DO NOT COME HERE WITH YOUR POISON...

hercules07:

The Alaafin is superior to the Ooni on all fronts, it was the politics of the AG that elevated the Ooni, who was the Ooni to talk, hell, even the Modakekes sacked Ife several times, even when the Ibadans disagreed with Alaafin, they did not have the temerity to attack Oyo.

remsonik:
I am from ogbomoso and I spend the first 20 years of my life in oyo. I attended FGGC oyo. The likes of joju adeyemi,sherifat mariam and some more I couldn't remember are Feggo girls

MsNas: Well, I'm from Oyo State, though from Ibadan (Omo Ibadan and always proud of it ). The Alaafin of Oyo actually does well in promoting the Yoruba culture a lot. Makes me proud of my Yoruba heritage. Kudos to Oba Lamidi Adeyemi. I've not seen Oba Sijuade out these days that much, wonder why...
The Alaafin sure knows how to enjoy life sha

But BTW... why is that Olori (King's Wife) as white as that? I'm not bashing her but with the stereotype associated with Yorubas (which is stupid IMO), I cannot for the life of me fathom why some women whiten their skin. She might be naturally light-skinned sha.

babyosisi: Well it's a surprise the Alaafin and ooni never eliminate themselves
Now that the Alaafin has acquired a Dracula wife,I hope the ooni can match that tactics

cbrass: Did the Ooni even fight any wars except the Ife-modakeke clash

dont8: But do you know that Oba Adesida III didn't like to take pictures during his reign, I was in the Palace when he died and they have to take the picture in that state he was.

Where do you people get your information from...

Awolowo main problem was that, he did not like the Yoruba institution. And ooni of ile ife, support him so that they could both rebel against the culture. this is the story. His reward for rebellion was he became governor . because they wanted to impeach awolowo, so awolowo tried to save his face , this is how they got into this Nigeria problem.. His famous quote," I can not be impeached".

The alafin of Oyo town, soun of Ogbomosho, Olu of Ibadan and the ooni of ile ife town , olofa of offa or Oba of Benin are all of the same rank... They are just Obas ..
You can look at the pictures that book witters were just telling lies. the alafin of oyo town was knew for going about kidnapping people and selling them into slave trade.. and also the oba of Benin at that time. It was Obaseke who left benin to report it to my great grand father who was the Emperor. There are picture of the alafin of Oyo, when my great grand father arrested him too.. for slavery.

All this lies book writer write are not correct history.

The correct story is that.. Oduduwa had twin as his first children and oduduwa lived too old that he made his son king and gave his crown to His twin, who left Ile ife and His son now became king , outside of ile ife.

When oduduwa now die..the son had taken the crown and become king. there was no more crown or king in ile ife. The son was ruling from Out side of Ile Ife.

Many years later, they now said can ile ife be without a ruler.? Oduduwa first son call all the children of the third born of Akanbi , to make one of them ruler over ile ife. When he now selected for one of them as ruler over ile ife. the other children got anger and left ile ife.

Alafin went to settle in a place now call oyo.. ( where the term Oyo yo won le ="Oyo left them behind" while Oba of benin left to live in a place, which later became ibenu(Benin " anger"

Every Alafin of oyo or oba of Benin or ooni of ile ife or oba of lagos or olofa of offa, or Obaro of Kabba or obas in history have always been install by the Emperor

If you go to britain my Great grand father name is what is on all document.. Or you go to France during the division of the two countries.. not the name of the ooni of ile ife and not alafin of oyo. My name have four ADE.... ADE.... ADE.... ADEMusiwa in it..

The good thing is that there is DNA... so if they go and bring the document.. I will allow them to do a DNA on me, and it will put an end to all of this lies..

It is easy for book makers to lie.. but DNA evident disprove people.. [/size][/b]

Yes, Ife took part in Owu's defeat at Orile-Owu

But then when has war become a factor for superiority in Yorubaland? what happened to age and origin?? Didn't Egba defeat oyo?
Didn't Dahomey defeat Oyo?
Didn't Ilorin defeat Oyo?

When last did Oyo fight a battle?
Talk less of the last time they won one

Abi Your people have forgotten what Lisabi did to you?

Oyo's imperialism is over, it's jst a rich and proud HISTORY that shouldn't blind you from reality

babyosisi:

I declare you the olunaira of Nairaland

cbrass:

I don't remember telling you am Oyo, however Ooni and his Ife has always been a seating duck, even the war you mentioned wasn't a popular war, mind you those towns that broke out of Oyo only fought for independence and formed a soverign state of which Ijesaland broke out too with the help of Ogedengbe "agbogungboro" then was the prestigious and historical ekitiparapo war that finally put a stop and end to the persistence attacks from Ibadan. Even the Egbas fought, almost all this great Towns fought for liberation purposes but that can't be said of Ife

MrT2011:



I have already been banned!!! Check my profile.
Our juju make me still dey operate

Oya, let's start the war- Take position

I Love ya Guts

macof:

and when did military prowess relate to The legacy of oduduwa?
Did ur people tell u ife was built to be a warring people?

Oyo was built for the sole purpose of creating an army but answer my question since you have been on about war since

When last did oyo win or even partake in a battle?

Kiriji war didn't see Oyo flex it's powers

macof:

The Ooni had been superior even before 1300AD that Oranmiyan established the Alaafin dynasty

I don't why you people have lost ur senses like this.

Where did Alaafin get his crown? From Ooni
Where does Alaafin trace his origins? From Ooni(or better Olofin, as it was then)

Why was Oranmiyan so determined to return to ife despite having Benin and Oyo?? Ife throne is superior

musiwa94: [size=18pt]When the Emperor called all children of akanbi , so that he can install a ruler in ile ife. When he did, the others got anger, that is he started a title call "Obale" , some people call it "Oba " .. when they upgrade remove the "O" , it is call O Bale. The bale was just below the Obale or Oba. This is the history of the people.[/size]

tonytony208:

you are right bro. Even osemawe of ondo kingdom (twin brother to oba of ile oluji and favourite of their mother, who is one of the daughters or grand daughters of oduduwa) got his crown from ooni.
