Meanwhile, in the East ourbborn again friends are busy burning our Ikengas and our masquerades in the name of cleansing communities.. A lazy MF will wake up and tell you a work of art is holding him back.. Well done Oni that's the way to go..

the gods of our land have no FU*K to give

MARYchiells:
201 shrines in one town, I fear

it is 200 gods,the oni is seen as a god thus he is the extra one..thus making it 201. the only day that is free of idol worshipping in Ife is January 1,the remaining days has a deity attached to it...

Reviving and reinvigorating idolatry and paganism? I thought he was a Christian or just pretending? Only God knows the true heart of man.

I have deep respect for every leader, more so a traditional or spiritual leader.
But...
Honestly...
How does that mimic of Statue of Liberty represent Yoruba 'Shrine' or 'Heritage' site?
Does it mean that Yoruba culture, shrine or heritage started after the Statue of Liberty in the US of A was built?


Please elucidate and correctly my ignorance, ndi Yoruba anyi.

So you put culture before Jesus?

The Bible ways A servant can not serve two masters. That is, you can not serve God and Mammon together. You have to choose. Ooni, you have to choose.

I appreciate this cultural promotion,but I will appreciate you more Kabiesi if you do something about Shekona-Edunabon-Ile Ife road. The roads are in a very deplorable condition. I understand it's a Federal Government road but kindly use your influence to do something Baba. It's a shame that the major road leading to the Cradle of Yoruba race from the state capital,Osogbo could be so abandoned.

Yarnvibes:


He said that members of the race could be found in South West Nigeria, Edo State as well as in Ghana.

I disagree with his Imperial Majesty on the geographical spread of Yorubas within the Nigerian borders. There are Yorubas in Kwara and Kogi states and they contribute significantly to their populations. Why did Ooni single out Edo State where his wife comes from?

I support this motion and I think it should trend on Twitter. If Oluwo of Iwo could rehabilitate a federal government road that links his town (Iwo) to Osogbo such that a road that was abandoned for close to two decades coukd come alive again, Oonirisa can not do less.

So, let it trend #OONIRISAFIXSEKONAEDUNABONROAD#

Jesus has always been before time and will always be after time.

But your idols are man made inventions profitable for nothing.

So I stick with Jesus that gives life.

Are you literate , did I not say that Jesus has been before existence.

How can you compare what has always been to idols ?

Most of those shouting Idolatory here will pick a cheque of one million dollars over Jesus any day. An Idol is something your mind is fixed on and we all worship money. So let's dump the stinking hypocrisy.

On the issue, the Ooni is the Custodian of all the deities in Ife. He's carrying out one of his core mandates by ensuring the sacredeness of the deities are upheld. The Yoruba nation from inception has always been a secular nation. No one imposses his beliefs on others. That is why you have 401 deities with different families dedicated to worshipping one or the other without rivalry, bickering, intolerance, violence and unhealthy competition among one another (like we have among Abrahamic religions). So those acusing the Ooni of 'backsliding' after identifying with one of the rligions of his subjects don't understand the complexity of the Yoruba Philosophy, which the great Ooni espouses.

AdiscoPele:


But really, do you have to comment when you don't know what it been discussed,
Was the oni's coronation done in church or through the shrine and traditional way.
The oni attending church or mosque is to show is subjects he belongs to all of them
So stop making it look like he's indebted to Christians, the Yorubas have their way of doing things before the arrival of European who brought their own religion and planted it in the mind of some gullible people.
I'm Yoruba tokan tokan, and very proud of my root.

Exactiy, you are right.

Truth comes from only one source and that source is God.
Jesus Christ is the truth that is from God.

Our kings are just pretending, the christians wants embrace christianity whìch to me, it amount to hypocrisy, th oni is father to all, so he can go to church, mosque, traditional shrines when invited. My people, there is No way Christianity will take the place of Tradition.
