Armchair analysis. OlubAdan will hardly make Top 10 in Yorubaland, not to talk of NigeriA

ipobbigot7:
Who put Obi of Onitsha in list? His names should be removed immediately and should be put in the third class where he should belong.

Egbon 7Jarus, good evening.

What did you premise your conclusion on?

Ebeleiscorupt:


You are right about your assertion.

Why should anyone include any king from the SE in the list of first class kings in Nigeria?

You even try to consider third class for them, they should be in the zero class if there's such.

ruggedized1:
Obi of Onitsha is the most powerful stool east of Niger and most educated king in Nigeria.

Igwe Alfred Nnaemeka Achebe.

This post isn't listed according to how powerful they are. I only write about few of them who are well known to the public.

Baba... Abeg send this to FP!

Asides from the economy & social clout Lagos weilds, Oba of Lagos lacks any cultural relevance tohave been rated first class - except ofcourse the economy & social status of a state affects the class of a king?

Oba Eko is in the same class as Olugbo, Olubadan, Soun, Timi, Ataoja and any throne created or rests on the monarchical relevance or power of another throne & not triggered by cultural system.

Alaafin of Oyo throne is still occupied by the blood line of original Alaafin but a lot of things attached to that throne had gotten lost as a result of its migration from Oyo Ile to Ago Oja. Oyo derived its relevance from military expenditions which it never had over Ife throne (another history entirely). Oyo throne should not be classed ahead of Ife; if military might is the determining factor then Olubadan should be ranked before Alaafinas it is a known fact that Alaafin Oyo paid tributes to Baale (now Olubadan) Ibadan & was under Ibadan's military might till the colonial period.

Seeing Emir ranked before Sultan makes it obvious the compiler of this list is not a very bright person.

Bini throne is the highest in Nigeria

The installation procession of a throne tells a lot about the historical relevance it holds. A quick look at the installation procession of the Bini throne shows a first class seat.

The Ooni throne is in the class of Owa Ijesaland & monarchs in that league.
