Hello! Go into history. Oba of Benin has visited the Oni of Ife in his palace. Google wil clarify you with pictures.

He may have visited because of historical ties.
Or u also saw him travelling all over the places ni as our kings even the ooni is known for?

Remember,Ooni of Ife just came back from America with a large entourage?
That's outside his Aso Rock visit and several other visits like that.
This Oba will not leave his palace let alone Benin or other parts of the state rather Presidents,govs,Kings etc will come and look for him in his palace.

No mind them.
They go wait in Ife tire.
After-all, Ooni is already in Benin.
After today's coronation,Oba of Benin remains in the palace.
The only monarch I know that don't junket from one place to the other but Kings from world over come and meet him in his palace.
Rest My Oba!
Keep quiet,his father was in ile-ife to pay a courtesy visit to Ooni Adesoji Aderemi after ascending the throne in 1979.

I always have my way of silencing those Bini people when that "who came first" argument comes up: why is it that the heads of all Bini obas are buried in a shrine in ile-ife if its really true that oduduwa was a Bini slave? Why bury a kings head in a town founded by his supossed "slave"?

They all shut up after this..

FACTS ABOUT THE YORUBAS AKA AFONJAS
( 1 ) . Their story of
kingship began with Edo
prince and the Benin
recorded History .
( 2 ) . Ayayi crawder said,
little were know about
yoruba existence,
meaning they were not
part of Nigeria of today
boarder or were in small
settlement close to
dahomy. yoruba are half
muslims and those with
African traditions copied or got them from Benin
civilization . I doubt if they not immigrants from dahomy
mix with Benins or other fulani- hausa from Niger
. Bishop Samuel Adjayi Crowther (c . 1809 – 31
December 1891 ) Was the first African Anglican bishop
in Nigeria . Born in Osogun (in today's Iseyin Local
Government, Oyo State , Nigeria ) . His grandson was
Herbert Macaulay
( 3 ) . Yoruba have dublicity of kingship with the process
highly politized to being traditional . A system they try
copy from Benin but can 't get it real like the Benin
Kingdom. Edo Obaship is one of the most revered
institutions in the world because of the way it has
sustained its awesome prestige with strict and
meticulous attention to ancient traditions of valour ,
discipline and integrity . Edo chieftaincy titles cannot be
bought or conferred on non- indigenes or frivolously .
Every Edo chief performs a peculiarly sacred duty
and responsibility to the people of Edo. It does not make
sense , therefore , to think that a people who would not
and have never conferred their chieftaincy titles on non-
indigenes, would voluntarily invite , accept, or surrender
to non- indigenes as their kings . Due to celestial
origins , the Edo monarch cannot eat out and cannot be
diverted from full time palace duties to hustle
for contracts .
( 4 ) . Most of today
yoruba religion are
Benin Origin , Olokun ,
Ogun , Iha oguega (ifa ) ,
oronmila, Esago
(shango ) , Ayelala etc .
Many Benin traditions
and spirituality are
stillfully documented by
yorubas in high places
as YORUBA ? (Never mind the Edo man ' s christian
mindset quickly dening Edo have niothing to do with
African traditional religion , agreeing they are foriegn to
Edoland . . . LIE ) .
Although the Great Edo ( Benin ) Kingdom were not major
participants in the trans- Atlantic slave trade , because
the Obas (Kings ) believed that their subjects were too
valuable to sell away , and their noblemen had need of
war captives on their own farms , the influence of Edo
religion and medicine has still been substantial upon
the people of the Americas .
According to Mason (1996 ) , it has been widely
accepted that Olokun ( god of the sea ) worship
originated with the Edo and spread to the Yoruba ( p. 2) .
In fact, the most prominent part of Edo cultural
traditions that has made its mark in the New World is
Olokun worship. Olokun (god of the Waters ) worship
originated from Urhonigbe and then became prominent
at Ughoton around the Ethiope ( Olokun) River . The
priesthood and rituals were firmly established at the
time . Some of the possible points of contact happened
early. During the Ogiso Period , trade with the Yoruba
and Igbos was quite extensive. Olokun worship may
have spread to those areas through traders . Prior to the
Oba Period , Ekaladerhan Izoduwa was initiated into
Olokun as a chief Priest while he stayed at Ughoton ,
before his moving westward with his followers to
establish Ilefe ( Ero , 1999 , p . 108- 109) .
Once he arrived , Ekaladerhan Izoduwa brought Edo
traditions to those areas and was a King of his new
community called Ilefe , which could be what yoruba call
IFE. . From Ekaladerhan Izoduwa ’ s loins , the Yoruba
dynasties may have began. However, it is certain that
Olokun is an Edo divinity whose worship spread to the
outlying Yoruba areas.

Royalty is divine, the atmosphere alone couple with the galaxies of first class rulers is exciting, thank God I am alive and present to witness the occasion, kudos to the new teenage bride and mother of the next king. Benin people are really blessed with culture and they love their king. Oba ghato kpere!ise.

Are you saying the pre existing first wife son does not qualify for the throne except the new ones?

Oba Of Benin heads are never buried in Ile Ife.

lol you are funny. Why were the pre dynastic kings of Benin called Ogiso in the first place? If you do not believe in such?
Why didn't the Ogiso title for Igodomigodo kings continue in the times of Eweka and Ewuare? why use Oba? a Yoruba terminology?

I tire ooo.
They even have close to 4 version of where they came from.
Coming from the sky to form the earth ke?
Awon neighbours should reason reasonably and think deeply ooo.
They should know a Prince was simply banish from the palace in Benin and found succour in Ife who matched the prophecy of their Oracle and was made the Ooni in Ife.
Until the truth is known, we are ready for them.
