We'll excuse them because they are not of Yoruba roots.. You don't shake hands with the Ooni for whatsoever reason, it's sacrilege and one can be beheaded for that.

Why not go ahead and initiate the beheading process. For this country, people go go school finish, yet, come dey reason like wetin I no know.

As you be king for your land na so another person be king for him land

Rubbish

E don reach Pete una penis stand

If Ooni waka anyhow for night sef guys wey he collect their babes go knack am 2 by 2

Ooni should be thankful say Kanayo no use am complete June sacrifice

Thank you o. Ooni is in his house not bothered but there are here ranting.

goodnessme1:
Obasanjo and Ooni are Yorubas that are supposed to respect Yoruba culture.



But an Igbo kid can not bow to your ooni

But atiku has occasionally bowed before the ooni; so what's your point?

Ooni who doesn't give himself any importance, he attends every ceremony, even a naming ceremony or birthday party, he will roll there, what do you expect? Soon people will start to pat his head and shoulder to greet him, he has brought total disrepute and disrespect to the name of the title and throne he sits on. As the symbolic head and leader of the Yorubas, he has not carried himself with reverence and royalty.

Pchikaodili:
The Oni of Ife is disrespectful,...how can he sat down to shake Pete? He suppose stand to greet Pete Edochie...
Not only that, the three handshake is not for everyone, its only meant for titled chiefs in Igbo land...I blame Pete for that...just one is enough for oni.

I agree with you intoto

JohnBullMySon:
You're just making up these statements. It had nothing to do with Trump being President.

I watched their meeting on BBC when trump visited. The live reporter explicitly clarified that Trump would not do the bow because he was not British. You don't impose Traditions on foreigners anyhow. Amanpour of CNN was told by the President of Iran to wear a scarf while interviewing him in DC. On American soil FGS! She refused and the interview was cancelled.

Saudi Arabia prevents non-muslims from visiting Mecca and Medina because there's no how a non-muslim will do what is expected in those cities. Forcing a foreigner to obey your tradition will eventually cause conflict. There's respect but it has limits.

I am not making anything up Sir! This is the information Age. Head of State don't bow before the King or Queen of England. Go and verify

That Reporter must have spoken in ignorance.

As for Saudi Arabia not allowing anyone but Muslims into The CITY OF MECCA AND MEDINA, that was a Divine Command. Non Muslims must not approach. It has been like that for Fourteen Centuries. It is noty about doing anyhow. Once you are not Muslim, you can't enter those TWO CITIES. If you want tyo know why, I can tell you but the restrictions has nothing to do with "anyhowness" behavior as you opined

OkoRemi2023:



which league igbo get? you people are not in the third richest in Nigeria



you're only known as the most criminal drug cartel in Nigeria and nothing more, average igbo aren't in any league close to average Yoruba



you're in league yet you're running from your ancestral land to be Hawking for a stressed work Yorubas on their express roads


Pete edochie and your ritualist kanayo won't wash their hands for having the privilege to stand in the presence of number one traditional king in Yoruba land



celebrated iidiot like you

the idiot say na league

useless igbos with their prostituting women and drug dealing men they talk about league

stupid tribe of criminals

Never in Igboland do we bow down for any body who is ooni that Pete should bow down for he is a king in yoruba land and not nigeria as a whole take note

A British reporter anchoring a high profile live broadcast of that nature is ignorant?

BTW, forget Trump. This was Billy Graham with the Queen. Was Billy Graham also a head of state?

OkoRemi2023:



those Obas will buy that your enclave and lion Den you called a region



if I have my way I would just pack all of you inside one lab and start to be doing medical investigation on you peoples draining brain



Bunch of unprecedented nitwits

But an average Igbo man with no name is buying every place In Yoruba land while I haven't seen any Yoruba buying anything in Igbo land. If we are to go on what you've said, I think igbos will finally buy the Yorubas. I am not Igbo though

I am trying to understand the issue. What would have been an ideal greating? I watched the video thinking they gave him a high five only for me to realize it was actually the handshake reserved for titled people. What exactly were people expecting? For them not to shake hands at all? Ooni extended his hand first. Are they saying they're more traditional than Ooni? This same Ooni has been shaking hands with foreigners in a far more casual way than this. Who do we always look for reasons to fight one another? Both men are happy. Why are people focusing so much on miscellaneous things like this? I really don't understand.

taylor89:


Exactly my brother

Oga, calm down and read my posts on this! Haha!

I never said The Queen/King don't shake hands! I said they are usually the one that will INITIATE IT. I saw Babangida on Newsline shaking the Queen before so, no need to go on the Internet to bring pictures. He/She do shake but aside Head of States, they Initiate it and not the other way round. The Monarch Protocols ensures that. ..

Reporters/Journalists are people and not Robots, they can err.
