Tell me when Ife became a kingdom, olodo

Alaafin that ruled Yorubaland up to Coutonu

Did Ooni even rule up to Ilesha?

Two olodos. The two of you have some missing screws in your heads. Was Awolowo born in 1903 when the british colonial master of that era called out to the Ooni and the Alaafin even had to sleep outside his palace out of respect for the Ooni?

Don't let your hatred for Oba Ogunwusi consume you. Soldier go, soldier come, but barrack go remain.

NATIVE CROWNS.

Olodo like you

1903 is even recent in the history of the Yoruba people

Moreover, the British recognised the paramount position of Alaafin in Yorubaland

Till today, all the Obas in Osun state see Alaafin as their real leader

Seriously? The fact that Oyo commanded military powers doesn't negate the fact that the throne at Ile Ife is older. Oga, that's the throne of Oduduwa.
Ife was never an empire. Ask any historian, you will be told that Alaafin was the real paramount ruler of Yorubaland

I'm telling you the truth. It's Awolowo that elevated Alaafin for political reasons

Also, money played a role. Oyo people were not selecting rich people in the past and that had an effect

The wealth of Ooni like Oba Sijuade elevated Ooni standing

Moreover, media coverage in the last 60 to 70 years has been favourable to the Ooni so the new generation of Yoruba children only believe what's trending

Good.

The greatest king of the entire yoruba race.
I know fabricators of lies, especially from Osun state will come here to argue nonsense about Ọọni of ifẹ.
From history, Ọọni was never meant to be a king. HE WAS JUST AN ABỌRẸ TO ALAAFIN OF ỌYỌ.
WHAT WE CAN CALL COUP AND AND DISAGREEMENT MADE ỌỌNI A KING MM
Alaafin is truly the no1

It was Awolowo who started promoting Ooni because of his quarrel with the Oyo Kingdom. People should read about the paramount position of Alaafin in Yorubaland

I'm not sure about the Abore part sha

PoliticsRe: Fresh Electricity Tariff Hike Looms, Nigeria’s Monthly Power Subsidy Hits N181.B by maidstone: 11:23am On Sep 23, 2024
nairalanda1:
All in all, we should have removed the subsidy on power, make everyone pay for power at market price, and there would be massive improvement in power supply.


We get bad power because we don't pay for power in full. Even now

1. Most Nigerians do not pay the market price for power

2. 40% of Nigerians , if not more, don't pay for power at all.

Run your business that way, and you would lose money well well

The above is why we do not have constant power supply. And why we have shitty power. And why we have blackouts.

Plus, with debt service rising again, government can't afford subsides for power.

But most of you don't want to hear the truth....so we will blame corruption, the Hausas, tinubu, gej, buhari, the army, etc etc.

Tomorrow we will cheer for the guy who chases nepa people from disconetctin him....a big part of the problem.

I love the tears of rage of the people who throw tantrums at the above posts...yes all of you.

NO matter how angry you are...electricity costs money to generate and transmit.

Also, the cost of things do not respect your feelings, or mine.

As times goes on people are tired of bias and half done stories from the stable of imperialist. Everyone want to tell their stories themselves. Some people are already leaving facebook and instagram knowing fully once you have different opinion, either your content is removed or your account is disabled.

Kudos to the RT and other powerful media houses. I hope someday African leaders will wake up and start planning ahead instead of looting money as if they will need it in their next life.
Shut up. The same African leaders whose image you launder daily. Idiots like you are the real problem of Africa

ShogunNoName:
Russia is in danger.

Who else has noticed how this evil western globalomanics are using Ukraine to test all Russian air water and land defenses?

I have a feeling this Ukraine vs Russia war is one big CIA data gathering campaign to fully assess the Russian defense and offense capabilities before they decide to attack Russia .

The last two years of Ukraine being on the defence and eventually pushing Russia out of Ukraine was just to test the Russian attack capabilities now Ukraine has entered deep into Russia the CIA are just assessing the defense capabilities of Russia.

I won't be surprised if next year the West launch an evil attack on Russia.

One thing about the west is never underestimate how much evil they are capable of.

Fact of the matter is that traders are increasing prices arbitrarily and causing relentless inflation due to ignorance. Yes transport and labor costs has increased but production and transportation is being done in bulk so economy of scale should kick in as the cost is spread over multiple units of the products.
People are just too greedy.
