Its so painful and unfortunate that its only in this part of the world u will see people rejoicing and typing RIP to dead whenever people in authority are sick.
But, in other part of the world with civilized minds, u will see people passionately and emotionally typing get well messages and rendering prayers to the people involved. "My people perish because of lack of knowledge"..........
Our Oba has been doing nice jobs in Benin Kingdom to foster national peace and political stability in every quarters of d federation.......but, some selected few are still not comfortable with d good deeds, instead, they are wishing him dead. God Almighty will strike down anybody wishing another person to die IJN.
Infact, for your fundamental information, Oba of Benin who is over 90 years of age is not DEAD but indisposed at d present. Get well quickly to continue your good fatherly role in the kingdom of Benin..........reporting live from Ogbe Quarters, Oredo Local Government Area of Edo State, Benin City.........Oba gha to ukpe re.....isee

The king is dead,the king lives.

A king never dies because there is always one in place to take over. All he does is transits into the realm of the ancestors where he takes his position among the divine.

Please be constructive in your response, I ONLY asked questions, please.

Human rights finds it's source in culture

In other parts of the world, their rights is determined by what suits them - cultural attitude

I am African. Born and bred,what comes out of me is inborn. Until we revive our culture and bring it along into the present, we will remain zombies like we are now. We will remain the ones to be pitied and rescued by our lifelong oyinbo masters.

The Benin traditional systems works better that Nigerian so-called democrazy for sure.

I have an issue with monarchy because it is the antithesis of a meritocracy, empowering one figure with so much power usually leads to abuse.



And what is wrong with meritocracy? Infact that's the best way of governance
You expect power to be given to dumb morons who have no achievement and pride in culture?

Probably you don't know what meritocracy is but it's common sense to give to who is deserving...you don't know the history of Benin and why Edos owe so much to the Oba

Many people would prefer power abuse from a well deserving figure in the face of competence and development (eg. Mao of China, Oba Ewuare, Alaafin Sango) over democracy with corruption, poverty, epileptic power supply, awful infrastructure etc. eg. Nigeria since 1960

Where did I say there was a problem with meritocracy? Look up the definition of 'antithesis'.
