thewarrior72:So there are only two religions in the world. What happened to traditional religion. What happened to Judaism, Buddha, Hindu e.t.c your brain needs formatting. I don't even know why some people are using panadol for another man's headache. |

Funny tradition. Just like 8years ago.my family struggle with this so called tradition. Smtimes man take decision not considering the consequences. Even if the said ruler gave his life to christ.he will still be treated alike.but the sons were still luck to see his face @ the London hosiptal.but am glad prove them wrong of their 12midnite burial same day.RIP Oba Sijuade 1 Like |

Are other tribes opening mouth to talk here? Is it because in this case the Abobaku ran away that we are hearing the gist? Abegi! When kings in your towns die what do you think all those curfews are for? How many of you here has watched a royal being buried? Abeg leave story. Royalty in Africa is very very very very dirty business. The kinds of things these royals and their chiefs do periodically ehn? You will coil! The King's death is the zenith of all. You just cannot imagine! As for those saying the Oba is now a Christian. Leave that thing. No pastor can do nada. The Oba is a public property. He belongs to his people. I don't even think an Oba or any King can even decide to step down. Once you've been chosen by the oracle, you are the King whether you like it or not, if you no like am, then die. 1 Like |

In some traditions, immediately the first son of the King is born, the King and the son will never see each other again and the son will only come to the place when the father is dead to take over the throne. Now the Ife chiefs said the heart of the past Ooni will not be fed to the new Ooni and it is the heart of animal that they will feed to the new Ooni, I totally disagree with this. How come the burial of the Ooni is full of mysteries? Even our Lord Jesus, his death and burial wasn't in secrecy. |

saxywale:Yea there are many regions, even in my enclave, however, no one infringes on anyones right of free movement. Your mundane, barbaric, archaic & loathsome religion is nothing but evil & cantencherous & should be done away as fast as possible. Any religion that fails to evolve or adapt to modernity is a hindrance to the progress of its adherents & the society at large. And here comes my sincere question to u, Where then lies the purported SOPHISTICATION of your tribe if such barbaric traditions shrouded in secrecy is still practiced till this age? |

SmartMugu: How has your "non-barbaric" culture improved your life ? Your post says a lot about your thinking process, though I don't expect a person with no identity such as yo to think differently. The man said Ooni wasn't dead and he was right at that particular point in time because he wasn't authorized to announce the death of ooni. Whether you like it or not the burial rites will proceed and if you have any evidence of atrocities please report to the authorities. |

well having read all d comments....let me shed some light to the darkness. I'll only shed light to the burial stuff of the ooni...the ooni as said us the custodian of the Yoruba heritage as like life which he commands from is the cradle of the Yoruba race. the death of the ooni once it happens becomes the property of the pro cult and the community at large... it is not asif no one could actually see the remains of the ooni...they can but once the rites have begun they can't anymore because of its barbaric nature. if anyone however sees the process it would go viral and would scare pple away from being the next ooni because you can never imagine such thing done to your body. that they don't mutilate them is a total fallacy... what do you expect them to tell you?? they will outrightly tell you NO because of the secrecy it entails....and if anyone by accident sees them during the process not being an initiate the penalty is death. I'll rest at this point. Source: Don't ask me...but the info is with high credibility. 1 Like |

[quote author=Chiefpriest1 post=36970570]And the Abobaku finally escaped sha! Lol. I am not from Ife, but I would politely turn down this oba's traditional stool if I was offered. I like the simple and uncomplicated things of life. No oro, no isoro,no seven-day curfew, no abobaku, no retinue of wives and no barring my children from my burial.[/quoteThe post of oba is not difficult at all. it is we the africans that made it difficult for ourselves. because a lot of africans our idols worshippers and they dont know God. when u are not in christ, then u are in crises. |

It was a charade. No burial took place. Ooni must be buried with abobaku. Abobaku can run but he can't hide. |

Nice1. Meanwhile, a cleric, Evangelist Toluwase Akeredolu, had disputed insinuations that Sijuwade, as a prominent monarch, was in the cult. Akeredolu had said that Oba Sijuwade died as a born-again Christian. Akeredolu said this on July 29 after the transition of the monarch was announced by the media. The cleric, an evangelist with the Christ Apostolic Church, said the monarch had few weeks before his transition, confessed all his sins to God after he preached the gospel of Jesus Christ to him. Akeredolu said he was privileged to have ministered to the monarch few weeks before his death. He said, “Oba Sijuwade told the congregation at the last crusade we organised in Ile-Ife that he had forsaken sins and accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and personal saviour. He confessed publicly that he would live the rest of his life to serve the Almighty God. “During the revival, Oba Sijuwade said he had committed the rest of his lifetime to Christ, the saviour of all and had sung the popular song ‘All to Jesus, I surrender.’” It will be recalled that the late monarch dropped the title of ‘Oluaye’ (owner of the universe) in 2010 in deference to the Almighty God.” |

NO APOLOGIES AS THIS IS HIGHLY SPIRITUAL AND FOR THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND THE SPIRITUAL NOT FOR I KNOW HOW TO TALK PEOPLE: where is the bloody prophet liar kasali muhideen who claimed ooni knocked at his door ?so why did he not play a prominent role at the burial at least to pray and lead ooni of ife into the heaven that issued him a certificate of heaven?ok look at the Very Rev. Olusola Akanbi who does not know that reverend is the name of God of justice only which means HOLY is he holy and he and his likes answer the name why? let him see psalm 111,9 and he is one that is telling people to be born again at the burial is he born again?how come Very Rev. Olusola Akanbi surface in a place for burial and Very Rev. Olusola Akanbi cannot see the corpse of the person he is claiming to be praying for and you are THERE TALKING ABOUT JESUSCHRIST WHO TOLD YOU that JESUSCHRIST hears such prayers? enough of this nonsense about pastors and prophets of this world decieving spiritually ignorant humanbeigns up and down and no wonder God said pastors have destroyed my vineyard jeremiah 12,10 and jeremiah 5,21-22 and thats why we call them CHAMELEONS (NDI ABALI) 1 Like |
