Oba Esigie was an Oba (king) of Benin who ruled the ancient Benin Kingdom, now Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria (c.1504 – c.1550). At the time of his father Oba Ozolua's death, Esigie controlled Benin City and his brother Arhuaran controlled Udo, a town about 30 kilometres (20 mi) northwest of Benin City that was nearly its equal in size and influence. Following a bitter power struggle with Arhuaran, and with major assistance and support from his mother Queen Idia, "Esigie gathered the Benin army at Unuame on the river Osse and from there launched an attack which finally destroyed the might of Udo and his half-brother Arhuanran" (Egharevba, 1968: 26). Esigie became Oba of Benin. Esigie later fended off an attack from the Igala people.

Künstlerische Arbeiten, die Esigie in Auftrag gegeben hatte, werden heute in wichtigen Museen wie etwa dem Metropolitan Museum of Art oder dem British Museum aufbewahrt. Zum Zeitpunkt des Todes seines Vaters kontrollierte Esigie Benin, also die Hauptstadt des Reiches, während sein Bruder Arhuaran die etwa 25 Kilometer nordwestlich davon gelegene Stadt beherrschte, die an Größe und Einfluss etwa vergleichbar war. Nach einem erbitterten Machtkampf mit Aruaran, den Esigie mit der starken Unterstützung durch seine Mutter Königin Idia führte, wurde Esigie Oba von Benin. Später wehrte er noch einen Angriff durch die benachbarten Igala ab.

Esigie started a tradition in Benin by investing his mother with the title of Iyoba (or Queen Mother) and providing the Eguae-Iyoba (Palace of the Queen Mother) in lower Uselu for her use. Esigie was responsible for the abolishment of the killing of the king's mother. He abolished it and crowned his mother the Eguae-Iyoba (Palace of the Queen Mother) making her the first Iyoba. Works of art commissioned by Esigie are held in prominent museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the British Museum. (en)
