And this Oba of Lagos doesn't even know that he is suppose to stand up before Oni Of Ife because in respect,Oni Of Ife beats his hands down.


He cant try that to Oba Of Benin else,he go banish am from Lagos and Nigeria

Looool. But really, those tryin to side with the ooni shld knw dat oba eko has no allegiance with ife kingdom, eko recognises more with benin and more often dan not, dey try to sound like a sovereign kingdom. So oba eko can behave anyhow.

the Ooni is the spiritual head of yoruba land, the Alaafin is the emperor in yoruba land.

get the facts ppl
I agreed with spiritual head because even when Oyo empire was existing,it is legally prohibited for them to invade Ife territory where Apomu town belong.Infact,Oyo empire started to become weak because they invaded the town of Apomu under Ile-Ife.

There is difference between Oyo empire and yorubaland.Oyo empire(largest)existed within yorubaland,along other empires like Ife.So,when Oyo empire was existing Alaafin was the the emperor of the empire not yorubaland while Ooni was and is the spiritual head of all the empires in yorubaland.After the fall of Oyo empire as the largest Ibadan rose as the largest empire in the land,the reason why Olubadn doesn't recognise Alaafin as his superior!!.

Presently yoruba has no single political headquarters because each former empires Oyo,Ibadan(succeeding powerful empire to Oyo),Egba,Lagos(oyo empire didnt stretch to lagos) etc will want to lay claim to it.However,no controversy about the fact that Ooni of Ife is the spiritual head while ile -ife the spiritual capital.

YOU STUDY THE PAST TO UNDERSTAND THE PRESENT.

Trade caution my dear, because, no one know the reason OBA OF LAGOS did such although there is no smoke without fire. It can't be ordinary for the OBA OF LAGOS to have been bittered in his HEART. I am tempted to believe, ILE IFE CRISIS could be one of the reason, if a Yoruba king was arrested at ILE IFE by DSS for not directly involved in a fight between YORUBAS and HAUSAS . Ooni's voice is too diplomatic over this issue. OONI isn't outspoken as he ought to be. No Emir or any Islamic leader as such can be arrested for crime committed in his jurisdiction without him being participant. It is totally despicable that it is happening in a era of a man, Yoruba massively voted in as President. And up till now, no known Fulani herdsmen marceneries have been arrested or jailed as need be. It seem OONI OGUNWUSI doesn't know his role as SUPREME KING OF YORUBA. Perhaps, OBA of LAGOS isn't happy about his role in the issue at ILE IFE. It baffles me to see or bring out any sane reason, OBA OF LAGOS, will do such a thing without any concrete reason. OOni need set up and be more proactive to his calling. So, was the other time, OONI went to LONDON to collect tithe or offering in a church. This is totally out of BOUND for him. OONI can bow to GOD but collection of offering or tithe doesn't MEAN OONI IS HUMBLE. Infact ,money is the root of all Evil. However, it may be another issue but I truly don't expect such attitude from OBA OF LAGOS is outrightly unacceptable in YORUBA LAND irrespective of OONI's action in recent times.

Wow, this is a new angle to the story. A possibility. I never thought about it that way.

Take it from me as someone who has lived both in the north and west: Yoruba "respect" is largely SUPERFICIAL. When u go to the North, u will see RESPECT that isn't acted but is commanded. As for the east/igbo's, I have nothing to say.

Can anyone please enlighten me on that?
Re: Oba Of Lagos Refuses To Shake Ooni Of Ife (video) by arsyga: 9:58am On Apr 26, 2017
I guess is anger/action is as a result of his non inclusion in Ooni's royal visit to notables kingdoms.

His act according to information available is appalling and irresponsible.

A video in which the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu refused to shake the hands of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja II has emerged and currently trending on social media.

The video shows the Ooni walking in and exchanging pleasantries, when it was time to greet the Oba of Lagos who was putting on a dark sun glass, he was snubbed.

what is wrong with this old man, why humiliating him like that in public ? whatever their grievance why cant they just sort it out behind closed door. i smell jealousy. If i was oni i will never greet him again who does he think he is ? I think he was expecting Oni to prostrate for him cuz he is older

Oba of Lagos is very sick, He is suffering from JEALOUSYTIASIS. Please he needs a doctor urgently.
To Ooni of Ife, sorry some people are taking your humility for granted, some old men have refused to get matured, Don't mind them Jare. As far as am concerned, this Oba of Lagos did not disgrace Ooni of Ife, He disgraced himself by publicly displaying his arrogance and immaturity.

This OBA of lagos is so Classless and un diplomatic. His behaviour most of the time doesn't show that he is enlightened. If he can be acting like this in public, I wonder how he behaves in his palace. Always wearing some stupid dark shades looking and an armed robber.

What is the difference between the average Policeman and an armed robber?

What is wrong with this old man called Oba of Lagos. What is even the meaning of the title "Oba of Lagos" formerly Eleko of Eko. The Oba of about two or three streets in Lagos Island . It was politics that made the title to be changed to Oba of Lagos. He is no match for the Ooni and no where near him. Is it class, position and recognition. Ooni is the most supreme ruler in Yorubaland. I think Oba Akiolu is jealous of him because he is younger and ocuupied such position. Prototocol demands that Oba of Lagos should remain standing whenever Ooni arrives in any occassion in which the Oba is present. The Oba is a disgrace.

I have wondered too. But the reality is that OONI OGUNWUSI isn't seeing his dreaded position as the Supreme king in Yoruba land. There is more that meet the eyes. I am yet to see any reason to justify OBA OF LAGOS action. Many of these kings knows many things that are hidden from the public . It may sound really funny but it hurt someone like me deeply seeing the picture. And I am doubtful if any natural problem has ever brewed between them. OBA AKIOLU himself knows the implication of these things. ALL YORUBA KINGS ARE YORUBA TRADITIONALIST irrespective of other religion being professed. Can't OONI CALL OSINBAJO TO ORDER? It is indeed an eye opener.

With all due respect: abeg go and sit down. This makes the Oba of Lagos look petty and petulant. If he wanted to embarrass the Ooni, he failed. He's the one looking like an appendage.
I am comfortably sat with no offense nor sentiment attached to the issue. Have you for once thought about the eternal damning of OONI OGUNWUSI's personality ? OBA AKIOLU may have done something beyond his grip. But something is outrightly wrong. Ask yourself,is some certain things done by OONI right? I AM MORE BITTERED THAN YOU BUT THE DEED HAD BEEN DONE. I am very emotional about this but I consider all reason before justification. Despite the fact that OBA AKIOLU blundered,the dent has been made. If you think, OBA AKIOLU fooled himself, it is better, you have a rethink because OBA AKIOLU DISGRACED ALL YORUBAS

Bro, this your assumption is flawed
Assumption isn't what I postulated because I made reference to certain things OONI OGUNWUSI did in London, which need adjustment and remain as fact. Irrespective of the flaw that you see, which is POSSIBLE, with due respect to your opinion. Whether it is an assumption or a reality the reason for this issue will soon come out in one way or the other to public domain. And when it did come out, kindly do me a favour of informing my school of thought on the reason. My reason for this is because I am a humble Learner.

Oba of lagos is showing that his allegiance lies to benin not yoruba nation.

Stop dropping shit online . I don't think that's the reason he acted that way . He is the main person that facilitated the move for Lagos to join and be part of ownership of Odua investments, a Yoruba nation company ( property).
