Makinde Approves Prince Abimbola Akeem Owoade As New Alaafin.

Prince Lukman Adelodun Gbadegesin, who had been selected by the Oyo Mesi will no longer be the Iku Baba Yeye.

Gov. Makinde should not destroy the great Alafin empire.

I hope uncle Makinde isn't borrowing a leaf from Ademola Adeleke and the Ilesa debacle...

Congrats to the Alaafin elect.

Who's the mouthpiece of the gods, Oyomesi or the Governor?. After 3 years delay, something is fishy. The effects of British colonialism on African tradition.

Do you know what you are saying?
In your subconscious mind you think Governor will consent to anyone not approved by oyomesi.

Governors can sack and appoint kings then it should be scrapped. Alafin and other kings in Nigeria surrendered their sovereignty to the white man , some fought and still lost to the same white man. We are wasting state funds to cater for these numerous kings which is bs. The British monarchy is still there because they generate billions in tourism. What do these kings generate?
