psalmsjob: Empires are evil. Empire is not thing but the stealing of other people's lands through war |

Christistruth02:any evidence? |

gidgiddy: Who gave those people whose land was taken through war those land to begin with? How did it become "their" land? The world has always been a survival of the fittest in both biological and community survival and the strongest people create empires and dynasties just as adoptions come to be. Bini empire controls all the territories of the south east all those Igbo settlements that are now states or LGA are either under direct rule of the empire or paying royalty and protection money if you know don't know you better go and read the history books. |
gidgiddy: 3:50pm On May 02 |
psalmsjob: This is 2025, not 1865. Empire is an evil thing, Bini empire was evil. Empire means at some point, some people left their land to go and take over the lands of others through violence and war. This is evil |

Christistruth02: When did Zik become Lord Luggard? |
psalmsjob: 4:03pm On May 02 |
gidgiddy: Just as evil as in 2025 some people will claim they are of a certain tribe so that where they reside in another man's land automatically belongs to their tribe. Is that not same evil if not more evil in your eyes? If not then you don't know or understand what you are talking about or trying to talk about. |

temitope27: Oba also gave Yorubas Ife. Once we all agree with this statement, I will ask Igbanke to accept Bini overlordship. Otherwise, if Oba or anyone for that matter, tries to tamper with Igbanke land, any such group will loose all their lands. This is a promise. No one in Ika, Anioma or the larger Igboland will tolerate the stealing of Igbanke land. |

Why are people talking what they don't know, was it not this same oba of Benin that suspended one of the king and about 3 high chief in Benin last year, why is this particular suspension paining some people. Igbanke had being a part of Edo state as far back as babangida regiem, and had shared the same traditional institution with Edo for many decade, they had never been something like this before, today it has happen, and some person's don't know what the matter is, they started talking forgetting that this same Igbanke till now is still part of Edo state and not Delta state. I don't know what the problem is neither have I read from here what problem is. I believe people should allow the institution to settle there own issues them selves, crying from now till tomorrow solve anything, accept if the institution decide.

IGBOPROMISE1: Igbo Promise. Chai. see name. Very patriotic and divine name. Igbo promise to stay the course of greatness, igbo promise to be the best in this life and after life. Igbo Promise, God bless you sir. Ko na diri gi na ndi ulo gi, mma, ne bo wula okpa gi ruru. Ka Chineke gozie gi na ndi ulo gi ta na echi. Is more prayers i wish to convey, but I am still brushing up on my igbo linguistics, especially writing. In summary, may God continue to bless you, and continue to bless all igbo Patriots. Igbos for the most part know that those ndi iro around them, are filled with envy, hate, propensity to oppress the igbos, etc. And like you rightly advised, Igbos will be aware of what you advised. As for that scammer of Benin, wey one use igbo oppression shine, the igbo nation is saying no more to that. Igbankes, agbor, ika, or any other igbo clan, are not going on a conquest mission like these igbo haters. But, useless people don't want them to drink and drop cup. May God continue to bless the great igbo tribe, wherever they find themselves. 1 Like |

Shattuck: Oga Nigeria is no longer under the control of a traditional hegemony, even the Oba is still subject to the control of government and as such he has no right to control any community especially the igbankes. |

Irony1:he does not have constitutional power, doesn't mean he doesn't have his constitutional territory and as a custodian of the Benin heritage, I am sure the obi of onitsha has an area he rules over or that his kingdom extends to, even though he does not have constitutional power, can I and my tribes people now relocate to onitsha in thousands and settle there and then create our own kingdom in onitsha and then rename onitsha and when the obi complains I then say because he doesn't have constitutional power, that shouldn't be an issue. |

MrDoGood: Edo state is an artificial creation. Igbanke and the rest of Anioma were once in Bendel state. That Igbanke was left in Edo state when Bendel was divided doesn't make them Bini subjects. Stop the stupidity already. |

Christistruth02: Was it Zik that helped Fulani to conquer Illori? You should have used that energy you used in posting how Michael Okpara regrates over his advise to Zik to post your evidence here.History is science so if you allege something you must prove it truly happened.I wont waste my time searching for something that does not exist. |

looseweight: It would have been cool if Bini people and their Oba were just comfortable ruling themselves and not extend their hegemony on Igbanke. But since they can't do that, they left Ndiigbo with no option immediately Igbanke called for our help, we were always going to answer. Brotherhood will always come first before politics. Russians are in Ukraine over Ukraine maltreatment of Russians in Donbass region of Ukraine, that's how nationalism works. If Igbanke kings maintained the normal folly of Ikas where they claim they are not Igbo, Ndiigbo would not even bother about whatever Bini is dishing to them, Bini has been dishing that to them since the war ended and we didn't care because they became happy slaves who felt their redemption will come by denying their Igbo identity, it obviously backfired and they are back to us now, and of course we will never run away from the cry of a brother irrespective of what happened in the past. The Igbanke ordeal is a reminder to all Igbo speaking but Igbo denying groups outside SE. Those who encourage you to deny your Igbo heritage don't mean well for you, they are only doing so because they want to isolate you from your much bigger brothers in SE, so that they can devour you silently with no help coming your way. The way of a wise predator is to isolate a sheep from the herd to enable it to overpower and eat it without the herd coming for its help. You will never be stronger standing alone as against standing with your brothers. Our ancestors say: IGWEBUIKE( Unity is strength) and our foes know it. Notice that Binis will actively tell you that" Igbanke is not Igbo, Igbanke is not Ika, Igbanke is just Igbanke". 😃 If you challenge them over the last part of the above sentence, they will concede that Igbanke is Ika, but they will never accept that Igbanke is Igbo? Why? They are playing the number games, the predator game, Igbanke is Igbanke is easy for them to deal with, Igbanke is just Ika is still a fair game since Ika is just 2LGA and Binis are like 3! But Igbanke is Igbo is a death sentence. They can't live with that, it destroys their end game, so they will never concede that and they will fight hard to avoid that. I can't blame the Binis, they are playing their predator game well, but does the preys ( Igbo speaking groups outside SE) even know there is a game that is on? ![]() Bini moves is a typical predatory isolation move, other minorities in SS hoping to "colombi" confused Igbo groups in SS are using same template. The target is always isolation of the sheep from the herd. As long as Igbanke kings maintain that they are Igbo, and don't revert back to "We are just Ika" or "we are just Igbanke", the Oba of Bini and infact the entire Bini people will be scared to do anything against them, because of the overwhelming population of Igbos in SE he will be coming up against.

paramakina202: You don't even know that the Yoruba of Ilorin had reconquered it before the British arrived and that it was Yoruba Balogun Alanamu who was the Ruler of Ilorin after the Emir had been defeated and deposed. You don't know the History it it Azikiwe played a major role in making sure Kwara was carved into the North
