Kokoebapluse:



you no dey shame? How can you say death is children of sleep? Can't you see big distance? How can you say Yoruba come from Benin? Go to Congo, Benin republic,Togo, etc there some native Yoruba in those countries they called them (yorubodie ) there are also some part here in Nigeria and their tongue is very close to Yoruba and the some word meaning are close to each other example igala in kogi, it's easier to communicate between yorubodie than Beni people, it's clear that yoruba have 1 tongue before it split around Africa and overseas, and the fact is oromiyan ( deaf and dumb) one of odudua son was father of Beni people. Pls show some respect we are your father not your brother or son. Ok?

What does Oduduwa mean?

Mraphel:

ORANMIYAN was a warrior and Benin was one of his conquered territory. That was the reason he renamed the city to ILE - IBINU..when the Edo people disrespected him.

He made the official language of the palace Yoruba language but now abolished in 1947.

Oduduwa did not give birth to ORANMIYAN. ORANMIYAN was the great and great grandsons of Oduduwa.

keep quite , oramiyan conquered benin , when ,how . the benin kingdom that was went as far as okene in the north , dahomey in the west and agbor , where and what part did oranmiyan conquer, stop lying to yourself you know the truth.

this isn't celebrated in Nigeria because we are forward thinking and acting people and festivals like these are archaic

EdiAbali:



Both the one in Brazil and the ones in Nigeria are all descendants of the Benin Kingdom

Shut up there Benin people are yorubas slaves from ife who is Benin self when almighty Yoruba's are talking Benin only exist in Edo state so stop displaying your ignorant in puplic.

Mraphel:

ORANMIYAN the first Oba of Benin traces his Origin to ile ife

you got it bro. Oranmiyan was sent by his farther to Benin based on their request for guidance when they had political issues. The people of Benin did not allow him in so he settled nearby where he named "ile ibinu" . Later he had affair with Erinwinde ,daughter of one of the inigie(Chief). This led to the conception and birth of EWEKA 1. BENIN descended from YORUBA. Oranmiyan was the first Oba of Benin and OYO empire. As for that of Lagos State. Awori people are the aborigene of Lagos. It stated from "egba" Abeokuta in ogun state. The name Awori was coined from "awo ti ri" meaning "the ceramic has sinked". The ceramic was coming from egba on water and sank in Lagos.

Read about this folks,their jazz no be here o.

EdiAbali:

Even the inferior Benin kingdom is a runt of Oduduwa descendants.

Do u know that the now known lagos state was taken out of remo land and ijebu land in ogun state
Places like sagamu had their land carved into Ogun state and places like ikorodu are part of ijebu land
Most of Lagos now were taken out of ogun state and Lagos is d smallest state in Nigeria
There are many kings in Lagos who don't make noise like oba of Lagos, saying that because he is called oba of Lagos then he controls all of Lagos is a lie
The Lagos oba of Lagos control is very small
Ask anybody
Do u know of oba of elegushi
Oba of ikorodu and so on
Awori ppl are the owner of most of Lagos
The area in Lagos that was under Benin ppl was very small
Do u know there is a place called abule egba in Lagos?
Abule means village in Yoruba language,egba ppl are mostly in Abeokuta in Ogun state, but abule egba was their land before
Many places in the now known Lagos had no influence from Benin
The place oba of Lagos has domain over in Lagos is very small
It is because of d name Lagos,everybody thinks he control everywhere in Lagos
Saying Lagos is Bini land is dumb and stupid
Awori and egba and ijebu ppl land in Lagos alone is more than 70% of Lagos
Are they Benin ppl?

Don't mind them ooo, just after abule egba, there is a place called awori before u-turn along Lagos Abeokuta express road. There is abule egun at Ipaja, so egun and the whole of badagry ( a gba da gi ri) are also from Benin... It's really dumb to say Yoruba people are from Benin, rather vice versa

What will you say about shomolu , bariga and ilaje area purely founded by the ilaje and ikales from riverrine areas of ondo. Or ibeju (which means bush in ikale/ilaje) are the ilajes or ikales also from Benin...
Whoever removed history from Nigeria curriculum is pure evil

thank you, Benin are kids to yorubas.

AreaFada2:
Lol. I knew this thread will soon degenerate into tribal war. It is no wonder that unity remains a farce.

