I always find it ridiculous when people discuss Benin history and they talk about Yoruba.. Yoruba didn't exist until the 19th century and is only a socio-cultural group of people as distinct from a nation.. The Benin Kingdom, formerly known as Igodomigo has been perhaps the most powerful ethnic nationality in West Africa in the last 1,500 before the arrival of the colonizers. The people who today refer to themselves as Yoruba were then just a collection of villages, clans, and settlements e.g. Ife, Oyo, Ondo, Ekiti, etc..None of these aforementioned villages and settlements had the capacity to withstand Benin in a war. In fact, the very idea of the unity of the Yoruba people started with Oduduwa, a Benin prince, who they now refer to as their progenitor. The shocking thing about the attempt by modern Yoruba historians to rewrite history is the fact that they all recognize the fact that that Oduduwa is no a native of Ife and could not speak or comprehend the local language when he first arrived. The Yoruba have deified oduduwa and claim he is descended from heaven. Others claim he came from the east to Ife.. For anyone to understand the power of Benin and how it became so great, they need to do an in-depth study of the history of Benin..

This is a very important and great thing to do, to unite all Edoid peoples worldwide. Once the people are united it will be discovered that they are more than 20 million of them. The Edoid peoples were the rulers of ancient Egypt, a very intelligent, warrior, determined, hospitable group of people.
Writing is one of the aspects of Great Empires. The reason why ancient Egypt is famous is because its hieroglyphic writing was deciphered to pin point its history. Benin never invented writing. Word by mouth often get distorted by didactic communication sans writing.

Some years back I went to eat at a restaurant in Accra Ghana, I was standing on the way, and the young lady said something in Ga language that made a lot of sense to me as. Yoruba man. She "Ago" in Ga, and I understood it. In Yoruba language, We do say"Yago". When I got back home, I narrated my experience to an old lady, and she told me that the Ga's are from Ile Idea. So I don't understand saying the Ga's are from Bini
The Benin's provided the kingship for the yoruba through Oduduwa, the exiled son of the last Ogiso Iwodo of Igodo Kingdom. So, the link is Oduduwa and that's what will make you understand.
The Ifa oracle said that a person (a stranger) will emerge from the forest, from the east, to rule Ile-Ife. Then, Ife had no king, only a chief Obatala. When the Benin Prince Ekhaladerhan/Izoduwa emerged from the forest, with a nobility carriage with some of his warriors and followers, he met Obatala and the people of Ile-Ife. At that time Oduduwa could NOT speak Yoruba because he was NOT a Yoruba man. Oduduwa and Obatala used divinity to communicate. After a while, the people of Ife were endeared to him causing Obatala to be jealous leading to a fight between Oduduwa and Obatala in which Oduduwa won. At the time Benin was still in turmoil and needed the son of Ogiso Iwodo to sit on the throne. News got to Chief Oliha that Izoduwa was never killed and that he fled westward. A search party was sent which found him at Ile-Ife. The search party asked Oduduwa to return to Benin to sit on the throne of his fathers but he was reluctant due to age etc. They asked that he sent one of his sons and he obliged sending Oramiyan with them to Benin. However when Oramiyan arrived Benin, Chief Ogiamien who was a reagent for the throne refused to give up the throne and the issues continued until Oramiyan left Benin to Oduduwa who told him there shouldn't be two kings in Ife. Therefore Oramiyan left for Oyo to found the Alaafin stool. So, whilst the Yoruba people always existed as a separate people from the Edos, the Edos established kingship for the Yoruba's through Oduduwa.
Why don't the Ga go back to our theocracy and abandon this foolish and divisive chieftaincy system. It will also make us unique, the only tribe with a theocracy in Ghana.
Eighty Nine people had their properties destroyed and sold by the Ohen of okhuoromi Mr ovbokhan igbinovia till date nobody from the palace has called him to answer for his crime and his walking freely. Is it that the argument over artifact is more important than the lives of the poor citizens ?
@nebo tv try to be professional have told you several times your headline is wrong…he went there to try and explain to them the Ga people never said there from Benin kingdom.
Be deceiving your self. The Ga people are celebrating the day they came out from Benin. They are the ones saying that they are Benin's. If you don't know what to say think before you talk.
Yoruba people trying desperately to hijack Benin history.. But I always ask them one question which none of them has been able to answer and I base all my debate with them on that one question and I advise Benin people should do the same. The Yoruba and Ife history has it that Oduduwa is a foreigner in Ife and was unable to speak or comprehend the Ife language when he first arrived Ife..The Yoruba should tell us where Oduduwa is from since they accept he is not a Yoruba man. Some have said Oduduwa is from the sky, some have said he is from the east and recently some of them are saying he is from Saudi Arabia. How ridiculous.. Tell Yoruba people that if they can tell the world where Oduduwa is from, then Benin will accept their version of a fabricated history.

