What Happened To Oba Of Lagos Can Never Be Tried With These(3) Kings by Nobody: 8:14am On Oct 29, 2020
Kings and monarch are a respected personnel in the region of Africa. They termed them sacred because they believe they are the second god and have every authority to command with no question.





Recently, a surprising incident cropped up where we heard hoodlums invaded the palace and also have the effrontery to go away with the King's staff; leaving no regards for the monarch personalty.

In those days, kings are known to be very powerful and highly influential person in their domains. But some kings are still respected today that no one dares look them in the eye without serving punishment.


It was a big embarrassment to the while of Lagos has their King's palace was invaded by hoodlums to the extent that the king ram for his dear life.

THESE ARE THE THREE KINGS THAT I THINK STILL MAINTAIN THEIR INTEGRITY IN NIGERIA

1. Oba of Benin




He is one of those kings that are being respected by his people and are still refers to as god in their own domain. He is a true definition of royalty.

2. Alaafin of Oyo





He is one of the most respected king in the land of Yoruba and believed to be father to every Yoruba descendants. He is a respected king and no one dares to disrespect him.

3. Ooni Of Ife



It is said in the history of Yoruba that ile-ife is the home of all traditions and deities. There were so many sacred places in ile-ife that only those that have the right can go there. He is also a king of dignity.

The kings mentioned above are being treated as god and have shown people how kings suppose to rule.

What do you think about the kings mentioned above?

Do you think the incident that happened to Oba of Lagos can also happen to this mentioned kings?

Those ones have never took sides when it comes to politics. If they do, same will happen to them. Respect is earned and not acquired.

You people and all these dick-measuring contests. Always looking for reasons to claim some sort of 'superiority' of one traditional ruler over the other.

Y'all did this same thing when Sanusi was removing as Emir. Talmbout how this would never happen to this Oba or that other traditional ruler.

Listen, when the people are angry enough, ANY palace can be stormed and desecrated. ANY palace. Read your history.

The Yoruba have increasingly been disrespecting their monarchs of late. The stories and accusations of how a popular Yoruba musician slept and impregnated one of Alaafin younger wife is all over social media. The Ooni have been severally disrespected in public by the Yorubas, the recent being Tinubu's failure to stand up from his chair to greet the Ooni properly and respectfully, a culture the Yorubas are known for.

Now the desecration of the Palace of Oba of Lagos.