Everywhere they see Yoruba they want to attach. What did Benin kingdom achieve before Oranmiyan came from Ife? They claim they had tens of Ogiso, let them mention the achievement of one! Lastly, ask them about their origin, they'll tell you they flew from Egypt. Bullshit! Their origin is Ife and Nupe! Whether they take take it or not, that's the simple truth. Nupe, old Ife, Chad are much older human settlements than Igodo, later renamed Ile Ibinu, Ubini, and finally Bini.

Is your last sentence true?

Gratefulheart01:


I think it was during the slave-trade migration, not only Brazil but other countries too. Then lots of Yorubas indegene of other africa countries like Togo, Benin republic and co.

But the most wide spread Nigerian tribe are the Hausa/fulanis. I think there usual illiteracy, religious fanaticism and the rest is why no one is talking about them.

Ghana been making efforts to drive out the ga fulani tribe out of Ghana since.

trapQ:
Is your last sentence true?

Yea, i saw the news sometimes ago.

majamajic:
I think Yorubas are from Brazil , just like Igbos from isreal , hausas are from Mali ?

I heard

I have a Yoruba friend from Santos in Lagos island , his granddaddy is from Brazil ,

His grandfather is a saro- those that either migrated from freetown in Liberia or Brazil directly to settle while they searched for their ancestry - before slavery became a thing in the 16th century, yorubas were selling their slaves from the spoils of ethnic wars into slavery, and most of them were shipped to bihiara (not sure of the proper spelling now) or Brazil and Portugal, that is why some like ajayi crowther were taken/sold, as a slave in the early 1800's at age 12 the yoruba ethnic group is closed and confined and they spread as far as Abidjan Ghana Togo and benin republic

Check out the dates so as to confirm that slave trading started way earlier

PietraK:


Nope. Continental breakaway caused it. We were all neighbours before the sea parted us and the land drifted apart. Think of your next village breaking away and drifting apart.

This is not true. There was no human existence during the drifting of the plates (Pangea). Those yorubas and cultures were in Brazil due to slavery. Yorubas and cultures being resilient as it is...survived many centuries and so it will continue to be. Ifa practise in Brazil is even more detailed and accepted as a religion than in Nigeria.

Internet is there as your source of information and stop peddling errors over the place. If you care to know I am a Geologist so I understand more historical Geology, if you care to know.

Why would anybody with brain ever think benin of this edo state in Nigeria that less than 2 million people are indigenous and speak the language gave birth to yoruba of over 60million indigenous speakers in Nigeria and over 40million indigenous and migrants in benin republic, Togo Ghana, cuba and brazil
Any man alive that argue this need his brain examine.

You spoke wisely... didn't know much people know about this though

That was after Oranmiyan and under Obas, not Ogiso. Igodo was hardly a kingdom in the true sense of a kingdom under Ogiso. Tell me one village an Ogiso conquered.

Naaaahhhh... So not so. Yoruba people found their way to Brazil as a result of slave trade. When slavery ended in the late 19th century, the Yorubas that had been forced down there stayed back and had a community for themselves. White people have always been known to love the yoruba culture. So it's no surprise they embraced it and made it their own. Your friend from Santos is a descandant of slaves Go tell him that

you called these people yoruba?. white men?

Lol. Both sides are guilty of this dude. We just like to fight in this country generally. For no reason. Afonja here, Igbo there. It is turning out that the generations earlier were far better.

ORANMIYAN the first Oba of Benin traces his Origin to ile ife

Oranmiyan was not the first oba of Benin
After owodo there was no capable person to lead the Benin kingdom, note: even before owodo there have been Kings that ruled Benin kingdom(igodomigodo)

So the kingmakers sent emissaries to oduduwa in ile ife ( one of their sons anyways)
So oduduwa gifted them oranmiyan who gave birth to eweka.

Oduduwa did not sound like a yoruba name
If you know
Ozoduwa
Izoduwa
Ereduwa
Adesuwa
You will know even oduduwa migrated from benin

fatiaforreal:

during the ogiso dynasty, igodo stretched. from ughotton , to present day warri and present day okene.

gwinaB:



What does Oduduwa mean?

According to ifa ( Oracle)( odu) means something like title or let say topic.

And( iwa) means character. As ifa ( Oracle) say and show about destiny of odudua it means (title of character) and they name him after his destiny according ifa view, but as time passes on and people pronounced change it as normal thing as we all know so they turn it to odudua, but his real name is (odu iwa.)
