Lol, she keep deceiving her ignorant kingsmen who failed to pick uo simple history book to read


First picture depict, a setup human skull by the British to justify benin massacre on benin for her cruelty on human life's those skulls as you can see were neatly arranged by the British who picked the skulls from benin grave yard and set them up for photoshoot


As you can see that place the picture was taken is not an alter or shrine , but a palace chiefs house, which would be very unlikely to do human sacrifice, the British was not the first European to visit the oba ancestral alter, guess what, they never saw human skull on the oba royal alter

Second pic's shows a misinterpretation of a Yoruba man who based in benin, tagged by a European photographer as a benin man, unknowingly

If i am lying let her bring anoda picture of a benin man with such markings


You can see my screenshot, below i was creating a thread last year on basic misconception on benin history, it was too broad for me at that time so i abandoned it inmy browser till when i am chanced, i talked about how the British set we benin up with the notion city of blood, to justify the benin massacre



My fellow yorubas like me, Tao11 is an obsessed retard lets stop taking her serious

She has fled so many times from my numerous questions

Lol, consolation, haha,


I have trashed everything she said

TAO12:
@Olu317, I have decided to do a color coding of the different ethno-linguistic groups listed in this manuscript folio by the Timbuktu writer Ahmad Baba in the early 1600s.

This color coding approach will make it easier to reference and compare the Arabic original with the translation prepared by John Huwick and Fatima Harrak for the Institute of African Studies Rabat, Morocco.

The actual essay of Ahmad Baba from which this folio is extracted (and from where this translation was prepared) is entitled “Mi‘rāj al-Ṣu‘ūd” (for short).

The University of Alberta weblink below goes to the full translation of this particular essay with page 39 being the actual page in question here.

TAO11:
The last two years must have been the toughest for Bini lying machines.

I literally crippled their lying business venture. [Evil Laughter]

TAO11:
First of all, the “Ouyo” mentioned in the text is not Oyo. It is Ijaw. I have the material too, and it is made clear from other parts of the material that Ijaw is being referred to as Ouyo.

The rendition used for OYo in the same material is Eyo.

Secondly, the word you translated as invaded is actually infiltrated — with no connotation of military occupation whatsoever.

Finally, the text doesn’t talk of Benin having any control over any part of Lagos island occupied by indigenous people.

The only area the Binis were restricted to is the part of Lagos island allocated to them. It is from here they controlled themselves and report back to their King.

Be wary of unconsciously superimposing a general narrative upon a text.

Translation is not one and the same thing as interpretation.

After your lies, here is the actual translation in full:

"Captain Horseley called it Eco, and that is how the yebous refer to it; but it is not their land: it belongs to Benin, whom have named it Korame, you can recognise the Curamo from older Portuguese reports, just like Eko represents the Ichoo from Holland Hydrographs. Long ago Korame was linked to its metropolis by a very narrow piece of land contained between the great Laguna and the sea; but it has been a while since the Yebous have seazed that very narrow piece of land of which the eastern extremity was invaded by ouyo pirates; and Karamé remained isolated at the extremity of the great Laguna, while it continues to receive from Benin it's governor or political chief."

And here is the book.

I am the person who first posted this book into nairaland, I did so in june. Notice how this scam artist conveniently hid the book, made no mention of me and made no mention of the topic in which I posted the book and captions and a translation. Notice also tao's lie :

TAO11:
[s] Your lies and more lies as usual. If you’re asking for what the text actually says with any twist and turns, the here is what the tact says below:

“Captain Horseley referred to it as Eco [Èkó] and that is how it was designated by the Yébous [Ijebus]; but it is not their domain, it is the Bénin’s [Benin’s] — who refer to it by the name Koráme [which is] recognizably the Curamo of the older Portuguese’s accounts, just as Eco represents the Dutch hydrographers’s Ichoo.

Koráme and its mainland were linked in the past by a sand-spit between the great lagoon and the sea. However, the Yébous have, for a long time, seized that sand-spit whose eastern end has also been infiltrated by Ouyó [Ijaw] pirates.

Koráme thus remained isolated to the extreme of the great lagoon, and continued to be dependent on Bénin for its choice of governor or political leader.”

Having said that, the false narrative which you’ve sought tirelessly to weave around this passage has been debunked (at the link below) by adducing an eyewitness text which is 242 years earlier than the above passage.

My analysis of that earlier text gives clarification and light to what is actually meant in the above passage.

See the link below for where your fraudulent narrative was devastatingly DEBUNKED:
