The narrator's Yoruba is so horrible that I almost puked. This is mediocrity at its peak and it is very disrespectful to release this kind of content when you can get a Yoruba speaker to do the narration for you.

Every Yoruba word pronunced in the video is really awful. Really really awful and disgraceful mis-pronunciation for such a sacred Yoruba event .

The Yoruba content creators must step up for this kind of reporting and save us native speakers from this kind of irritating embarrassment to our ears.Check my signature for free stuffs!

I equally stopped listening at a point. It was so uninteresting to listen to

Pete Edochie is an Ozor in Igbo land which is a high title in Igbo land, he can’t bow to your ooni because he himself is a titled man. And you Yoruba tribal bigots always trying to make everything about your tribe are disgusting
Disgusting man called Westchester, your kings were kneeling down for Queen Elizabeth in 1960. So before you talk rubbish say you and ya ancestors are disgusting, grow sense to history time.
There's a difference btw king meets king and ordinary chief meet chief. If your chiefs are equal to kings in ya land, no problem. An ordinary primary school boy should equate Edochie in Yorubaland. Ordinary Kanayo-Kanayo dey drag Edochie balls few days ago that he senior am for film.
It's obvious you guys lacked respect from the time when boys like you wake their parents up with kicks to present times when cartoon chiefs in Nollywood like Edochie that can't talk sense to his rabid dick boy show disrespect!

The great Ibo leap forward began from the 1920s up till 1945.

That pic is from Ibo land and the date was sometime in early 1920s.

At the time of the ABA riots , Christianity had already spread wide and far leading to those women wearing wrapper and blouse tops.


Chinue Achebe wrote about this so-called Great Ibo leap.

there's no way they would have been naked and illiterate then under 9 years they organise a riot well dressed and even taking picturesit doesn't make sense. theses are British propaganda spread to make the black race look stupid. That pics would definitely have been in the 18th or 17th century. don't forget that in the 19th century people like King jaja of opobo were already well dressed and wealthy and had travelled the world. that pics is probably a pre-slavery era. However post your references let's confirm that this is not beer parlor talk.

A true king that Pet Edochie shook his hands like a mare common man

To us Yoruba people, Pete Edochie is a man that deserves big recognition. I believe the Ooni knows that too. Ooni will therefore give Pete the recognition he deserves. Pete Edochie is also not a Yoruba man and the Ooni can't and won't make attempt to force him to prostrate for him. Respect should be earned, not forced.

Common sense ought to be common but unfortunately no more common to people like you.

Historically, it is known that there is a strong relationship between the sacred Aare crown and the Ogun deity, the god of iron, due to the crown’s iron component. The crown must be brought before the Ogun deity at the Okemogun shrine during the annual Olojo festival celebration in Ile Ife.

I visited Ìfẹ on Friday...that Ọba should try and use his influence to development Ìfẹ. Even the road into that town is worse.

According to Ifa oral tradition, corroborated by a chief priest of the Aare crown, the crown is believed to attract people to itself when the Ooni wears it.

During the Olojo festival, people often troop out to behold the crown and on sighting it, they offer prayers because the presence of the sacred crown symbolises peace, unity, blessing and prosperity
