So because she is white.. he is smiling soo sheepishly??

When will black people wake the hell up.. they are not better; they only applied their brains which we have in abundance!
. U think the Oba is myopic, dude the "guy' is well travelled. The white lady must have done the bowing in the most awkward way ever. Who wouldn't laugh at the attempt!

Going by the pics one is inclined to wonder ' abi this Oba na Allah'

The newly installed Benin monarch, Oba Ewuare II, was all smiles as he was paid homage to by a white woman at his palace in Edo state. The woman prostrated before the happy Oba -to the delight of the crowd present. See pictures below;

Oba of Benin is one of the most respected and influential traditional rulers.

Oba Ewuare, then as Crown Prince Eheneden, an accomplished diplomat, British Ivy League educated, was Nigeria's Ambassador to Angola, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Italy for almost 20 years of his life. It is rumored he was in a relationship or married to a pretty white lady for almost 2 decade while serving overseas, (I CANT SUBSTANTIATE THIS CLAIM THOUGH) so he is very comfortable with white people around him. That was why a lot of white people came to his coronation. These are his normal everyday friends from Europe. PUT yourself in his Position, this woman may not have stepped into Africa all her life and could be a family friend to the Oba when he was in Europe. For him to now see her wearing BINI clothes, travelled all the way from Europe to Benin to witness his coronation, bowing down in reverence to him, when a few years ago or so, they hung out together as buddies in Europe, then trying to use that european accent to attempt saying "OBA GHA TO KPERE".. maybe she tried and said it perfectly well, could be an overwhelming experience... so he smiled, like every normal human being would, while remembering everything and making a good friend feel welcomed in his domain...AND THE afonjas and Igbos are angry?? PLEASE EXCUSE ME, this una beef with Ogidigan II no be here ooooo undecided

as for OBA Teeth,

that happens only at some moments during his coronation...... and some special days during Igue festival. It is like one saying the Oba must wear his bead robe everyday.... nah, at special moments during a special occasion, he has to cover his mouth. i hope that is clear!

you insulted yourself first, because ONLY a dead person will NEVER SMILE AND SHUT HIS MOUTH PERMANENTLY WHEN HE IS NOT DUMB.. Even Adolf Hitler, in his Luciferous glory smiled more than anyone in his cabinet. So why will you keep trying to ridicule my King because you want to enforce an impossible standard on him? Please excuse me. Let me ask you, SINCE YOU AFONJAS CLAIM ODUDUWA CAME FROM THE SKY WITH A LADDER, WHY HAS THAT SAME LADDER STOPPED BRINGING DOWN MORE ODUDUWA-LIKE ooni's IN IFE....WHERE IS THE LADDER, AND why did the current OONI not descend from Heaven with it? lol, you want to be ridiculous?

.... so because she is white skinned she must be British? Even if she is British, she has access to see the Queen of England? And even if she has access to see her, she can influence her decisions?

Hmm, its time to get out of here, I value my sanity so much!

like Oba N'Ogidigan, Ewuare II said during his coronation ceremony, "we all know the truth, but we are not in a position to enforce our belief on others beyond our borders" I will gladly decline the banter of words of which dynasty is superior a la Benin, Ife. Let us respect one another and stop bringing down our royal fathers. I rest my case!
