[@martinspatrick329]

If all the tribes that made up the Benin kingdom should unite, I can see great thing happening and a country coming out of it...

[@royalty15able]

Absolutely amazing artwork But what a contradiction on hand you say Africa had no civilisation on the other hand their art is prized enough to put in your museums Well who said white supremacy has to make any sense

[@Towoawawabo8]

Right! How ironic

[@yolandaliggins9000]

Is " Benin" a part of Nigeria.... I am American born, and I have 40% Benin/Togo blood in me. I had heard that before boarders were changed alot of this was " Nigerian" land. I have 1% of Nigerian blood, 29% Cameroon Congo & Southern Bantu, 16% Mali, and 8% Ivory Coast Ghana.. Someone told me I should do the African Ancestry which could pin point information for me better. I was born in America, but I'm proud to say I have 94% West African bloodline... and I have passed that information on to my children, and plan on visiting in the near future.

[@osazuwagodwin3007]

[@sirissiris2682]

The real name of Benin is call Bini or Igodomigodo but the British change it to Benin point of correction but if you say Benin another write Bini both of you are right but one is real old Bini and the other one is new by the British called Benin ( Uluabinu named by our son from Izoduwa that change by the Yorubas Oduduwa if not the real name of the Benin is called Igodomigodo.

Idiot the british were not the first europeans to write diwn the name Benin on a map of Benin Kingdom. You morons just live on fairytales and believe yourselves to ne educated. The only recorded name for the Kingdom is Benin Kingdom and its capital is Benin City.

[@emwinyoghoosamede7086]

You lied period study more about Benin clearly

[@mk696]

Bini Kingdom does not exist. The correct name for the Kingdom is Benin, not Bini. The inhabitant of the Kingdom are called Edos. The word Bini was made up by outsider.

[@omolove3812]

Oduwa Eweka idiot go to school and learn what is the meaning of kingdom or as Google

[@mk696]

It seem that you did not read and understand my comments. Stop calling me an Idiot. The word BINI is an error. The correct name for the Kingdom is BENIN. Not BINI.

[@kingsleychez5308]

@oduwa Emeka. What doesn't exist was "Benin". The correct name for the Kingdom was Bini but the foreigners pronounced it wrong so there came " Benin"

[@mk696]

@@kingsleychez5308 My name is Oduwa Eweka.... As in Omo N' Oba N'edo Uku Akpolokpolo Oba Eweka ll. Not Emeka. Emeka is an Igbo Name. I know more about Benin Kingdom than you do.

[@joyaziegbe1447]

Wow

[@bobricous5572]

U people are talking about Benin Kingdom and u are playing other tribe music. U should stop all this Nonsense that u are doing in Nigeria.

[@alphared5715]

You are absolutely correct! The music being played is not Bini (Edo) music. Junk journalism by Channel TV.

[@alphared5715]

@BGKAISSY Bob Ricous is absolutely correct. The music being played is a Malian music by Habib Koite, titled 'I Ka Barra'. Obviously Mali Music is not Nigeria music, or Edo (Bini) music. Bini music should have used, which there are tons of them available in Nigeria where this documentary was produced. Please next time, do your research before you start ridiculing others.

[@austin2k994]

Are we not one nigerian?

[@bobricous5572]

Take the music away from the Documentary. The music isn't from the Great Benin Kingdom

[@barrywilliamson7185]

[@LuckyLucky-xp2sz]

@Smack it is true. Indians are racists and keep to themselves. Cast system India. The most racist country on earth.

The level of éducation in Nigeria is horrible, how can a so called nigerian journalist rely on stupid fairytales which lead thème to misspell Benin into 'bini' ? Thinking and researching ain't you people's thing. All you needed to do was to ask Oba Palace.

[@efemzyekun900]

Why are you trolling all over the place and in the process, using bad spellings. Whatever you think, the Bini or Benin artifacts and history is rich, rich enough for your people to kill, destroy and steal for them. Get lost boy.

[@DrSmith-so2dl]

I guess you are the "expert" that can't spell! What a contradictory! Why don't you go over to that country and tell "theme" that to their face? FN DUMB ASS!!!
