This is the time when we should re-think about our traditions, Yoruba/African traditions and system of kingship is one of the most sacred in the world and it is well known that you do not mess up with such traditions. But this report that the Oba of Lagos palace is vandalised and his staff of office taken away is really a let down to one of the sacred traditions in the world.

The facts that our traditional rulers take proceedings from government has really ridiculed the traditional system, various rites that were performed before a king is installed in Africa/yoruba land has been altered and the kingship system is losing its values.

When our kings lobbied for contracts, will not deterred the government nor encourage the government about policies but instead lobbied for their own pockets, you will see the kingship system being ridiculed

Sacred places in the palace that only the kings have access to is now common room for the politicians and their cohorts, and the corrupt kings will give out the people's land for politicians for cheap nuts with little consultation with the owners. All these will make such traditional rulers respects to depreciate as his subjects will not respect such king again.

Now kings palace is ransacked because of unknown reason which may be likely connected to heavy involvement of the kings in frivolous issues and unnecessary involvement into politicians matters which are majorly against his people.

But if the process of installing kings in its sacred way is followed, such things would not have happened as nobody will want to dare the consequence. Our traditions is still as potent like of old but corruption and the so called civilization have made us not to practise them as of old.

What is obtainable outside yoruba land/Africa is not the same in other continents let us not forget this traditions, there are forces that make us to do it that way, it time for us to look back before we regret this when the knowledge of the true traditions would have faded away.

The voice of whom cry from the wilderness.

Even, when Ike Ekweremadu was attacked abroad by IPOB, they didn’t burn his properties like they did to Tinubu in Lagos.

Too bad .....
Even our traditional rulers have either forgotten about it or ignored it in it's entirety....

If our true traditional values and rites are upheld, our traditional rulers would not live to see the next day....
Corrupt traditional rulers everywhere...
