The coronation of the new Oba of Benin is something worth while, this has got me thinking if there is any monarch in Africa close to the status of the Oba of Benin?

The highest rank in social hierarchy is the top of the totem pole. A Crown King is at this position. Crown heads do not bow or bend or prostrate to one another because they are at the same strata on the pole.

What other greatness are you looking for?

Im afraid you guys run the risk of exposing this great King to ridicule with these ridiculous topics you open left and right. You act as if youve never seen a King or had one rule over you before. Is this a new thing for you?

How can the Oba of Benin be the greatest monarch in Africa when his kingdom is not even a sovereign state? The following African monarchs rule over sovereign states; the King of Morocco, the King of Lesotho and the King of Swaziland.
