Although Alaafin is a muslim he read the Holy Bible in a church to mark his thanksgiving. Northern Muslims have a lot to learn from the Yorubas. 12 Likes |

warrenweste: How does this affect/change my views about what is common knowledge to all. Even though 'm a child/subject of a dynasty, it doesn't change the fact that my generation thinks or sees differently & majority of these traditional rulers are corrupt & divisive in every sense of that word. I believe they can apply themselves better. |

The only vital thing i picked here is suprisingly not Oba this or Oba that but the fact that Oba Lamidi held his celebration in a Church. I thought he was a muslim? In this vein, i must hail the ethnic group where he hails from. Religious tolerance is one of the keys to a peaceful Nigeria. Thats one thing i think i like about the SW.. Religiom is never an issue for them. Kudos 12 Likes 1 Share |

akinvest: I think it is the opposite. In modern politics, since about 500 years in fact, Alaafin has more clout. Culturally, historically and spiritually for Yorubaland and beyond, The Ooni any day. Descendants of Ooni family are in some ruling houses in Edo/Niger Delta. 3 Likes |

4nobody4every1: I think that is the wrong way to look at it. To the world for centuries, Oyo Empire kept the flag flying. Fighting off Jihadists that would have subjugated all of Yourubaland under the Fulanis. Despite losing Illorin. Benin Empire did same to Keep jihadists from invading Northern Edo from Idah. The wars lasted good six years. The Hausa kingdoms for example did not succeed in doing that. But before that, Oodua and his descendant rulers enabled the process of at least minimally centralizing Yorubaland towards a greater sense of ethnic/cultural identity. And that is no mean feat. At this point in history, it should be about complimenting each other:The Ooni, Alaafin, Awujale, Olowo, Alake, Deji, Eleko, Olubadan, Ataoja, Soun, and many others. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Nowenuse: Ion think that question is necessary, they should sort that out between themselves. Thats what Brough this 'rivalry' between the late Ooni and the current Alaafin of Oyo. Since the new Ooni is seeing beyond the mere supremacy 'thing' then why should we there subjects still be bent on who is SUPREME? 2 Likes |

IKU BABA YEYE(one who orders death sentence)ALASE EKEJI ORISA(second in command to gods)OBA TI N FOBA JE(the king that crown kings)OBA TI N GBA IDOBALE OBA(the king that acceptskings salute).....this is just an extract from alaafin of oyo eulogies.At the peak of oyo empire,yoruba glory was at its acme,oyo dominates political leadership of the entire yoruba kingdoms,our unity was like collectionof brooms tied together to do the sweeping,the empire created strong defence tactics against the neigbouring enemies and were forced to pay tributes at oyos will in those days.Alaafin of oyo confirmed the appointments of prominent obas such as alake of egbaland,osile oke ona,olowu of owu,onisabe of sabe,alaketu of ketu,owa obokun of ijesha land etc before their independence conquests.Alaafin approved the establishment of other thrones such as awujale of ijebuland,soun of ogbomoso,olubadan of ibadan,timi of ede etc.Oyo dynasty designed prominent military rulers for yoruba such as bashorun and aare ona kakanfo.Alaafin has the final say on disputes between obas and other other yoruba kingdoms.oyo conquest expanded yoruba land greatly at the peakof the empire.ile ife was recognise as cradle and sacred place for yoruba.Hence it's duty of oyo to protect ife from attack and no oba was recognized by alaafin but the chief priest called ooni. I am happy about ooni visits but supremacy tussle will continue unless he accepts alaafin superiority in yorubaland. 2 Likes |
