@ovonramwenogie: Let’s correct this narrative once and for all… Some of you keep saying, “we are not from Benin, we are from Idu (Igodomigodo)” as if that changes anything. But here’s the part you keep avoiding: The land was known as **Ubini** *before* it was called **Igodomigodo**. Then it became **Edo**… and later returned to **Benin**. So let’s be logical for a second… If you insist that Igodomigodo and Ubini (Benin) are NOT the same, then what you’re actually saying is this: 👉 The people of Ubini (Benin) were already there before Igodomigodo ever existed 👉 Which means Ubini people are far older 👉 Which means they are the original inhabitants — the foundation everything else came from So how can you reject Benin and still claim Igodomigodo? You’re literally trying to disconnect from the very source that predates what you’re claiming. You can’t start the story from the middle and ignore the beginning. Let’s even go deeper… If Ubini existed first, and Igodomigodo came after, then Igodomigodo is not an “alternative origin” — it is part of a timeline that already began before it. You cannot remove the beginning of a story and still expect the rest to stand on its own. History is not something you rearrange because it suits identity or sentiment. It is a continuous flow. Once you break that flow, your entire argument collapses. So when you loudly say “we are not Benin, we are Igodomigodo,” what you are actually doing is creating a contradiction you cannot defend: Because by your own claim, you are placing yourself AFTER a people you are trying to deny. Think about that carefully. At this point, it’s not even history anymore — it’s selective acceptance. Denying Benin while holding onto Igodomigodo is like inheriting a house and denying the person who built it ever existed. It’s like reading chapter 5 of a book and insisting chapters 1–4 are irrelevant. It’s like standing on a tree branch and arguing that the root has nothing to do with you. The truth is simple, even if some people don’t like how it sounds: 👉 Ubini (Benin) is the root 👉 Igodomigodo is part of the evolution 👉 Edo is a continuation Anything outside of that is just emotional revision, not history. So be honest with yourselves for once… Are you standing on history… or just pride? I’m waiting. Let’s talk 👇🔥 #Edo #Benin #History
