Yorubas are not Oyo but Ile-ife, our cradle. We will never allow some dolt in a circle from IDP camp to redicule our cradle. Fiulani meat grin

Orunmila(Ifa ), the wisest man in Africa is from ife and that's another story from ife

If truly you consulted Ifa before choosing this Alaafin , then you people actually consulted ife to help choose your king..... Na wisdom bro not for dolt grin
The same way you consulted Ifa before choosing your Ooni

After all, Ooni makes CLEAN money

All referred Yoruba chieftaincy titles are bestowed by the Alaafin. From the Aare Onakakanfo to other titles

No one goes to the Ooni for Yoruba-wide chieftaincy titles

Ooni that's desperate for the same recognition that the Alaafin enjoys outside Nigeria. Throwing money about in Canada just in a desperate bid to be recognised

While Alaafin effortlessly gets accorded all the respect in the world

The 42nd Ooni, Adegunle Adewela ruled from 1839-1849 and you're talking about if anybody hears about any Ooni Obaship until 100 years after this time? Do you know that the current Ooni is from the Giesi ruling house, the 20th Ooni to grace the throne? You are claiming a rulership that once had Ogun as the Ooni an invention of Awolowo in the 20th century? You try.
At least, we can agree that Ile Ife is the cradle of Yorubas and I don't think anyone can ever grow up to be their father no matter how great they are. Oyo might be great militarily, and that's it. The seat of Oduduwa will forever be greater. Oranmiyan, the founder of Oyo, was the 6th Ooni. I don't understand the confusion here.

This is wishy-washy at best

Above all, I'm not trying to denigrate the Ooni stool. Just putting the records straight. Proper historical information. From the perspective of an impartial bystander

Alaafin is Oba nla ti n fi Oba je for a reason. He enthroned kings, from Ogbomoso to Ilorin, from Ilorin to Ede. Name it. Oyo empire greatness is ubiquitous

Which Oba does the Ooni control? Not even the next-door Modakeke

Ife is our cradle. The real cradle of blackman's civilization

The Ooni stool remains reverred, and forever so

God bless

The empire lives and reigns. It's there in your daily activities but you just don't know. The reborn, the renaissance, the reawakening is in full gear, too

Which Yoruba dialect is accepted as standard today? Which Yoruba dialect is expressed in Yoruba books as standard? Which Yoruba dialect is taught in schools?

Trace the etymology of standard Yoruba words and you will find the Oyo emblem in them all. You embody Oyo kingdom, daily - in words and in deed. Oyo has you colonised. Live with the truth

I once said it that Oyos should sometimes try to leave their shores. Ile-ife is seen as the cradle of all yorubas and Oduduwa throne remained sacred to us. This same Oyo egocentric is what led to the fall of Oyo empire. Present Oyo today was an IDP camp that was turned to a town grin
Oyo was an empire. All empires experience upheaval. It's a normal thing to go through if you ever venture to become an empire. Well, Ife never dared anything. We all know who dares wins. Ife never dared

From Mongol empire to British empire to Ottoman empire to Russian empire, upheaval defined them all. Becoming an empire no be moin moin

It's part of their greatness.

Oduduwa never really operated as an Oba. He was more of an Ifa man. He simply birthed kings

Answer this question: did you hear much about Ife Obaship before the turn of the 20th century?

No. Ooni's elevation is essentially tied to the politics of Awolowo

I'm not sure about Ekiti. But, Osun monarchs align with Alaafin