@Sunny Obaz Oduduwa was born and raised in IFE and everything was detailed in IFA Oracle and before he became king in IFE..why are you keep calling Oduduwa when you know that you got the name that you people call him according to your chief?
@Sunny Obaz the Oba of Benin we never say what you are saying go to Portuguese archive and British archive you will find the facts there the greeting of Oba of Benin still refer them back to IFE and some of the chief of Benin.
All these arguement is same worldwide. All tribes and persons are interrelated. Weda oduduwa , ikaladeran, Eweka. The irony of it is oba of Benin and Ooni of Ife even know they are brothers. It is ppl outside that will argue themselves out . It's even funny both look alike. During the coronation of present Oba, he cleared this historical arguement in front of the Ooni and till today, Ooni never countered him. Instead, they visit and hug each other. The throne of every kingdom have a twist. So just enjoy and accept current day dispensation.
Wrong linking of Oduduwa to Benin kingdom, Oduduwa is a native of Ile ife,Oduduwa was one of the 16 leaders in Ile ife during his time,Ifa divinity Oracle confirmed this narrative.,before the ascendance of Oduduwa Ile ife have had 97 kings,so Oduduwa was not the first king of Ile ife. Oduduwa birth in Ile ife and ascension is of 1200 years old and his grandson is Oranmiyan who founded the current benin monarchy.

It could be true, that would happen with external forces bringing in guns, gunpowder to make Bini powerful in the region. When they go to war, they win wars the captured men are the reward of the interfering external forces.

Now you know the real history and try to bend it..the GA people have told you to your eyes 👀 that they are Yoruba and I know you will not show that part that the GA chief told you that they left ILE-IFE long time ago..
I will advise the GA people to throw away the books and never forget who made you to run away from your ancestral home is the Oba remember he's not your ancestor he's from Ile ife
Anywhere he is from, he is ruling now. Take it or leave it. Anybody wey no strong ,dem de overthrow am. It's human living. All kingdoms have story of betrayal, wars and overthrowing. It's allowed. If the obas did it for this long, they are the strongest. Crying won't help. The British throne is like that. Survival of the fittest.
The yorubas have hidden the truth about whom oduduwa was for too long and have told their children wrong history and as such misinterprete the history, oduduwa was a banished prince from benin kingdom who made his way to ile ife and helped them fought against the fulani caliphate and was thereby crowned king in ile ife. His real name was ekaladeran but named himself after izoduwa when he arrived ile ife which they later corrupted to oduduwa, the binis only went in search of their lost prince to come and take over the throne of hia late father on getting to ile ife he had already become king and could mot return to benin kingdom but sent his first son to be the king in benin kingdom, the yorubas should go deep into the history to know the real truth. Oduduwa never descended from heaven he was a personage full blooded human and a crown prince from thw benin kingdom, he was not some sort of spirit from heaven as the yorubas narates.

