hahaha English is very wild and very interesting to discuss, perhaps we learn everyday.

People will just say a complete sentence just needs a subject, verb/predicate but end up making clauses known as dependent clauses, which are incomplete sentences, because they lack what the englishman call 'complete thought'(google this bro)

A complete thought transforms a statement with dependent clause to be self-explanatory to a good user of english.
Because of time I'll use some of your examples for proper understanding.
Nairaland is owned by seun osewa.
This sentence is a dependent clause because someone with no knowledge of nairaland will ask you what is nairaland?. But a complete sentence with a subject, verb/predicate and a complete thought will do the explanation.
Simply put........
The social media nairaland is owned by seun osewa.
Secondly you said 'oluwa is involved'.
This statement is a typical clause brother!
To make it a complete sentence i'll rather say;
Oluwa the God in Yoruba is involved. And nobody will ask what is oluwa?. This further buttress my point that 'THE'. Makes your sentence very complete. That is why it is most times unavoidable and popular. See this.....
The president of the United States is Barack Obama.
Can you smell the completness in that.
