ABOUT US

Esan association of Edmonton was formed in 2016 by people of Esan origin from Edo state in Nigeria. 
 
The Esan people (Esan: Ẹ̀bhò Ẹ̀sán) are an ethnic group of south south Nigeria who speak the Esan language. The Esan are traditionally agriculturalists, trado-medical practitioners, mercenary warriors and hunters.
 
The modern Esan nation is believed to have been organized during the 15th century, when citizens, mostly nobles and princes, left the neighboring Benin Empire for the northeast; there they formed communities and kingdoms called eguares among the aboriginal peoples whom they met there.

Historically, Esan traces their ancestry to the Bini (Edo) people of the powerful pre-colonial African kingdom of Bini Empire in Nigeria. 
 
There are on the whole 35 established kingdoms in Esanland, each of which is headed by a king called an Onojie.
