Longer than the Great Wall of China. Lit by palm-oil lamps before Europe ever saw streetlights. Engineered with drainage systems and paved avenues centuries ahead of their time. In this episode of The Forbidden Frequency, we uncover the true story of Benin City—once the capital of a mighty African kingdom, now buried beneath layers of colonial silence.

Walk with us through one of the greatest feats of urban planning and defensive architecture the world has ever known: the massive moats, earthworks, and sacred gates of Benin. We explore how this civilization built walls that stretched across a continent, carved order from chaos, and held a vision of beauty and function rarely seen in global history.

This uninterrupted journey is more than a history lesson—it's a reclamation. A vivid, immersive narrative that reveals the brilliance of a people whose legacy demands to be remembered. No myths. No apologies. Just the truth, rediscovered.

Tune in, and let the earth speak.
