PoliticsRe: Influential Traditional Rulers Who Were Dethroned In Nigeria. by lalaosa(m): 11:29am On Mar 11, 2020
Please all those saying the Oba of Benin was dethroned don't really know the history, or maybe you just say this to prove a point that no king is above the law. Yes very true. But the fact is the Oba of Benin was never dethroned like others. He was stylishly removed from the throne and taken to exile. This was done because the white guys knew that the only way to access the kingdom was to deceit the king. Which they still do today in many parts of Nigeria.
The Oba of Benin can surely be dethroned by this. Present Government but trust me it's not going to be funny because body bags will follow . Only those that are real Edo will understand this outsiders won't... Edo people are simple but no try them with their Oba.
