Mologi: Dont mind them. It is basically borne out of "over-sabi" ignorance". The tend to mix Culture and Religion together, .....interwined but not exactly the same. Culturally, Oduduwa is his Progenitor Spiritually, Jehovah God (the father), is his heavenly father.... just as it is for everyone, including Jesus himself. Its a take it or leave it situation.

Zico5: Colonial mentality and mental slavery on full display. The Ooni is a custodian of not just the Yoruba culture but Yoruba traditional religion. Now I am not a practisioner of the local religion but neither am I a King and a custodian. There are traditional rights (sacrifices) which you must perform DAILY as an Ooni, from what I know there is only 1 day in the year where this is not done in Ife. these practises are in conflict with Christian teaching. Most importantly as the custodian is an abomination to bow before another you bring shame and insult to the entire race. You cannot do both.....if you can't abandon the white man's religion don't aspire to be an Ooni. Understand the meaning of his full title, Oonirisa......ooni (1st or head) + orisa (deity) ..........it is not by force to be Ooni. Anyone familiar with the historical rivalry between the Ooni and Alaafin knows that the Oyo empire (or was it Ila) was established because the Oranmiyan the natural heir to the Ife throne (who was a warrior) turned it down because he was not interested in being an Ifa priest and the daily practises i.e sacrifices that come with the office..the OOni is actually a yoruba religious priest and so went on to establish the Oyo empire and that is the origins of the rivalry between the Alaafin and the Ooni over supremacy. The point of this compressed journey in history is that the Ooni is actually a traditional priest and head of the yoruba religion and so cannot worship or bow down before another. "After the death of Oduduwa his son, Oranmiyan was invited to take over the job of his father, which was primarily ritual and voodoo, as well as traditional ruler of Ile Ife. Oranmiyan refused because he had succeeded in building an economically viable place at Oyo Ile with administratively sound method of government around the Oyomesi council in chief and it would be degrading to leave this and move to Ile Ife to be involved in daily ritual sacrifices." http://www.edo-nation.net/sowunmi1.htm Let's be clear the OOni is a religious title, read the history of Yorubal and Ife. You say you are custodian of Yoruba religion and you go and bow to another religion, will the Pope bow down before him and worship Olodumare. Ifa is a religion and the Oni is the Ifa equivalent of the Pope in christianity!! There is a reason why the Kingmakers consult the Ifa and not Pastor Adeboye or the Pope when producing the next Ooni. Africans are really messed up!!!! 10 Likes 3 Shares |

eagleonearth: The laugh is on you. When was the last time a Jew, a Jewish Rabbi, a custodian of Hebrew culture and religion, acknowledged the lordship of your Christ? What does the Ooni Of Ife , a Yoruba sovereign, an African, know about Hebrew mythology that the Rabbi's don't know yet ? What privileged information does he have that the Jewish Rabbi's do not know about the myth of Christ ? Africans, brainfxxed since AD1800. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

cktheluckyman: They say when you control a man's mind you control the man, The white man left Africa knowing the damage had been done and they would control us forever with their religion. Free yourself from mental slavery, your own ways are stupid and archaic but the whitemans ways which have existed from centuries and which they refuse to abandon is modern and progressive.....and you wonder why Africa, the only continent that has adopted a religion imposed on it is the only continent still in darkness. if you want to practise Islam or Christianity fine but it's no more a legitimate religion that the local religions of Africa. 2 Likes |

The Ooni is just confused. This was immediately after he returned from his evagilism in the US. He has returned to bowing down for ifa again.lol. He has to catch up with all the traditional sacrifices he didnt carry out while away. how can yoj serve God and Mammon at the same time the bible is totally against it...lol
