Image of the Recaptured Abobaku, the man to be killed alongside the Oni of Ife in the 21st century.

The Abobaku (meaning one who dies with the king) in Yoruba culture is a person that is appointed upon a king’s coronation. He is expected to be buried with the king when he eventually dies. The Oba would be buried with him.
The Abobaku is a title and whoever that is given that title would enjoy the same privilege with the monarch and live big just like the Oba. Once the monarch is dead, he must die too and they would be buried together.

The question on the lips of every well meaning Nigerians is since Yoruba has the highest number of high profile pastors in Nigeria, they also claim to have the highest number of literates and professor. what are they saying about this Evil Tradition?

One factor stood out here; the traditional practitioners do not pretend rather they uphold their 'faith' and allow the church to those who also profess Christianity unlike others where the Kings are also 'Pastors'.

these stupid bunch of people called Yorubas are pulling Nigeria back.

When a whole Ojukwu died, not even a mosquito was required to die with him. And now one stupid polygamous, useless king died syou now require somebody to die with him. I believe it was the fear of dying along some useless king that made their Awo to drink rat poison and die. Useless tribe, useless people.

I am Igbo Goat.

Please no insults. I just stated the obvious that sense is lacking with a particular tribe that wanted to cut somebody head to put inside coffin with another man that they did not born him with.
