Invasion 1897 by the British government is one that will forever leave a bitter taste in the mouth of the binis. Not even the combination of bubble gums, candies, chocolate can change it, it's bloody, brutal and unrighteous.
Unannounced, forcefully, explosively, vivaciously they came with guns, hammer and thongs, in the year 1897, hell rained in the great kingdom called Benin and even the Home leopard, couldn't stop it.
A king, forced to his kneels before commoners to beg for his life. "I do not do this for me, I do this for the future of the kingdom that it may breathe, that it may live, so take my life it's yours but please that of my subjects don't let it be theirs."
A son, a brother, a husband, a father, a friend, a king, the people's choice, you are gone but you will forever remain in our hearts. Long live the Home Leopard. Oba Ovonramwen Nogbaisi thank you.