This is very interesting meeting
This is a very important and great thing to do, to unite all Edoid peoples worldwide. Once the people are united it will be discovered that they are more than 20 million of them. The Edoid peoples were the rulers of ancient Egypt, a very intelligent, warrior, determined, hospitable group of people.
😂😂😂😂😂Dey play 😂😂😂
Writing is one of the aspects of Great Empires. The reason why ancient Egypt is famous is because its hieroglyphic writing was deciphered to pin point its history. Benin never invented writing. Word by mouth often get distorted by didactic communication sans writing.
Great Benin kingdom

Some years back I went to eat at a restaurant in Accra Ghana, I was standing on the way, and the young lady said something in Ga language that made a lot of sense to me as. Yoruba man. She "Ago" in Ga, and I understood it. In Yoruba language, We do say"Yago".
When I got back home, I narrated my experience to an old lady, and she told me that the Ga's are from Ile Idea. So I don't understand saying the Ga's are from Bini
The Benin's provided the kingship for the yoruba through Oduduwa, the exiled son of the last Ogiso Iwodo of Igodo Kingdom. So, the link is Oduduwa and that's what will make you understand.
Ago is not Ga it is Ewe language which the Gas also use.Thank u
Ago is not Ga it is Ewe language which the Gas also use.Thank u
Some GA are from Ile Ife. This man is lying.
@@curtisuwuigbe6343This is a lie, the original owners of Igodomigodo have refuted that.
The Ifa oracle said that a person (a stranger) will emerge from the forest, from the east, to rule Ile-Ife. Then, Ife had no king, only a chief Obatala.
When the Benin Prince Ekhaladerhan/Izoduwa emerged from the forest, with a nobility carriage with some of his warriors and followers, he met Obatala and the people of Ile-Ife. At that time Oduduwa could NOT speak Yoruba because he was NOT a Yoruba man. Oduduwa and Obatala used divinity to communicate. After a while, the people of Ife were endeared to him causing Obatala to be jealous leading to a fight between Oduduwa and Obatala in which Oduduwa won. At the time Benin was still in turmoil and needed the son of Ogiso Iwodo to sit on the throne. News got to Chief Oliha that Izoduwa was never killed and that he fled westward. A search party was sent which found him at Ile-Ife. The search party asked Oduduwa to return to Benin to sit on the throne of his fathers but he was reluctant due to age etc. They asked that he sent one of his sons and he obliged sending Oramiyan with them to Benin. However when Oramiyan arrived Benin, Chief Ogiamien who was a reagent for the throne refused to give up the throne and the issues continued until Oramiyan left Benin to Oduduwa who told him there shouldn't be two kings in Ife. Therefore Oramiyan left for Oyo to found the Alaafin stool. So, whilst the Yoruba people always existed as a separate people from the Edos, the Edos established kingship for the Yoruba's through Oduduwa.
Where did you hear that from? Even during the time of Obatala, he wasn't the only Oba on the throne.
My own friend who is GA told me they migrated from Ile Ife
They say Akwaaba instead of Ekabo
He is right, there are set of GA that migrated from Ile Ife.
Why don't the Ga go back to our theocracy and abandon this foolish and divisive chieftaincy system. It will also make us unique, the only tribe with a theocracy in Ghana.
What theocracy?
Eighty Nine people had their properties destroyed and sold by the Ohen of okhuoromi Mr ovbokhan igbinovia till date nobody from the palace has called him to answer for his crime and his walking freely. Is it that the argument over artifact is more important than the lives of the poor citizens ?
how about reporting the case to the police or the Governor's office?
@nebo tv try to be professional have told you several times your headline is wrong…he went there to try and explain to them the Ga people never said there from Benin kingdom.
says who??? They are the ones that said they migrated from Benin
Be deceiving your self. The Ga people are celebrating the day they came out from Benin. They are the ones saying that they are Benin's. If you don't know what to say think before you talk.
@@HistoMart so that why is explaining the artefact money to them to get there interest.
Yoruba people trying desperately to hijack Benin history.. But I always ask them one question which none of them has been able to answer and I base all my debate with them on that one question and I advise Benin people should do the same. The Yoruba and Ife history has it that Oduduwa is a foreigner in Ife and was unable to speak or comprehend the Ife language when he first arrived Ife..The Yoruba should tell us where Oduduwa is from since they accept he is not a Yoruba man. Some have said Oduduwa is from the sky, some have said he is from the east and recently some of them are saying he is from Saudi Arabia. How ridiculous.. Tell Yoruba people that if they can tell the world where Oduduwa is from, then Benin will accept their version of a fabricated history.

