The church is as a result of the festac mask


Were the Portuguese had to subject oba esigie in a though agreement in 17c, inother for them to assist benin in a war against igala and also to sell them gun, that the benins had to first convert to Christianity


Oba esigie d wise, had no church to allow the church to be erected, the Portuguese knowing benin won't fully convert to Christianity decided to fight along with benin for the oba attempting to accept Christianity in the first place , but then refused to sell guns to binis


The benin won the idah war and the church remained till date having a mixture of catholicism and a benin traditional religion

Like every traditional center in benin is headed by a priest same as the holy arousa

Oba gha to kpere ise

Ogun if you're not busy remove his imbecilic mouth

istina:


So a fake or false church set up just to woo the Benin people
Ah africa don suffer.
No wonder someone up there said all Benin churches are glorified shrines

gregyboy:


E blike say u mad come life

Abi relaxer dey your brain


If i was edo governor i go burn down all church leave our shrine

Hope you're feeling good now

istina:

Exactly my point
If you want to do church, do church
If you want to do shrine, do shrine.
But to label a shrine a church is nothing more than Holy cacophony

gregyboy:



That shouldn't concern neither are you the Portuguese that brought the Christianity or a benin man to have a say
On the church


You're just one of the conquered people who her ancestor abandon their religion for that of the
Whiteman
If you too were not conquered you wouldn't be using that whiteman language to communicate now
Afterall, you were conquered thats why you were made to learn their language

Didn't know this Oba is even active oh with the way fulani herdsmen are disturbing in orhionwon local government and yet he couldn't do a thing about it.

milann:
What business does the heathen have with the church. Is the oba a christian? This is quite absurd

Etinosa1234:
That church was been established during the time of Oba Esigie by the Portuguese...

It was the Benin way of Christianity

christistruth01:




"The Oba of Benin, His Royal Majesty Omo N’Oba Ewuare Ogidigan (11), has approved the sack of the presiding priest of Holy Aruosa Cathedral, Ohen-Osa Harrison Okao, for alleged non-compliance with ancient long tradition of the land


The decision was jointly taken by the traditional head of the church, HRM Oba Ewuare the second, joint elders committee and top palace chiefs after Okao was found guilty of violating the long-standing rules of the church."


The Oba of Benin has just Confirmed and reconfirmed that most Benin Churches are glorified Shrines run by hardened JuJu Priests

Okao must have been an exception with Prayers that were too hot for the Palace Idols to handle

thorpido:
Osanobua!

Ai we nen ovbokhan ghe ru akon gai; sokpan o ghi mien akhuarhamwen unu ya guere.
