Can any of all the kings you listed be publicly disgraced the way Oba of Lagos disgraced your hornyofife?
King that bows down to a mere senate president, is that one king?


In the first place,who first class help when he commands no Respect?

Who told you he commands no respect, he is just a naturally humble person and respect elders even if the stool in which he sits on is well respected.

It is a known fact Igbo had no Empire Pre-colonial rule the Obi stool is relatively younger than some of these other Kings like Ooni,Alaafin and Oba of Benin that have existed as far back as before Christ.

Stop been Jealous, these issues are known facts.

So why is he hardly mentioned in the same vein as Ọba of Benin, Alaafin, Sultan, Emir, Ooni. Your obi is just an eastern baale



Before 1914, there was no king in the whole of eastern Nigeria. It was a republican setting with the ofalla or ogbuefi title holders, given to men who made wealth and are respected, these men were leaders of council of elders but NOT KINGS.... NEW Igbo Kingdoms were created there to experiment indirect rule of the British colonialists using traditional rulers to collect taxes, it worked in the north and west because they had functioning kings, but it failed in the east because the new “emergency Kings” had no traditional powers or cultural backbone to effect taxation, that was one of the reasons they had the Aba women riot of 1929, go read your history... today, Igbos, are using nollywood to propagate falsehoods of an igwe and his ancestors that never existed before 1914 grin

How can Obi of Onitsha be the richest, have you heard of Obateru Akinruntan(Obat Oil), the Olugbo of Ugbo in ilaje town in Ondo state, he has the largest Petroleum tank farm in Africa.

Better learn and do research before making stupid claims.

First of all Obi of Onitsha is not even a First Class king.
Secondly, I don't think he is richer than Ooni of Ife and Oba of Benin. Ooni of Ife is one of the biggest real estate player in the country.

Many Monarch in the Oil producing communities like Obateru are way richer than the Obi of Onitsha.

Some people are not worth quoting bro. U are just massaging his ego by replying him.

Empire doesn't mean civilization....

In real sense, what ever empire the yorubas had was under the Benin empire....


In the ancient map of Africa, there was karnem Bornu, Benin and Biafra, where was Oyo or Ife.

There was even Dahomey on the map....

hornyofife:


Many of you just talk ignorantly, as for Obi of onitsha's wealth, I cant say much but I can assure you he is one of the most educated monarchs if not the most read...secondly he is also an oil merchant and one of board members of orient petroleum building a refinery in Aguleri in Anambra state, only that he doesn't show off like others....

Again who knows ObAt oil in the Southeast let alone south south and in the north....even in the south west, most of his filling stations are in Ondo state his home state...they are not wide spread..and his oil tank farm(storage) in Lagos is not even quarter that of Ifeanyi Uba which also had a jetty.

As for HornyofIfe .....like my handle, i know the palace very well cos am close to it...I can tell many things you don't know about kabiyesi, but for the respect I have for the family, I will let it die...but don't believe everything you read about him,he has many dark sides you don't want to hear especially, as regards scamming people....the guy is broke just in case you like to know..even his rolls royes was given to him....

In case you like to know also, many Ife sons and daughters only, regard and respect his stool and not him as a person...because they accuse him of defrauding people of their land and money and politicing the stool....

there is a project in Ife where monies(initial down Payment) were collected from people, with the hope of developing mid size houses along Ede road behind parakin ile ife, and those who paid will have their homes on completion and complete their payment subseqently, but till today, foundation for the houses have not even started, peoples monies have all gone and because of his stool, they cannot question him, they all go back the their rooms to nag in regret..

Rather, he use this stool to collect peoples land to build a resort..in his name.(though some say, there is a certain size of land always reserved for the crown)

His real estate firm is not one of the biggest in Lagos not to talk of the country and he is not the sole owner....Nairaland has done a lot in dishing out false hypes mostly by ignorant afonjas who cant even question the decisions of their local government officials, let alone the lies of your so called traditional rulers.....

if he truly was a real estate don like you said, why was his father living in a regular house in eleyele before he became king and he never had a house of his own until the mansion he just built recently in parakin?

Even all through the time he was contesting for his Ooniship, he stayed in conference center inside OAU.

am sure you know kabiyesi still has a case of defrauding the previous Ooni hanging on his neck...
Re: Oba Of Benin, Ewuare Visits Osinbajo (Photos) by wristbangle: 12:16pm On Nov 25, 2017
Here we go again comparing Obi of Onitsha to Ooni of Ife or Obat as regards wealth.

In Nigeria as a whole he is not First Class king, yes he is the most respected from the SE region but.

Oba of Benin,Sultan of Sokoto,Ooni of Ife,Alaafin of Oyo,Emir of Kano,Emir of Bornu.

These are the recognized First Class kings in Nigeria,i am sorry if Obi is not there,this is not about sentiments it is a fact.


It is called Shehu of Bornu... you are very correct with this list!

Obi of onitsha, Eze Eri and some igbo traditional institutions in Anioma region of igbo land are older than whatever time of thought for the creation of England....not to talk of the coming of the colonial masters....
