Its the humility in him and besides who will question him if he choses not to bow. Is Buhari not older than him ? He is an Oba, a leader of about 1 million people in his town, Buhari is a leader of over 200 million people.

Even bishops bowed for Buhari. The respect is not for buhari but the office of the president.

He's a king, not a priest even these priests can bow to ur young mother, that's humility not this one.

President of Nigeria is one of the top 5 most powerful in the world. Nigeria is the soul of the black race. Have you ever thought of Nigeria and nigger area? A common governor who can't control his state commissioner of police can remove any king in his state. Do we have to talk about what the president can do

BabaRamota1980:


You Edos since your invasion and conquest by Biafra have been infested with ego problem.

No Yoruba Oba has ever been put in chains and arrested like criminal and bundled out of his throne to go and quench in a foreign land. Would you like to see Omo N'Oba Nogbaisi?

Say yes when you are ready for his image in shackles....

Oba Ademola Ademiluyi


An Osun State High Court has granted bail to a traditional ruler in the state, Oba Ademola Ademiluyi, a cleric, Pastor Taiwo Fakowajo and four other suspects arrested in connection with the March 8 clash between Hausa settlers and Yoruba in Ile-Ife. The suspects, who had been in prison since April 28, were granted bail on Friday. The presiding judge, Justice Kudirat Akano, granted the suspects bail in the sum of N5 million each

Issa lie. A king bows to no one. They are the custodian of an ancient culture.

in the annals of Nigerian history, Yorubas were the only tribe that were EASILY conquered by the British, other tribes put up a more honorable resistance to the colonial forces(although to be fair to them, decades of war among themselves like the Kiriji wars made them significantly weaker). Much respect to the Edo people, they fought with pride and honor. Even the Igbos they mock for not having a recognized empire and monorchial structure , still have the Brits a bloody fight... The famous Ekumeku resistance by the old western Igbo people is still been studied in British universities till date as a prototype of perfectly mastered guerilla warfare and tactics ever carried out by an African tribe on the sophisticated British war machine.

Do you think the white men came in thru Sokoto or calabar If it was to be that then... I rest my case. You know nothing really.

Stop talking thrash. No Bishop can ever bow for Buhari. They were obviously trying to sit down but the Camera man caught them in that angle and it made it seem like they were bowing. I know you are very much aware of this but you are just trying to be mischievous.

A king is a custodian of an ancient custom and has the mandate of Heaven. No true King bows to a mortal.

And you think the Yoruba were the one's that fought that battle..


It was the Benin soldiers that camped in Lagos and used it as their war camp ( EKO )

Edoloaded:


I guess it was even the Bini soldiers that fought that battle, remember the place was actually a war camp for the Benin soldiers at that time. (EKO)

You may not be far from the truth... Eko was predominantly occupied by the Benin slaves who actually discovered it. So its very much possible they formed the bulwark of foot and naval soldiers that resisted the British invasion.

This is Oba Oludotun Aremu Gbadebo Alake and Paramount Ruler of Egbaland and Chairman, Ogun State Council of Obas

He met Buhari at the State House, Abuja.

The Alake of Egbaland was a senior military officer
so he may have subconsciously defered to PMB
was was his superior officer in the Nigerian
Army. It is a non-issue to me!

It could also be an optical illusion, which makes
it looks like he was bowing.


Just my 2 cents!

Master and Slave.
No rocket science involved

[Why Won't Dey Bow Do You Know How Much Amosun Gave Them To Convey Him To Beg Mr Bubu In Abuja...

Yoruba Kings Are Now Slaves Kings In Politics Mostly Those Kings From Ogun State

prolog2:

It seems you yoruba are really daft.
Oba Nogbaisi Ovonramwen is a hero.
While he was fighting a war against the british your yoruba chiefs were bowing down to the brits without giving a fight.
The title "Oba", Oba Nogbaisi was the only person who had that title when the brits arrived. It is the Edo title for the King of Benin Kingdom.
Your cowardly chiefs all copied it late in the colonial era.
Also, the sultan of sokoto and the emir of kano suffered the same fate as the Oba of Benin.
Because they also had the balls to fight against the brits, unlike the so called yoruba chiefs.

