He should learn from oba of Benin instead of roaming about the street begging for money. That's what you get when you give royalty to pigs, they don't know how to compose themselves.

obaship or ooni tittle is not all about who is wealthy or not,it has to be whom the Oracle chose,he did not lobby for it,he was into property a.and stuffs before he became oba,with his pal oba elegushi ,so where did you hear your own story from,that he sell aircraft parts

He was their boy, he wasn't in the same class with Oba Elegushi, he was in charge of most of their property and manage it for em. And who told you he was chosen by the oracle? Or maybe you mean the oracle that collected 'Black Pajero Jeep'. He bribed his way to became the King

You want to compare Ooni of Ife wealth to that of Obi of Onitsha? Academically and wealthwise, Obi of Onitsha is ahead of all the traditional rulers in the whole of west Africa... check it yourself.

You are insane for calling the Oni pig.

Can you compare the Queen or king of England how he lived in his 30s or 50s to now?

The On I is a young guy in his 30s and needs to move around to know his terrain well and also meet old Otunbas like the one above.

Will he stay in his palace to know everything and be enlightened.

Sense fall on you.

Can queen or king of England move around the way they use to 40 years ago. ?

Lol just like Obi of Onitsha, like many other drug dealers, bribed his way to the thrown.

Ooni was chosen by the oracle. Yorubas are more civilized than Ibos in this aspect.

Impressive especially when one notes that he recently became the Ooni just of recent. Surely, his kingship is bringing good dividends for his people which I believe is the ultimate.
What sense does it make locking urself up in ur palace and adding no economic value to ur subjects?
If Oonis visit to one of Nigerians billionaires will bring more dividends to his subjects, who cares what hopeless outsiders think.

Who is the real pig if not you and your ancestors... Did the Ooni just wake and walk down to meet the man? For your information, it was based on invitation. We have a humble man as the custodian of our tradition and we ain't complaining. What's the concern of a bastard?

Your comment shows you don't live in Ife. make research and ask people who live there about who's gonna be king tussle and stop listening to just a mere say

Life is in stages, he might be above me in all aspect of life today but absolutely I will surely be above him some day. Where was he during the time of Oba Aderemi and Oba Sijuade? He's not in any way close to their suceess

Thanks for sharing

By the way, does Otunba Olasubomi Balogun have business memoirs?

He could be a better role model here than Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk.


He doesnt have one. He made his money the old fashion way he stole it. Inquire how much FCMB loaned him and how much he has paid back. Most Nigerians bank owner looks at depositor money as their money. No oversight.

Am sure u said ds out of ignorance. This is 21st century which an Oba must not just be sitting in d 4 corners of his abode ditching out instructions to his subjects. He must go out and try to look for investors to his town and community to better there lives.

Phuck you and your Oba of Benin. Oba of benin is more like a mannequin. He is caged and has no freedom to move around. You oba is more like a slave. Ooni of Ife is the real deal.

Don't know how you got your "facts" (maybe you have an unofficial biography)

What of the story of how he STARTED?

Don't you think THAT will be more inspiring than success stories from other climes?
