MAY IMES COME SOONER THAN HE PLANNED AND PUT AN END TO THIS RUBBISH. ROYALTY HAS BEEN DISGRACED .
IMES WE AWAIT YOUR COMING.

He can promote the local fabrics, without catwalking up and down. What kind of disgraceful act, is that? He is royalty, and not a commoner.

Why can't someone else do the catwalking and advertisement, while he makes a speech, endorsing the local fabric?

This is how desecration of the revered throne and status of monarchs starts, with such unnecessary public displays. 'See finish' and familiarity, go come join am.

He should not bring himself and his role, into disrepute. Catwalking, my left foot!!

Some educated illiterates who read only the headline will soon start jumping into conclusion.

Now read this: In a bid to show the beauty of locally-made fabrics and products , the Ooni of Ife , Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi , took to the runway of the Africa Fashion Week Nigeria to display his locally- made-royal fabrics on Saturday. He urged Nigerians to promote locally-made fabrics and products to boost the nation’s tourism industry.

Don't mind those who are trying hard to hide the truth.

Apart from the Oba of Benin, would the Sultan of Sokoto, Emir of Kano and other distinguished Monarchs publicly misbehave like the Onni of Ife, no!

The Onni is just like Naira Marley on that stage...

It is called simplicity, the royal throne he's occupying didn't get to0 much to his brain.....I don't judge action, I look for intention.

ernieboy:
and nobody else could do that? it had to be him on the runway?

Morenikeji070:
The problem with some of you folks is because you folks don't understand about the throne of Oni of Ife..... so Bleep off ur king is under Oni of Ife. Oni is superior

Superboy075:

He is actually promoting the culture in a smart way. Telling the world about Africa and not just Nigeria...

How can u compare me with Oba of Benin that can't settle common dispute between Obaseki nd Oshiomhole?


Can Oba of Benin enter Ekosodin, Oluku, Ugbowo or Aduwawa even ikpoba hill with out security?

AreaFada2:

Oba of Benin hears cases ranging from family, intercommunity, chieftaincy rivalries, land and other disputes. Every resident of areas under his domain has a right to be heard by the king if disputes cannot be resolved locally or stalled in the court for years and withdrawn.

Oba's duties to his people come first. Sitting up to 7pm to hear cases often. Oba hardly has time to go out. People from home and abroad come to see him.

The emperor of Ethiopia often stood up even in his 80s to hear local disputes between his people. Honouring his oath made in Jerusalem while fleeing from Italian invaders in 1933.

You cannot be too big to ignore a tradition on ground for centuries. An ancient form of citizen's right to a fair hearing.

Do not let ignorance make you speak anyhow. An Oba of Benin is prepared for kingship from birth.

Not apprentice on the job. He would observe his father do the job and follow suit in due course.

You do not get the position because you have the most money, more political connection or whatever.

Oba of Benin spent enough time studying in UK, working at the UN, Being ambassador to Angola, Italy, Scandinavia (accredited to several countries there) and traveling worldwide as a prince to even need much traveling around now as king unless for truly crucial events.

How other Kings choose to do their things is up to them. People have different cultures, histories and priorities.

The government should allocate jobs to these traditional rulers. They have basically nothing to do in their various palaces.

All they know is drive Royal cars upandan

ernieboy:
oga shut up, under which oni? no be only under na above. tell ur oni to continue gallivanting all over the place, one of these days they will show him turning up in the club.

Sewgon79:


Are we his subject complaining. Why are you giving yourself headache. Have you been to Ife, there are so many traditions that warrant the throne to walk around the community, what different does this make. He is just displaying simplicity as powerful as he is. That is HIS IMPERIAL MAJESTY for you. I will always love him. KÍ ADÉ Ó PE NÍ ORÍ, KÍ BÀTÀ PÉ LÉṢE

Royal support for the fashion industry

YoungLionken:


Subject indeed,how many times have you paid homage to him,to prove your loyalty?

You're here making baseless, hypocritical points.

And you expect to read what you wrote in your local language? Damn!

CeterisXVII:


Thank you, o jaré. Enough of this disco obas. Look at any revered monarchy over the world. They don't engage in such silly frivolities.

Even Meghan that married Prince Harry, had to give up her acting career, after marrying into the royal family. And those are the monarchies that thrive on modernity, o!!

CeterisXVII:

Try to be sensible for once in your life. Does he have to catwalk on a stage in order to promote the culture? That is how you people support ridiculous things....
