How much do you think traditional rulers are paid?

they are payed on percentage and commission. They also get salary ....it is called royal dues. It is not permanent. Sometime,it can be more or less. It depends on the state cover. But in actuality, they are well payed.

You took the words right out of my head.
Imagine what it costs to acquire the jet and Rolls Royce. No parts , no service made in his Benin Kingdom, a kingdom with such a high poverty and illiteracy rate.
Stuupid Africans , still have clowns running around, feeding fat on their people's commonwealth, calling themselves kings of imaginary kingdoms.

Please if you don't know what to say shut up your mouth before you display your high level of ignorance here. The Oba doesn't have a private jet, that jet belongs to one of his subject. The Rolls Royce was a coronation gift given also by a subject. We had our monarchy here before the british came, we will do everything to make sure it lives on and if you dont like it go hang yourself

Please OP, your headline is misleading. The Oba only has a RR and not a private jet.


Now to those who ask what use is the monarchy, please the Oba isn't like your village chief. The Oba of Benin is an Institution by its own right. it has been there even before the British came and it will remain here.

They have no idea. Let them wallow in ignorance.

Anyway some have no highly acclaimed pre-colonial history and high civilisation that they either resort to envy or have no regard for their own. Benin Kingdom will not only continue, it will also outlive Nigeria, just like it predated Nigeria by about 2000 years!

Oba Ewuare II by virtue of foreign education, serving the nation across the world, business ventures, the class of people a prominent prince naturally was acquainted with, he has very many prominent and wealthy people able to be of assistance when needed.

He was NOT suddenly made King. He was anointed the very moment he was born. That naturally made everyone he came across know him as future king. When many kings in Nigeria today could never even dream of becoming one.

It is not a secret that Oba of Lagos uses his friend's private jet often. Nothing new.

Oba is one of the busiest Nigerians. You just need to visit the palace & see. From receiving prominent people from across the world to settling disputes among his subjects, between communities, family members over inheritance, between politicians to foster peace and more.

PRESENTATION:
I don’t actually blame those of you who call for the abolition of our Royal stools, perhaps one of the only things that is still kept sacred and y’all still wanna wipe it off.
In another 100yrs time just as African Traditions are gone, our language and Royal sits would be outdated by these same people.

Happy Birthday sir
