Ojude Oba festival is an ancient festival celebrated by the Yoruba people of Ijebu-Ode, a town in Ogun State, Southwestern Nigeria. This annual festival usually takes place the third day after Eid al-Kabir (Ileya), to pay homage and show respect to the Royal Majesty, the Awujale of Ijebuland. It is one of the most spiritual and glamorous festivals celebrated in Ijebuland and generally in Ogun State as a whole.

It is a festival whereby different cultural age groups are known as regberegbe, indigenes, their friends, and associates far and near parades at the front of the king's palace on the third day of Eid al Kabir festival popularly referred to as "Ileya" in Yoruba language. Oba Adetona was the one that brought back the age groups in the 18th century into the general acceptable phenomenon that is found among today's Ijebus, and this has become an integral part of the yearly Ojude Oba festival in Ijebu. The reason for the age groups was to bring development and progress to the community.

Ojude Oba which means king's fore-court in Yoruba language is usually celebrated with Pomp and pageantry by about 1,000,000 people from different parts of the world and Nigeria, especially those from Yoruba origin and most especially by people of Ijebu descent all over the world

The fact is that your kind is unfit to be called humans that is why you are stuck in the past. You need to open up your ass-licking tribal mind to understand the meaning of a country, constitutions and laws.

This was stated in a release by the Union's President, Mr. Toyin Ibrahim Igbo, and General Secretary, Mr. Olanrewaju Oluwa, and issued by the Union's Publicity Secretary, Engr. Kayode Ajayi, on Friday.

Lagos State indigenes residing in the United Kingdom, Ireland and other foreign lands have urged the state government under the leadership of Babajide Sanwo-Olu to adopt the England Property Law to favour the indigenous residents over others in the state.

This was stated in a release by the Union's President, Mr. Toyin Ibrahim Igbo, and General Secretary, Mr. Olanrewaju Oluwa, and issued by the Union's Publicity Secretary, Engr. Kayode Ajayi, on Friday.

The statement claimed that the domestication of English property law would lay to rest the lingering issue of “Lagos is a no man's land.”

According to the Union, an interest in land/real estate in England can be held under freehold or leasehold ownership, with the freehold being the highest category of ownership in England and Wales and, in most situations, virtually conferring absolute ownership.
Leasehold rights grant exclusive possession and use of land for a set length of time.

The statement reads, “A real estate owner in England can also give non-exclusive rights, known as easements, to third parties to use the land, such as granting a right of way. If correctly registered, easements are binding on any future owners of the property. The transfer of real estate to a purchaser must be recorded in writing on a form specified by HM Land Registry.

“Literally, land in Lagos State should be sold to an interested person or persons or group of persons as lease for a period of One Hundred (100) years after which the property is subject to review. With this law, indigenes will retain right of full ownership of the land in the state”, the Union said.

The union continued: “Lagos indigenes are selling their land to immigrants due to lack good jobs to cater for their families. Even where jobs are available, they are given to non-indigenes leaving the indigenes to sell their land or properties for survival or join the japa syndrome that have befall the country while others have become touts, miscreants and agberos.

“A situation where local government jobs are being given to non-indigenes is atrocious to the indigenous people of Lagos. The state civil service is full with non-indigenes as staff while indigenes roam the streets. If this continued, Lagos indigenes will be decimated in the state and they will not have a place to call their own in the near future.

Governor Sanwo-Olu and Lagos lawmakers should ensure the land and interest of Lagos indigenes are well protected”, the union added.

SF operatives are not regimented .

They operate under very liberal rules.

Appearance is one as discipline in appearance is not an issue as these are the most professional premiere league soldiers in their own field.

Even some Navy SEAL platoons have NCOs in commanding position despite having the rare officer in their midst.

It's all about team work and that mber who carries the most confidence

Offpointng:
It's quite funny how Nigerian troops advance to the frontline without Fragmental Jacket, Ballistic helmet, atleast 3 magz and Eyes safety system (ESS) to say the least

And this is not bout being Rugged as they'd always assume but sheer primitive-ness and being unsophisticated in terms of safety, professionalism or efficiency.

Yes. He was Chief of Army Staff for few months under Shagari and then moved to Chief of Defence Staff. He was the person that led war but being the second in command Obasanjo took the credit.
