What is even the benefit of the ooni to Nigeria?

All this nonsense traditional jargons should be deleted..

Men sitting on their thrones, marrying plenty wives and with plenty maids, does not add anything to the economy..

GOD BLESS AMERICA.

exactly all the kings do is to share from national cake. All brandishing roll royce upandan. First class oba my foot

If nobody talks about you, then you are nobody

lol..so he didn't prostrate to greet him

Tozara:
When irrelevant things steer controversies all the time, just know that the members of that society are PETTY IDIOTS!

GOD BLESS YOU.

LordKO:
Politeness isn't a sign of timidity instead its a sign of dignity. SMH for the OP and his ilks.

GOD BLESS YOU.

I see a man with simplicity. to be the head those not mean people must lick your feet. humility i see in him

IMO it is time to GET RID OF THIS RADITIONAL "RULERSHIP" NONSENSE. It is anachronistic and have no function in a democratic, egalitarian society.

So you expect Otedola to prostrate ontop table? Una de craze

There is nothing indecent about this picture and all that transpired therein.

The Queen will not behave like that that is why she is still respected. This Ooni has been an embarrassment from day 1. Starting from the wife he chose, then kneeling down in church (Ooni is the custodian of Ifa religion, it's it's not your cup of tea, then dont be King), performing rituals on a commercial plane (yeah the same man who says Jesus is his lord and saviour) , visiting Obiano in his personal house and now this the list goes on and on. The man does not seem to understand the office or throne he sits on and his responsibilities. The throne is definitely bigger than him, nobody seems to take him seriously.

As a yoruba man, this is embarassing really.
Some people from rude cultures like the sliding tackle ones won't see anything wrong with it sha.

what amazed me was people kept blasting the king coz he shook his hand all bcoz he's a billionaire however, they 4got the king is a Billionaire too... might not be as rich as Otedola buh he's a billionaire as well...

WATELSE

Otedola is standing up and leaned over to greet the king. That's the body language I read here.

However you plebians may decide to roll around on the floor for him. Otedola doesn't roll like that.

Ps the ooni isn't a joke, he's not a smallie, he's a titan and titans recognise titans.

The billionaire is the one that even stretch his hands, not the oba, Abi, oni

Pidginwhisper:
So una dey expect Otedola to dobale for Ooni @ an Event? Na for palace Ooni fit dey get Dobale

Adenuga has dobale several times for the Awujale at different places and occasions.
You can get 4 Otedola from 1 Adenuga.

which Kind yeye Billionaire is that? naira Billionaire is different from Dollar billionaire. Naira Billionaire, you buy one correct house in banana and your money don finish. Besides the issue for me is not whether he or otedola is/are billionaires or not, As a paramount King you dont stretch to greet anybody. Especially a yoruba man who is disrespecting you by not prostrating. But why wont he when you have been embarrasing yourself upandown?

He perfectly understands. He moves with the times. He understands that this anachronistic nonsense has no part in a modern society

Yoruba culture is gone

Tradition and culture is not about moving with the times. It is about preserving the traditions and history by which he became King. If we are moving with the times, then why bother having them after all they have no real powers? A Nigerian King needs permission from the chairman of his local govt before he can leave his domain. The whole point of retaining these Obas is the preservation of culture and tradition and this Ooni is an embarrassment to all yorubas.

if he wants to be King of the English ways, then we might as well scrap his obaship because there is only One Queen of England. He is a yoruba King and he should behave as such.

Topccy007:
Money Vs Power.... Which is better?

LIKE for money and SHARE for power.

Money is power!

A wealthy bini man will never do such to oba

martineverest:
A wealthy bini man will never do such to oba

This is why as a yoruba man I have utmost respect for the Bini culture and King. Most yoruba Kings are beggars, there for the govt money.

Still the Yorubas will be the first shout Igbo and worship of money......

Even in England, you dare approach the Queen without bowing or bending the knee first.

abeg tell these fools talking nonsense about moving with times o!!!

Still the Yoruba mentality worrying the small boy. By right, any man who is not up to 60 years should not be a traditional ruler. Even at that you must be moderately rich.

Who told you that the Ooni isn't a billionaire too? He is a rich man.

There is nothing wrong with the greeting here after all the Ooni is seated
