A King In Nigeria chose to end his life rather than bow to the Queen of England.
This is the story of Attah Ameh Oboni, A King In Nigeria, who chose to end his life rather than bow to the Queen of England. To this day, most Nigerian Igala people still tell this story. 🇳🇬
Let’s take You back in time.👇🏾
At the meeting of Nigeria’s Supreme Traditional Rulers in Kaduna, Which the Queen was also present. The revered King of Igala, Attah Ameh Oboni, was asked to take off his hat like everyone else to pay his respects to the Queen of England. But he refused until they said he should leave the meeting if he wouldn’t take off his hat. But Atta was not like others. Taking off his hat in public is a taboo for Atta.
According to history, The entire hall where they were staying was occupied by bees from the Hat of Attah Ameh Oboni which he eventually removed in order to greet the Queen. The Queen of England as well as other rulers in the meeting ran helter-skelter except the friendly Oba of Benin who was asked by Attah Ameh to go out before he removed his cap. The hall became empty as some were stung by the bees and the meeting ended.

That's a big fabrication by Igala people. This is how they go about lying and decieving people.

The British are very adept at keeping records. If this was true, they would have written about it. And with what I know about Igala people, they are the worst type of liars ever. They go about telling lies about people.
