ziddy: I know this. However it was in the 19th century, not 18th; 1840s to be precise. I'm beginning to think people misconstrued my original post. My original post was to the Bini people saying Akiolu is answerable to the Oba of Benin rather than the Ooni forgetting that the Oba of Lagos --and the throne-- is Yoruba. |

Vorpal: oba of Lagos has no place in history. That title is a post colonial one and it is weightless in the comity of Obas. The Eleko of Eko was a mere chief to the Oba of Benin. Even as at 1969, no yoruba king used the title-Oba. It was exclusive reserve for the emperor of the Benin empire. Oba in Benin language means emperor. Was Lagos an empire ? where is oba of Lagos coming from? 1 Like |

perryy: I am not a Lagosian ,neither of their royal blood. So questions are best directed at one/them. |

That retired police man is not the king of Lagos in its entirety as a point of correction. He is the king of Lagos island not even Eti osa, Badagry, Epe, etc. What do you expect of a typical Nigerian policeman?.From all fellers, he is an habitual arogant man, it is not his first time of insulting people that are millions of miles ahead of him considering achievements and importance. How can a small boy because he is the son of Tinubu be playing with the chin of oba of Lagos island. This has shown that he lacks self respect. He has shook hands with lesser people now his defense is this is how they greet in Lagos. Even his countenance in the vedeo depicts he is not happy with the young man as he turned away his face scornfully. What lesson is the monarch teaching. For me he is very inconsistent concerning the philosophy he preaches in his defense that he did not snub the Ooni. Go and xray this man independently in Lagos island concerning his interpersonal relationship, you will not be surprised of his attitude towards the Ooni. It's unfortunate that those that should come out strongly against that show of disgrace on Yoruba tradition has not done enough. |

Lucasbalo:Please could you confirm that the Obas of Lagos (especially those from the Ologun Kutere house) prior to Oba Akintoye were buried in Benin. I see this in many online articles and books. I would like to know if this was fact as I am yet to see any alternative historical account except nairaland comments to the contrary. |

ziddy:A benin man just confirmed this. Says there was a matriachial ascension somewhere which took out the Benin patri-lineage in the Lagos throne succession. So Erelu Kuti was benin right? |

monex: Of Benin ancestry, yes. perryy: Even less than a chief. The so-called Eleko was a garrison commander without the slightest hint of blue in his veins. The post morphed into Obaship no thanks to the Portuguese & later the British who traded in slaves via the Lagos settlement. |
