I respect African culture, but i think the major problem in Nigeria and other parts of Nigeria are laws like this..... |

having read some comments here, I can now see that benins carry their culture on their heads like their hair. Yorubas say; bi a se bi eru, la bi oba. what's good for the goose is good for the gander. rubbish monarchy! the most painful thing is that these people don't like change, they'll tell you it's been like that for so long. how can these people keep accepting a wrong thing all because of culture? |

ogbonti: Mr man, you better park well or you will soon know that your benin king whom you worship is no power compared to the power of the Almighty. i am from Edo but there are some aspects of culture that belong solely in the history books. A people should not continue to practice a culture just for the sake of it! Which of your Benin kings has ever defeated death? Which one can come out today and spread his wings and fly? When the white man came, why did the Oba not defeat him? Was it not the same Oba who later ran to greet the Queen of England, who was the very person who sacked his kingdom? Come out of bondage and be free! |

Mandynews:You're a very senseless idi0t, a worthless bestial entity that shouldn't be found among humans. A barking dog in a human body. What fanatical devotion to outdated traditions. Animals like you have no business living in a civilized world. You should go back to the cave where you belong, you son of a thousand sem£n. You're a creature of the shadow, ruled by your fears and irrational, bestial impulses. Scum like you have no place in a human society. Just imagine the hate-filled message! What nonsense! People like this are a curse on humanity. Go to hell! |

This is why Africa is so so backwards ehn, fear they catch me say Nigeria might not develop much more than it is today. How can an oba or his foolish subjects if you ask me, tell anybody when to bury or celebrate. Nothing works in this country only mouth. What is the difference between them and islam doctrine. They say the oba covers his mouth because everything he says is law. Can you imagine? A non elected person. That's why LGAs do nothing because they can hide behind oba excuses. It is time to ban all this trash and go all out for collective progress or else we are all doomed. An unintelligent country that's why everything is hard. Federal government and all agencies, don't give any naira or kobo of our states or national money in any form to these obas, sultans, ezes, igwes, etc No gift cars, lands, or nothing. Rubbish. Baba God, I wan live this life much longer in good health and prosperity in every way. When I leave this earth, remind angel Gabriel and others in charge of allocating people, say I dun do my own share of suffer. Even I no suppose go hell again, because naija na hell with many demons in human forms, but with fried brains. I dun dey suspect your angels if dem dey pay attention to your details because naija and Africa no dey follow for their destinations. No progess, no development, nothing only mediocre effects. Probe them abeg. |

JuanDeDios: Why are you generating wrinkles over this matter.. You can't just sit in you house and completely under-estimate the powers possessed by all Nigerian King(small and big) as long as the state laws recognized them.. You can't with the wave of hand, wish away their powers.. No one is forcing you to obey them but, if you can't obey them stay away from them and endeavour to be far away anytime they come around.. Even your spirit would be moved at their sight.. I am more stubborn than you on issue of who respect is due.. But Nigerian kings are HARMLESS and there is this certain INNER peace you feel when you are around one.. |

ogbonti:What a funny post. Thousands of those who shaved their heads died before they reached the age of 30,40...not to mention the golden age of 70. Likewise thousands of those who did not shave their heads lived far beyond 70yo. Etim Inyang died a grand old man and outlived Oba Erediauwa,and he retired honorably after attaining the maximum years of service. |

PatAkpos:The decree is tied to benin alone. in d olden days people usually migrated from beni when an oba or his son dies due to d heavy customary restriction, oba eware i was notorious in that regard, he caused whole scale migration and dispersed benin people leading to d formation of new tribes. |

Something must be wrong with you. Because you do not respect your Oba, does it mean others should not? People in Benin City know this rule. However, this family, being Binis were aware but were misled. Did you hear the family protest? No. Why not learn by respecting people? Even the government in Edo State, as an institution, respect the Oba of Benin. You are now complaining of being abused when you did not waste time in insulting the Oba. mrvitalis: |

CACAWA: K sir let me school u. Its obviously clear that u are not a bini or even close to the kingdom. The oba does not go to church, what u call church is called holy Aruosa, headed by A chief priest with 6 wives. Holy Aruosa does not use the bible, they don't sing Gospel songs they believe in Oghodua and olokun, the don't say halluyah, they sacrifice animals to deities. So pls the oba attend A modern shrine not a church. My two cents. |
