This is wrong. Let us put away tribalism even though the other tribes are spitting us shamelessly.

The grand theft of African artifacts by Britain and how to return them to Africa, should be the purpose of this trip. Lets have our creations back and let white people come to Africa and pay to view them in our own museums. How could our works in British museums continue earning money for Britain? And you tell me slavery is over?

On culture, what he should've done is speak Yoruba and they should have an interpreter to translate to English. Vladimir Putin speaks English very well, but you'll never see him speak it on camera. Angela Mickel speaks French and English very well, but they put their languages first. Language is the first instrument for promoting culture!.

It's time to come out of the box!!.

The problem with most Tribalistic Nigerians is the fact that they chase themselves...

You put up a comment, you would aswell state "watch the other group come in", "watch the flaties and afonjas troll the thread"...are you not indirectly calling for segregation?

And eventually when the opposition begins to troll, insults and non-chalant beheaviors starts up.

He worships like a born again christian in churches, he prays like devout muslim and he is also a pure traditionalist. He is confused! He is currently in London being paid to be seen like a wax museum whilst Ife is in turmoil. He is the least respected Oba...How can an Oba be taking selfie with the likes of Lil kesh.

No need for that. He isn't a visiting head of state.

The countries you mentioned don't have English as their lingua franca, we do.

Do you know How many minutes might be allowed for this interview slot? It'd be kinda silly to waste much time on interpreters when the interviewee is competent in speaking English.

These excuses you have has been around for over 100 years. This's why I said "it's time to come out of the box".

Vietnam has changed it's" official language" for French to Vietnamese.

Thailand has changed it's "official language" from English to Thai.

Malaysia has changed it's "official language" from English to Malay.

Indonesia has changed it's "official language" from English to Indonesian.

In 1362, England changed it's "official language" from French and Latin to English.

Only fools would maintain a status quo because it've been accepted for long. Again, it's time to come out of the box.

I love This OBA

Nice interview. But I wish he had worn a beautifully embroidered Aso-Oke, with his beaded crown. He would have looked more resplendent. undecided All this white lace, chiffon & white satin, that he and his Olori seem to prefer, just does not showcase the regal beauty of the traditional royal attire expected from custodians of the royal stool. sad

The official language in Yorubaland should be Yoruba. The official language in Igboland should be Igbo. e.t.c.

And the official language of the Federal Government would be what? Before you say "all three of the above", you need to realize that each zone has multiple distinct languages. E.g. there are actually multiple distinct dialects of Yoruba, such that four men from Ondo, Ijebu, Owo and Akoko would not understand themselves.

It's good to think out of the box, but don't jump to conclusions (in this case, that this is a trivial problem).

The one and only authentic King in Nigeria.

So the Alake of Egbaland, Alaafin of Oyo, Oba of Lagos, Oba of Benin, Sultan of Sokoto, Emir of Kano etc are not authentic Kings?

Royalty do not grant interviews, especially in a foreign land.

I hope he was received by the Queen of the UK when he visited the UK and I hope she reciprocates the visit.