So you went to Ghana to explain to people where they come from and you don’t tell them the name you people call Oduduwa just look at the way they are looking at you please stop doing this ok.
@Sunny Obaz Oba Akenzua video with Sir David Attenborough go and watch it okay.. what I’m saying is Benin people don’t need to force relationship with with Ga people..go and watch video where Ga king welcome the Ooni of IFE not sitting with one chief and try to tell them stories.
@Sunny Obaz go and watch video where Ga King and the Ga people welcome Ooni of IFE not sitting with one chief and tell them stories.
@Sunny Obaz Oduduwa was born and raised in IFE and everything was detailed in IFA Oracle and before he became king in IFE..why are you keep calling Oduduwa when you know that you got the name that you people call him according to your chief?
@Sunny Obaz the Oba of Benin we never say what you are saying go to Portuguese archive and British archive you will find the facts there the greeting of Oba of Benin still refer them back to IFE and some of the chief of Benin.
All these arguement is same worldwide. All tribes and persons are interrelated. Weda oduduwa , ikaladeran, Eweka. The irony of it is oba of Benin and Ooni of Ife even know they are brothers. It is ppl outside that will argue themselves out . It's even funny both look alike. During the coronation of present Oba, he cleared this historical arguement in front of the Ooni and till today, Ooni never countered him. Instead, they visit and hug each other. The throne of every kingdom have a twist. So just enjoy and accept current day dispensation.

Wrong linking of Oduduwa to Benin kingdom, Oduduwa is a native of Ile ife,Oduduwa was one of the 16 leaders in Ile ife during his time,Ifa divinity Oracle confirmed this narrative.,before the ascendance of Oduduwa Ile ife have had 97 kings,so Oduduwa was not the first king of Ile ife.
Oduduwa birth in Ile ife and ascension is of 1200 years old and his grandson is Oranmiyan who founded the current benin monarchy.
That a lie,oduduwa was prince ekhaladeran of ogodomigodo currently benin

You are right
The highest slaves sales were from Benin city lead by oba and chiefs incorporated by the Portuguese
It could be true, that would happen with external forces bringing in guns, gunpowder to make Bini powerful in the region. When they go to war, they win wars the captured men are the reward of the interfering external forces.
It was abominable for edos to sell slaves. So, you may need to re evaluate tour sources

Where did you get that from
@Sunny Obaz pls you guys should stop resorting to insults or the usage of vulgar words to make your point know, we are way better than that I beg you guys
Children are never older than their parents
May be in your village
Now you know the real history and try to bend it..the GA people have told you to your eyes 👀 that they are Yoruba and I know you will not show that part that the GA chief told you that they left ILE-IFE long time ago..
Wroung history, oduduwa not from bini
I will advise the GA people to throw away the books and never forget who made you to run away from your ancestral home is the Oba remember he's not your ancestor he's from Ile ife
Kudos to you, be deceiving your self
Anywhere he is from, he is ruling now. Take it or leave it. Anybody wey no strong ,dem de overthrow am. It's human living. All kingdoms have story of betrayal, wars and overthrowing. It's allowed. If the obas did it for this long, they are the strongest. Crying won't help. The British throne is like that. Survival of the fittest.
Wake up
The yorubas have hidden the truth about whom oduduwa was for too long and have told their children wrong history and as such misinterprete the history, oduduwa was a banished prince from benin kingdom who made his way to ile ife and helped them fought against the fulani caliphate and was thereby crowned king in ile ife. His real name was ekaladeran but named himself after izoduwa when he arrived ile ife which they later corrupted to oduduwa, the binis only went in search of their lost prince to come and take over the throne of hia late father on getting to ile ife he had already become king and could mot return to benin kingdom but sent his first son to be the king in benin kingdom, the yorubas should go deep into the history to know the real truth. Oduduwa never descended from heaven he was a personage full blooded human and a crown prince from thw benin kingdom, he was not some sort of spirit from heaven as the yorubas narates.

While Benin people are going about preaching the gospel of re-enslavement, in the name of "GBD" without answering the difficult question?? why did Ga and other tribes escape from the kingdom? it is my hope that the Ga people of Ghana will not fall for the gospel of re-enslavement most especially when no apologies for past wrongs has been rendered by the kingdom.
No one escape from the kingdom