OBAGADAFFI:
The British-Ijebu war of 1892 (The battle of Imagbon)




In 1891, the Ijebu tribe, dwelling between 50 and 60 miles north-east of Lagos on the Magbon river, set a blockade on the trade route from the interior into Lagos, which was a crown colony, and charged customs dues which served as their income. The Awujale, the traditional ruler of Ijebu, closed down the Ejirin market, cutting off Lagos from a source of up-country trade.

The British government persuaded the Awujale several times to open the blockaded route but the Ijebu ruler remained adamant. However, in May 1891, a British acting governor, Captain C.M Denton C.M.G, together with some Hausa troops (mostly slaves who fled the North to South and were recruited by the British army) went to Ijebu kingdom to make an agreement with the Awujale on opening the blockaded route and allowing the free passage of goods into Lagos. The Awujale refused but after much persuasion and pressure, the Awujale agreed in January 1892 on the terms of receiving £500 annually as compensation for the loss of custom revenue.

However, the agreement didn’t last long. A white missionary was denied access to pass through the kingdom and was sent back. The British government were provoked by the action of the Ijebus and authorized the use of force on the kingdom. Britain gathered troops from Gold Coast (Ghana), Sierra Leone, Ibadan, and Lagos (the Hausa troops nearly 150).

Battle of imagbon

Colonel F.C. Scott C.B was the commander of the troops of 450 men piled up by Britain. On the 12th of May, 1892, the captain and his men, including some carriers, sailed up the Lagos Lagoon and landed at Ekpe.
When they got to Leckie, another carriers about 186 in numbers were recruited.
On the Ijebu side, 8000 men with old rifles would be fighting the British. The British underestimated the fighting prowess of the Ijebus thus giving them some hard times in penetrating into the interiors of Ijebu kingdom. The first day, the British army razed down four villages with some of their men sustaining fatal injuries. The next day, they proceeded to Atumba and gunned down the Ijebus with machine guns. Britain lost 12 men which include a Briton and 12 Africans. Every Ijebu villages they came across was burnt to the ground. The Ijebus were really losing the battle but determined to prevent the British army from crossing the Yemoyi river. The goddess of the Yemoyi river was said to have taken human sacrifice in order to prevent the intruders (British) from crossing. The river was dug deeper by the Ijebus to make it impenetrable by all means for the British army. However, the British army managed to cross the sacred Yemoyi river and unleashed havoc on the Ijebus. They proceeded to the village of Imagbon.

The Ijebus had lost over 900 men while Britain lost only 56 men and have more than 30 wounded. The Ijebus were still determined to fight on but shortly afterwards, the Awujale surrendered and admitted losing the war.

The British union flag was later raised above Ijebu Ode. Captain Scot warned his men against pillaging which some didn’t heed to especially the Ibadan irregulars who were later deprived of their arms. The toll gates in Oru built by the Ijebus were destroyed and some of their shrines were also torched.

This bloody war is also known in history as the 1892 Ijebu Expedition.

The British troops were awarded The East & West Africa Medal with Clasp dated ‘1892’.
Today, one of these medals can be found in Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. Ijebu kingdom was later annexed to the colony of southern Nigeria.

Bane2020:

Let's first start with how the Ijebus bent over to the predominantly Hausa infantry in just a matter of weeks.. Bring it on mate, I'm ready for some historical lessons

How many days did it take Benin and Sokoto/Kano kingdoms bend over?

Hausa infantry trained by the British is different from Hausa infantry trained by Hausa. Do you understand?

It is Gbadebo, he was a member of the state house during Buhari's first term and was likely Idiagbon's Chief of staff or the equivalent then.

BabaRamota1980:
Edoloaded your running tongue is silent now.

I will show your Oba with his feet shackled in prisoner chains as two Hausa constabularies put him under arrest and led him out of palace.

If you have no grace to honor others we will teach you a deserving dis-grace and dis-honor.

Alake was wrong. Ooni and Alaafin can never bow to anyone. try to be reasonable instead of insulting others.
