I would not give a straight answer but i will give reasons why it can or not possible , Yes the British invaded the benin empire with guns and sacked it, in the past there were no jaz to protect people from such unfamiliar weapons But today we have such and i saw a guy Dustin bullet from his chest shot from an armored tank and i have also seen Niger delta boys dustin bullet from air strikes, as for the bombs we have disappearing jazz for it too , Unlike in the past, many factors played out why benin were conquered if you base it on the military weapon alone then, you're ignorant The then oba of benin had to surrender to British forces to save benin from further destruction The oba of benin is invisible dont underestimate him he is the chief priest to all chief priest in the enitre acient empire he only answers to his ancestors There is a saying in ondo that just as the oba of benin command respect and authority on earth so as their sky god commands in heaven The British wanted to hang the oba as punishment but the benin chiefs told them that they rather all die to see that happens and even the British succeeded in hanging the oba that the British lives would be cut shut, and that they will all die mysteriously which they considered and sent him on exile unlike the treatment giving to jaja of opopo who was hanged For mob attacking the palace it would be disastrous even if the oba had done all shade of wrongs, the oba in acient past had once done wrongs and the highest thing that occurred was anarchy which was later restored, having the intention of doing evil to the oba the moment you cross the oba palace gate with such intentions That person will just fall and die, it is a protective jazz Found in the gate If you hold the oba staff or crown it would be instant madness the British soldier who did that all ran mad and died mysteriously But i believe if the people are against the oba anarchy can occur the palace can be torn apart but hurting the oba or taking his staff is no go area I believe the vioce of the people his the voice of the gods too, but trust me people will die if they invade the oba palace things wen dem go see go make the mods run go back they shout for help If they use bomb, the building will only collapse and no body go die The oba is divine so forget it AreaFada2 Sarah20A Etinosa1234 Etrusen Valirex Ghostwon 1 Like |

All this cultural positions are just ceremonial names, believe me no spiritual importance is attached to it. Instead they are use to syphon dollars and royalties from unsuspecting public. How can an Ova be keeping 3 coffins filled with dollars? Nature, culture and gods do not protect such cultural heads, fake people everywhere 2 Likes 1 Share |

Hoodlums can't dare invade the oba's palace simply because the king is not a controversial person. Unlike the oba of Lagos that is known for making inciteful statements and a man of questionable character |

Edeyoung: I time for fight bro, I was only answering a simple question from the OP. Indirectly you are saying any one who owns lands, maybe in hectares and collect royalties should have raw dollars in coffins. Is well, OK why did he not take them to the banks? Or maybe the foreigner donors of raw dollars also advice's him to construct 3 coffins for these raw hard foreign currencies? 1 Like |

Well, in theory any Palace can be invaded. But it depends on the culture of the people involved. The Palace though is the King's abode and office, it's actually the heritage of the entire people of the kingdom. As for Benin Palace many people in Lagos, Ondo, Delta and some other places share that heritage. People's sense of belonging and history matters a lot in defending, cherishing or destroying what is actually their own heritage. Let me not go into the mystical argument. |

It can happen but I don't think it can happen now because our oba is not a controversial person. He sees himself as the father of Benin and Edos in general.. so as a father, it will be bad to meddle in the affairs of ur children hence the non partisan stance.. Besides the average Benin person has pride in his culture and the oba Being the custodian of the culture is being cherished.. so it's highly unlikely from one foreigner to try to attempt to invade the oba palace Ask onyearugbulem who died mysteriously 4years after attempting to change Benin tradition 2 Likes |

MickzyDonald:Are you aware that a late past oba conjure fire with his hands and threw it on a tree and the tree burnt down? Are you also aware that the present oba placed a curse on traffickers,who specialize in trafficking Edo citizens abroad for the wrong purpose after forcing them to take oaths in order to pay back millions and traffickers started dying both home and abroad till trafficking was reduced to a minimum? Do you know there was a time oba market was on fire and hoodlums used the opportunity to loot traders wares and the issue got to the late oba,he made an announcement that he will be stepping out the next day on bare foot to walk the length and breadth of the market,who ever looted anything as small as a pin will face the consequences and truly almost everything looted were returned that same day while the stubborn ones actually payed for what they priced ignorantly with the mindset that oba's power are just myth?.. I could go on and on because it's not every oba or king one toys with. even some chiefs are not permitted to see the oba talkless of sitting among his councils, likewise it's not every seat in there(throne not included,just normal seats) a stranger or even an indigene or some categories of chiefs can sit on in the palace? Do you know almost all the guards working in there have never set their eyes on ring road even though the palace is just less than a stone throw from there and are virgins till the end of their service? I can still go on.. Do you know there was a time an old witch got toasted and roasted in the air like roasted chicken just for flying over the palace of the oba,the witch didn't have business there but was toasted just for flying over it. Do you know it took more than the mouth could mention before the palace walls were demolished at a particular section just for expansion of ring road to be constructed during oshiomhole's tenure as governor,and rebuilt. Go ask any Benin person,e go clear ur doubt. I dare you to go touch the cloth of that young man oba places his hands on and not oba himself and see if you will see the fowl or goat your family will slaughter for Xmas. 3 Likes 1 Share |

The only people you scare are the typical Naija Christians. For instance , let assume your Oba killed my relative I will hang him on a tree and burn down that hell hole.
