HOW MANY OF YOUR FAMILY HAVE U HELP WITH THIS?

PublicHealthNig:
The intrigues and the power play in the Nigerian political sphere did not begin today I stumbled on this story on @Ngrfacts on twitter investigated deeper and decided to share .

Olabode Akanbi Thomas was born to the family of Andrew Thomas, a wealthy trader and auctioneer who was originally from Oyo but migrated to Lagos. He attended C.M.S. Grammar School, a missionary school founded by Thomas Babington Macaulay and James Pinson Labulo Davies. After completing his studies, he served as a junior clerk at the Nigerian Railway Corporation but towards the end of the year, he resigned his appointment and went to London to study law. He was called to the bar in 1942 and returned to Nigeria to establish what became a successful practice in Lagos.

According to many accounts, Bode was an excellent lawyer who was however arrogant. Due to his education Thomas was made the chairman of the Oyo Divisional Council at a time when the Oba Adeyemi (the father of the current Alaafin) was still a member.
At its Inaugural meeting of the council, Thomas arrived and all the other councilors, except Oba Adeyemi, stood up to welcome him. He rudely told the king “WHY WERE YOU SITTING WHEN I WALKED IN? WHY CANT YOU SHOW ME RESPECT?” At that time Bode was 34 years old while the Alaafin was in his 60s. The Alaafin felt very insulted. he told Bode “SHEY EMI ON GBO MO BAUN? EMI NI ONGBO BI AJA MO BAUN{ IS IT ME YOU ARE BARKING AT LIKE THAT? IS IT ME YOU ARE BARKING LIKE A DOG AT LIKE THAT? KEEP BARKING.”
That was on 22nd November 1953. It was reported that Bode Thomas got home and started barking. He barked and barked and barked all night. Then he died. He died on 23 November 1953.

Try commanding MtN data into your phone, that'll be very commendable.

WisdomFlakes:


He was a prominent founding member of Action Group which was the leading/ruling party in the Western Region and he was Awolowo's bossom friend, before his untimely death. His death led the Action Group to dethrone the Alaafin, sending him on exile.

I read that Awolowo was so angry that he not only dethrone Alafin, he raised the Ooni relevance ahead of the Alafin.

The Europeans have their Traditional Gods and Witchcraft too and that was not a Trick. That was a traditional festival celebration, you can believe whatever you like but saying the Europeans didn't once have their traditional Gods and practice witchcraft is just Ignorance

Who saw him barkin like a dog before he died?

I confirmed the veracity of the story during a recent encounter I had with an elderly member of his family at his (Bode Thomas) family compound in Oyo town.

That's correct.

Watch this Video of Ooni of Ife calling down Rain


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmrCuNRCK-U

What rain...I can't see any rain falling in the video.

The fact that this keeps making Nairaland front page makes it a myth

jchioma:
Wait. Is it the same popular Bode Thomas of Surulere Lagos?

It has to be, as that's the only Bode Thomas in Lagos.

LazyGold:
If you want to die Young go and disrespect a Yoruba King, you dare not try it with Chief talk less of King

Correct. When I was a kid an arrogant police DSP went to arrest a man "suspected" of doing juju for robbers in a town. Actually he was just arresting and shooting "suspects" anyhow. With his pistol ready in his hand he burst into the house. People ran to the Palace to inform the Duke.

The Duke was alarmed and went to the scene. The duke informed him that as a matter of courtesy, if he did not find the suspect, custom demands that he should come to the Palace. That he can produce anybody in his domain to the police if needs be.

But the DSP talked down on the Duke. Boasting that had he seen any moving thing in the house, he would have shot it at first sight. Warning the Duke that if he didn't produce him, he would come and kill people in the town. The Duke was really angered. Returned to the Palace, got out ancient relics and openly swore for the DSP. Telling him his cup Was full.

The Duke then sent the "suspect" to the AIG with a lawyer to face whatever he was accused of. Nothing could be proven against him and was told to go back home.

Within 21 days the DSP was arrested for protecting armed robbers in return for huge money. Armed robbers testified against him. He was tried and executed in 1986.

Anyone who was old enough in 1986 should know what I am talking about. It was national news for months back then. But only few know the background story. I knew because the Duke was a close relative.

Yoruba your judgment is doing press up.

LazyGold:


What's this one saying? Have you taken your drug today?

Yoruba let my people go.

LazyGold:


Do you know that the Ooni of Ife can call down rain?

So you're saying the British gods were more power than your ancestors gods?

So when the British invaded, your ancestors gods were peeing their pants and flee for their lives leaving your ancestors behind to their fates.... it's been long they've been clueless.

ednut1:
Fallacy. The useless kings could not command whites to run mad or bark like dogs. The man had rabies end of story.

Go and tell the Alaafin!

The story is true. BODE THOMAS was taken to IJEBU IGBO for treatment. He was eventually healed by BABA OJUMOKAN in Ijebu Igbo. Few days for him to be discharged, in the morning while reading paper, some assasin arrived and assasinated him on the chair. The incident occurred just the following morning that Obafemi Awolowo just visited him and certified healthy.

As a result, BABA OJUMOKAN in OJOWO Ijebbu Igbo committed suicide before the return of AWOLOWO.

The story is true and living witnesses are still available in Ijebu Igbo for detail confirmation.

Scary! Is this story real?

Superstitious nonsense. I am sure Bode Thomas did not bark.

Zico5:
Religion apart, there is supernatural power for kings especially foremost kings like Ooni, Alaafin, and other prominent kings in Yoruba land. If they use their stool and some ancient artifacts they have to curse u, u will be miserable for the rest of ur life. That's why I pity some of those people on nairaland that talk anyhow to kings cos this is a faceless group. The day ur cup will be full then u will know power is still in existence.

many Nigerians r already living a miserable lyf without bin cursed

Power is greater than power, and Gods are more powerful than Gods. If you are a Christian, God forsaken the Jews and allowed them to be Enslaved, Jesus Christ was persecuted by men despite all his supernatural power. Even in the Bible there was record of witchcraft and paganism, the World is complicated

Do you think the whites are just ordinary beings like that and don't possess metaphysical powers?
I beg you don't disrespect elders unless to ba Fe jeyan ni isu or to ba Fe gborun ara e.
If you no know you go know.

femi4:
yes, he was a brilliant lawyer

Waoh! I didn't know he was from Oyo. The guy must have been very brilliant to be that famous.

It's a pity he died at such a young age.

God did not forsake anybody, they were serving punishment for their sins...


Jesus persecution was a prophecy, a choice.


What was your ancestors crime?
