Omo N’Oba finally visits his ancestral home as per his final conoration rights of passage... cool
It is a shame that Edos deny their kings origin....
But this finally puts an end to the debate....

After how many years? Hide your face in shame bruh. Perhaps d Sultan palace and aso rock is also an ancestral home?

The heads of past Oba of Benin buried in Ile-Ife says it all. Don't argue at your own disadvantage.
Give it to those wise ancestors of the Yoruba who insisted that their son's descendants heads be buried in Ile-Ife,they knew that someday some smart Alec will attempt to twist the truth.
Have you ever heard of an Ooni visit the Oba of Benin? The respected Oba of Benin is even behind the Alaafin of Oyo in ranking.
Long live Yoruba land. Long live Nigeria.

To all those Ignorant people here who have come here to show their high level of ignorance well let me educate you all.

1. The Oba leaves his palace, His grandfather Oba Akenzuwa visited England. His own father Oba Erediauwa did a nationwide coronation thank you visit where he visited many palaces across Nigeria. This present Oba is doing just same. He has Visited Buhari, the Sultan and now he has visited the Ooni as i earlier predicted. His next visit would be to Onitsha and i expect some dundies to run here and run their mouth when that happens.

2. All coronation rights have ended and he isn't going to do any in Ife, please can you yorubas just focus on how to keep the emir of yorubaland from running his mouth and leave my King alone. At least the Ooni sharea the same state with the Emir of yorubaland.

3. We the Edo people want to use this medium to repeat ourselves, neither did we or our monarch come from Ife, we might have shared many historical ties which is what empires do as there is barely any tribe in southern Nigeria that doesn't have Benin in its folklore.

4. Oba gha to kpere......ise

no it is the other way round.
Oba of Benin title name is omo oba a Yoruba word for "son of a king" .he has come home to his ancestral land for his final coronation rites
(Modify) (Quote) (Report) (Shar
Please it isn't omo oba.. it is omo n'oba (omo nor oba) which simply means a child who is born king because the throne is hereditary. Bini's next two kings are already born, even though the people haven't got to see them.
That said people will continue to argue about this yoruba and Bini kingdom history. It isn't just worth all the stress.

The things that happen with these new era kings. I thought they said the Oba of Benin does not leave his palace.

Afam, the grandfather of this Oba visited UK and other places as an Oba. Father of this Oba visited all states of Nigeria in early 1980s as a thank you visit to all the monarchs who came to his coronation.

Oba used to lead troops to war in ancient times. There are drawings of Oba on horseback taking a ride around Benin complete with dwarfs, leopards, courtiers, drummers, flutists, etc. Drawings by visiting Europeans centuries ago.

What people misconstrue as Oba does not leave Palace is that he's not seen often unless the occasion is important. Certainly not visiting people's homes or birthday parties as a matter of routine.

For example periodically The Central Mosque in Benin invites the Oba to their service. To commemorate when post 1853 an Oba of Benin gave land to the son of Eleko Kosoko, Prince Olojo, after Kosoko was deposed as Oba of Lagos. A son of Kosoko went to Benin, his ancestor being from there.

He built the first Mosque in Benin on that land, on Lagos Street, Benin.

Where are those Easterners who said the Oba of Benin does not leave his palace and can never visit Oni of Ife? Your attention is needed here. Oniorisa is Oba Awon Oba. Kill yourself if you're not satisfied with it.

The topic clearly says 'Oba of Benin visits Ooni of Ife'

Why are you dragging Easterners to this? How does this in any way affect Easterners?

What really is your problem?
