Talking about greatest kings that ply this Earth, kings that ruler Nations, King Solomon, King David, King Cyrus, King Nebuchadnezzar etc, these Kings acknowledged the power of the almighty. Is Your Ooni greater than any of these? He knew He needs the real God, not one tiny god in calabash or small hut.

Nebukadnezar, David, Cyrus as a Babylonian never indulged in foreign gods..Solomon who did is usually rebuked for it.
It's best to condemn the act of a traditional ruler indulging in foreign religion

Shut up! If a yoruba man needs the real God he should seek Olodumare in the various shrines and temples in Yorubaland. .in fact Olodumare can be sought anywhere in Nature unlike ur god that lives in an ark the jews kept

ANd the story that a man that died for claiming nonsense 2000 years ago in some village in the Middle east is your saviour is not enslavement?

What if Jesus died in Africa
Born of a carpenter
Welcomed by three dibias
With cowries, yams and talismans

What if Jesus died in Africa
Faraway from Mecca
And closer to Abuja,
Aso Rock, his path on Passover

What if Jesus died in Africa
His cross made of rafia
Stoned with mounds of eba
Alomo passed to him as his soul crossed over

But Jesus didnt die in Africa
No eba was stoned at Golgotha
The son of David had no idea whatsoever
That there was a land called Africa.


God that didn't save himself from three nails 2000 years ago and hasn't come back since will save me from what?


HE didn't save all the Christians and Muslims Boko Haram killed in the North. HE didn't destroy the Boko Haram that was supposedly 'spoiling' His Name. Can you see how stupid your God is. Look at all the prayers and tithes and pilgrimage and time Nigerians spend on 'God' business every year and see where we are... Nansenz.. grin grin

Your cars, your phones, your language, your books do not reflect you. You fight for the Gods of the Jews and Arabs. You kill yourself in the name of Allah and Yahweh. And destroy the temples of Chukwu, Olodumare. You insult Esu by calling Him Lucifer. You insult Ekwensu, the great god of war and craftiness, by equating him with Yahweh's archenemy Lucifer. You are deranged, your history is broken, that is why your present is a miserable existence.
who says Jesus knew nothing about Africa? He was brought to Egypt as a baby and grew there to his childhood!!!

Religious extremists everywhere.

1) We have those like ogundeleT and Thismeanswar, who believe d ooni is wrong to kneel. Ooni is d king, he can do whatever d f**k he wants. Go and remove him now, kaa ma woyin ni ran. Babanla iya iya yiin otobe. All na online 'blasting'.

Yoruba traditional belief is d most liberal in d world. Refer to wole soyinka on dis matter.

2) We have d xtian extremists who also believe d ooni shld not be in a church. As I said earlier, d ooni can do whatever d f**k he wants. If DT means he's not a christian, DTS ur prerogative. He didn't get up to preach a sermon to u. God is d only one DT can judge him. Not you. You have no idea whether God impressed on him to go there, after all Jesus dined wt prostitutes and corrupt tax collectors. Also God used idol worshipping kings in d bible. Face ur front & worship ur own God d way u believe.

I know 80% of Yorubas reason like me though so d extremists need to just kp getting high BP.

He goes to church to seek God Almighty, because that is where He can be found. And the king gives thanks to Jesus, because Jesus is way higher than all the Obatalas, Obalufons and Oranfes put together. undecided

almighty god? A god that can only be found within a construct is not almighty. What king calls a foreign god almighty and considers the God of his ancestors less? Why did he show interest in the Obaship, why not bishop or a deacon if jesus is more important than Obalufon

what's this hullabalo abt.
did he knee infront of men, did he kneel down for pastors or reverend .
or before the king of kings , the lord n maker of heaven n earth.
olodumare, olu-orun(olorun), oba adeda, aseda, oludaye ati orun.
if he knelt before God n for God, then there's nothing wrong.
You're saying nonsense
And Olodumare is best sought for in a church? So our ancestors went to church to seek Olodumare?

What do you mean by 'foreign' God? The Almighty God who is the Creator of the universe, is not a 'foreign' God! The man is not interested in being a deacon or bishop. If he was interested in such things, he would have been made one long ago. He has gone to give thanks to the Almighty God the Creator of heavens and the earth, who made him a king.

Now if your obalufon gods feel slighted, then let them flex their muscles and dethrone him! Chikena!

Many Nigerians have taken to the social media to express their disgust at the action of the newly-crowned Ooni of Ife who was pictured kneeling in a church. They say it is an affront and rubbishing of the traditional African religion which he is supposed to defend, practise and uphold. On the flip side, some others have blasted him for mixing Christianity with traditional African religions. ‘

‘The Queen of England from the lands who brought you Christianity doesn’t kneel in the church of England nor does she kneel for the god or Jesus, but the Ooni of Ife, a sacred lineage and position that preceded that of England, preceded Christianity now feels the need to insult our culture, people, intelligence and dignity by kneeling in some church! This is just disgusting!”- Teekay Arabambi Akin

lol.Don't be deceived. You can't serve two God's at the same time. Do you have an idea 0f what an Ooni means at all. it's not possible to belong to the different cults required by tradition, and also serve Jesus at the same time.!

Our traditions and customs is in bondage. What i see people do is hide to babalawo, the next minute they tell you they are sleeping in the church becos they are fasting and praying. Hypocrisy. Kabiyesi, may you live long. You are not to kneel before any humanbeing from the day you wore the crown, not even in the church.

This is the reason why Africa will continue to remain backward and Africans continue being the least productive people on earth

You really typed this with your hands?
Over $400bn has been looted from Nigeria's treasury since 1960. That's almost our budget for over 15 years. Do you know how much development that amount would have brought us as a country? Yet you think we're underdeveloped because of Christianity? I pity your reasoning.
Even US and Europe which are the most developed regions of the world started out as Christian Nations.

If. U like pay all the tithe or even give all ur salary to God, it will make no sense to him if u r living a filthy, careless, and bitter life. Man I dnt knw wht ur frustrations r but mind u no one can bribe God or blackmail him. If u r a victim of any mishap, just reflect on ur life u will discover it's all ur fault not God's. Jesus said if u love me do my will. Wht is his will " love God n love ur neighbour". How many of so called nigerians have genuine love for their neighbour.

Ur bitterness n frustration cannot cower God or those believers who already hv encounter with God. U can only convince the hypocrites and blacksliders. No matter who u r or condition u r into u must humble urself bf Christ will pay u a visit.
