Nice one bro but Oba doesn't have any reason to play politics. Oduduwa is Ekaladeran. And yes Ekaladeran was at Ughoton but he later left

Whenever you all feel obligated to be a bigot, let it sink in you all that:

Ibadan raided Benin Kingdom for slaves.

Ibadan sacked many settlements in Benin Kingdom.


This is not to mention how Benin City itself was at the mercy of Ogedengbe.

Edeyoung:



(1) We killed the thug... Ogendegbe in esan land he never steped foot in benin how would he cross the benin walls and the ditch surrounding it

Ogendegbe was stop at esan


(2) Ibadan raided his people in edo north the yoruba people who fled to edo for oba safety
They still keep thier yoruba names today

TAO12:


(1) Now Ogedengbe of Ilesa is a thug because he raided Benin Kingdom and took captive of your people.

Anyways, if there was any evidence that a single Edo finger was raised against him (let alone kill him) I'm sure you would not have hesitated to share such evidence.

The only evidence available in academia, however, remains the fact that Ogedengbe descended against Benin Kingdom and took many captives.


(2) Aje of Ibadan raided the following Edo settlements namely:

Edeyoung:


Did ogedegbe venture to benin

TAO12:


Yes Ogedengbe raided in Benin Kingdom capturing many of your people as slaves.


I am still waiting for your evidence that he was killed by the Benin people after enslaving and torturing them.

Edeyoung:
More.....

Did you just post a screenshot from an Edo blog and passed it off as academic evidence?? OMG! rotflmao!

Anyways, that's all you could afford -- Edo blogs from where you all regurgitate super-stories into each others' mouths.

If you had an academic evidence (such as a peer-reviewed academic journal article, etc.) I am 100000000% certain that you would have presented it.

Such statements is no more than super story. No substantiation whatsoever.

What remains affirmed as fact is that Ogedengbe raided in Benin Kingdom capturing many Edo as slaves.

Moreover, even your Edo blog is yet to support your imagination that Edos killed Ogedengbe.

Edeyoung:


Benin kindom is diff from benin city....

So did he enter benin city

Edeyoung:


Edo blog yea it is but it was an interview record made by a Yoruba man not edo


Edo blog only copied the audio speech into written documents

While you wont take it serious others will

TAO12:


Oh you just admitted that Ogedengbe captured Edos as slaves from your Benin Kingdom.

But your joy is that he did not wipe off the whole kingdom including the capital.

Well, may be you should read out to everyone what Ogedengbe's military mission/agenda document is -- stressing on where it says his actual destination was the capital.

No, his mission was to capture non-Yoruba slaves with his specific target at that point being Edos -- Benin Kingdom.

Benin Kingdom's military failed to stop him from enslaving their people.

Still waiting on your evidence of his death at the hands of the Edos who he enslaved and tortured.

Edeyoung:



Do you know why i like quoting you, you seem not to quit in the face of defeat, you will still find
Words to say, you are unlike the others who finds finds thier words while using as bait

Anyway i deliberately tagged you on this post i know you will run coming, and as soon as you do that, the others will come around....

TAO12:


If you had any concrete reply to what you just quoted, you would definitely have presented it instead of the super-story you typed here.

More like being defensive and projecting your very own insecurity and flaws on your interlocutor.

Edeyoung:



(1) Ogedengbe never steped in benin city he only raided edo north to edo central

(2) were he stoped at igueben and was driven back by the esan warriors by the orders of the oba of benin

(3) Ogedengbe was later captured by the British and was later released untill he died in1910

Edeyoung:

.

TAO12:


(1) For your statement to be perceived as sane, you will have to show that he intended to capture Benin City and not simply Edo/Bini slaves.

More like Oyo warriors capturing Hausa slaves and than a ret@rded Hausa internet warrior saying:

WeLl, tHe OyO wArrIorS DiDn'T cApTuRe aNyOne fRoM KaNo.

Hello, Hausa slaves is want they want and that could be from any Hausa kingdom, they didn't set out for kAnO. Gosh!

I wonder what the military of Benin Kingdom in charge of those parts of their Kingdom were busy doing while he slave-raided for ?months before returning.

(2) Even after several plea and begging for evidence to substantiate this statement, you still couldn't produce any -- not one line of statement.

Even your disgraceful allusion to an Edo blog didn't support you.


(3) Oh he wasn't killed in an engagement anymore.

He was only captured and then released to let go and die later.

Interesting shameless Benin spin. But you have to make up your mind though

But in any case, I am waiting for the evidence for this latest spin.

Edeyoung:


So whats your version of ogedegbe lets hear it

TAO12:


Thanks for admitting that what you've been saying are conflicting Edo blog versions of a super-story [NOT history] or the purpose of sensationlism aimed at gullible Edo audience.


As far as history is concerned, Ogedengbe was going about raiding and sacking territories to capturing slaves for domestic purposes, to forcefully enlist them into his ranks, and to sell some abroad obviously.

The Edos he captured were just another unfortunate victims of his different incursions. For him, there is nothing peculiar about Benin Kingdom. It's just another potential unfortunate territory just like others.

Edeyoung:


Ogedengbe was driven back by the esan warriors no one felt his presence in esan except in edo north which he raided is yoruba people akoko
