Humility is indeed a virtue.

Baba Iyabo genuflecting does not diminish him or his achievements.

The olu is an overrated title. A king of not more than 250k people.
Wonder why they're adding "of warri" to his title when there are other Kings with much bigger kingdoms in same warri.
Baba must have been carried away by the hocus-pocus blazing momentarily.
what other kingdom pls

Spidermon:
Do you have any idea the kind of paroles Ogunwusi and Tinubu had run together before he became Ooni ?
Inside Nigeria of today, customs are subject to customization. Everything na parole..,

Each of the tribes in Warri has a traditional ruler, for example the traditional ruler of the Itsekiri is the "Olu of Warri" (ibid.). For the Ijaw tribe, the traditional ruler in Warri North is the "Agadegba of Egbema," in Warri South it is "Amakusu of Ogbe-Ijoh" and in Warri Southwest it is "Amakusu of Oge-Ijoh," "Pere of Gbaramatu," and "Pere of Isaba" (ibid.). The traditional leader of the Urhobo tribe in Warri South is "Orosuen of Okere Urho" and "Ovie of Agbassa" (ibid.).

And as such, each tribe and territory stated above with a traditional leader ought to be recognised as kingdoms.

That's not true.

Oba of Benin is the highest royal stool in the Southern Nigeria
Your assertion is laughable,you know ? Well,you have every right to make yourself happy; it's okay ! The picture below was taken in Buckingham palace and it says a lot about the ranking of traditional stools in Nigeria by the Powers that be ! Take a look at where Omo N'Oba was seated by the colonial lords who understand Nigeria more than any Nigerian alive because they have the records in their archives.

Meanwhile,I have tremendous respect for Omo n'oba because that stool belongs to Yoruba. Truly, Oranmiyan met Bini people in ile ibinu (Benin) but as a Yoruba prince from Ile Ife,he had to put in place the Yoruba traditional monarchial system of government (Obaship) when he took over the kingdom. This is why Oranmiyan was the first Oba of Benin. What you had before him were "Ogisos". Any Oba of Benin is a descendant of Oranmiyan; a royal Prince from Ile Ife.

The British are in possession of the above stated facts,hence the sitting arrangement as shown in the picture. Ooni of Ife is a father figure to Oba of Benin and that was why he paid Ooni a visit in his palace shortly after his coronation.
