Blood and flesh did not reveal this to you

It takes the Holy Spirit

God bless you
Which Holy Spirit?

Holy Spirit reveal nothing to people who conjure the opposite spirit and do her abominable biddings!

But the ooni is only a priest - the alaafin's subject. Time goes and things change.
Ọọni is the only priest turned King. He occupies two offices

In history, Ooni gave birth to Alaafin & Oba of Benin.
Other babies of Ooni are Olowu, Alaketu, Onipopo, Onisabe, Orangun.
In short, Okanbi (Oduduwa's son & Ooni's Prince) Gave birth to Oranmiyan/Oranyan (Alaafin)

Does the Alaafin have Vitiligo?
Not vitiligo, more like a repulsion to melanin.

Foolish BASTARDS!!! What positive impact exactly has the Alaafin on Yoruba and his own people other than marrying his grand-daughters and wasting public resources on them while the average Nigerian suffers. Yet, you see the foolish Yoruba pple adulating and celebrating such mediocrity! angry

These are one of the major reasons Africa is behind. These guys should all be executed and you'll see how progression would be experienced.
Africa is lagging precisely because of folks like you. Zero respect for anyone or anything.

When it comes to respect, obeisance and genuflection, give to the Yorubas. They so good at it.

na so e suppose be na, when shark enter wata other fishes they show respect.
Unlike the tribe that doesn't have a big king or even show respect for their little kings
King?? You mean to say leaches and liabilities using juju and gods to shine. Collecting huge amount from government for doing nothing but marry many wives, keep concubines, break kola nuts and spit gin on trees called gods. Lol..... Respect indeed.

Why do people think prostrating, bowing, kneeling is respect? It beats my imagination.
