiyan..I rest my case..
I think it’s best for Next time, you consult an Bini Historian before creating content about the Bini Kingdom, soo you don’t transmit errors like you did on this video.
Thank You for your true statement. She's paid by some idiots to spread this falsification/ lies.
The binis wouldn't have asked for a king from a little efi if there were not already connections between the prince of efi and the binis. Remember the binis were in complete control of the south.
Go find out your history properly. Great igodomigodo.
Misinformation by yoruba people about edo people will never stop, even this old woman is telling lying for her children to adopt
The first king is ogiso igodo and the last king is owodo, they where 31kings, ogiamen was an administrator appointee not king
Please say what you know don't say what you did know
Nowadays everybody is a historian please stop saying what you don't know.
Madam, I can see how hard you're trying to repair the damaged you've made against Benin history. What is hard to just say the "Benin Obas prohibited 🚫 the sale of slaves in all her territory"? We don't need you to say it on your platform, there are thousands of books all over the world that wrote about the greatness of Benin empire. You're only tarnishing your integrity.
Not ubinu, UBINI means land of heavenly peagently, orominyan the son of Oduduwa who the benin people of that era knew as ekaladeran izoduwa their self exile Prince who later became a ruler in ile ife the benin people recognise Oduduwa and his origin. The title of Oduduwa in ile ife is Ague oghene a benin word
Awesome
What kind of story are you telling,
Very wrong story line, benin is a great empire then...you people should stop this.
The barn ish prince in benin kingdom went to ife and was later beg to come back to rule benin when things went sour...he was too old to come home , he sent his son to rule because kingship in benin is hereditary.
Not happy with this content, distortion of historical facts is a slap, of what significance was Ife at that time that could prompt the binis to ask for a savior from Ife, you never mentioned the exiled prince who went to Ife which of course later became that connection. Please correct the distorted facts in this episode.
Oduduwa is from Benin just like Obama of America and you can talk about Obama son without talk about his father Obama from Kenyan citizen so Oduduwa is Benin Prince whom wented to ile Ife the son of Ogiso Owodo one of earlier KING of Great Benin know as today because no one can cover truth ❤no matter the word 🌎 may be.
To the East the Benin empire expanded beyond the NIger delta to as far as present day Onitsha. Onitsha actually means 'ono chie'' meaning a place occupied. Occupied by the then Benin Oba via one of his princes
Lia lia set of people
Madam you were lazy with your research on this one. You should do better if you intend to be honest with your content.
Madam, you did not mention the peoples that made up the expanded Benin kingdom which are the Edo and part of Igbo people.
Stop madam you knows nothing about what you are saying
To me bini and Yoruba are the same thing no different
Please stop spreading information that is not correct. Get your facts right before uploading it in TH-cam ok. We the Benin know our history
What's this old woman saying 🤔 please say what you no, besides you can't teach us our history
Thank you, my sister! They will explain tire!
Sentiments are making most people comment on this documentary. I believe she must have done some research. Also I do see some similarities like the deity Ogun that both sides worshipped in the traditional religions. There is definitely some kind of connection between these two kingdoms
Oh because Ogun is practiced on both sides, she must have done some research! Your mumu nor too much? Who started it, and why, is the question, mumu, ozuo!!!
she is basically clueless or opinionated. she should have asked the expert, EDO is not yoruba, narrating history like folklore.
Awoooh, sister don hit hard here with a single liner oooo!
Madam are you talking about Benin history or you are talking about ife? The Benin history must be told the way it is please and stop mixing it up with Yoruba. We are not yariba. We know where we are from which is Egypt we're not from Saudi Mecca. Please be advised
It shall never be well with those poeple,may the nature destroy them and their Empire.
Which people?
Which people??
@@Mkym365 Good question oooo!
please madam stop spreading wrong information
Please don't say what you don't know
Edo or benin has never built any empire...stop mixing shit together Dahomey Benin Republic is not edo benin...
go back to school mugu
Where are you from... Benin history was once thought in all Africa School
@@sammyyounglopez296 not only in Africa but in heaven...the only empire in entire is ọyọ empire
@@aminatolagoke9687 can you hear yourself...oromiyan came to Benin before heading to OYO... and Benin was first call igodomigodo.. when Igodomigodo was in existence where was oduduwa or Oyo empire.. na wa for you oh
@@sammyyounglopez296 those are political fables...how come you are still naked in 1914 if the fable is genuine...you still live in savages naked 1914 and you here talking about unreal fables
Ogiso,oduduwa,obatala are all myth just like Zeus and others ancient tales
Not really
@@jn5171 they're big myth
Ogiso was not a myth, its just because the story has gone far too long so people started worshipping it. Ogisos were the rulers of Igodomigodo just as Obas are the rulers of Bini. D only myth is the mysticism that their fan base love to put around them so people can rever them more
@@clarkporter1340there nothing like ogiso dynasty or igodomigodo kingdom in present Benin city, according to archeology the Benin people settled in their present place in 9 century
@@EvwienureEjowokeoghene-uh5iq d Ogisos pre dates d Benin dynasty Benin was a place inside Igodomigodo
Nonsense
