Are you not ashamed of yourself with this nonsense you typed ? A first class king being forced to vacate seat for another first class seat and his wife ?

Una no dey shame ?

chief Gabriel igbinedion is never a King, don't mistake a chief for a king. Esama of Benin is a chieftaincy title, so don't equate that first class title you are coming up with on him. Meanwhile, that gathering is a church not a social gathering, therefore protocols is relaxed because all of them are before the king of kings.

Farmerforgoats:
When the Alaafin moved his kingdom to Agọọja, Itbbecame Ọyo ile. You should know better than make these comments on public platforms

He's Baale of Aago oja and he should stop trying to call himself what he's not.

Lamasta:
As old as you are you don't know the Oba of Benin

If not you are senseless, you can see from the video that the two Obas are not fighting for supremacy but sift to accommodate the oba of Benin! The two Obas are reverend and respected in the south

PulaPower:
Mischievous post..

From the video, no one told him anything. He stood up himself. He doesn’t need to be told..

They both share the same tradition..

please watch the video again. Somebody told him to shift when Chief was coming.

It's very sad that this new Alaafin doesn't have class,he is just a baby king.

Christistruth03:
Igbinedion has already apologised and said it was an unintentional Mistake
This is the same Igbinedion with Alaafin later at the party

Alaafin will just have to forgive the mistake as Ooni also
forgave Alaafin for his own indiscretion

Everything is wrong with this pic. First of all why should he carry his gold-platted throne from oyo to the great benin kingdom? There can be no two kings in a kingdom. If someone else dis this in yorubaland there would be wailing & gnashing of teeth all over yorubaland. Also is that a picture of white Jesus on his throne? The clowning is too much

They too should be in one place what are they look for ?any way that is good for him

Reports claim that the Alaafin of Oyo was told to vacate his seat to make room for Chief Gabriel Igbinedion and his wife.

The incident has sparked discussions about respect, tradition, and protocol at public events.

Power of money,. In Nigeria nobody respects you when you don’t have money you maybe having a leadership position but without finance nobody cares just make your calculations Alaafin of Oyo is an elder and a traditional ruler while Igbenedion is a chief and a wealthy man that’s why you see this country can never genuinely have a leader because we worship money too much

GodPunishOsu:
Wetin baale of Aago oja dey find everywhere?stay somewhere you won't listen

He's looking for party jollof, e don dey hungry am tey tey
Don't mind dem, dem no dey hear word, since dem royal stool dey itch dem for yansh

Akuruoulo:
u mean the family that marries their blood sister ? sacrilegious ruler

don't say that,you know nothing about the culture

RISQUE:
Esama of Benin is greater than that Alaafin and the entire people he is leading.

Ruling that one acre of land in edo state.

emapeteum:
Really! ignorant people everywhere. I blame our traditional rulers who bastardised the traditional tools because of peanut to this.

Don't mind that person you quoted. The Alaafin must have been the guest of honour.

It's just poor protocol. Chief Igbinedion as the celebrant perhaps needed to get up to go the alter later. So, it made sense for him to sit near the edge, so the Alaafin wouldn't need to be getting up often. It could have been better arranged from the beginning.

Edo people would not disrespect an August visitor like the Alaafin.

People just say nonsense online.

aribisala0:
You have a point but when Olubuse was there was there movie premiere?
We cannot say for sure whether he would have gone. Those two that you mentioned many did not know them in their 40s
It takes a lot of discipline for a 40 year old to sit at home like an Eboe
Times change.
Anyway this Alaafin has started on a wrong note
I saw the visit of Soun of Ogbomosho to Tinubu
He went there straight to the point
This is what I want the federal government to do for my people A B C D etc totally on point
Alaafin went to Aso Rock too what did he ask for Oyo people? Nothing
No ideas, no class
Very embarrassing

There was movie premiere , He died 2015 .
He commanded class , elegance and self respect.
Imagine a whole Ojaja, present arole Oodua going to a movie premiere and birthday party ?
Chai
Sometimes I wonder if these present day monarchs are truly som of the soil

This is just making a mountain out of a molehill. It's only natural that the younger man makes way for the older man Alafin or not.

The Protocol officials should have properly guided the VIPs and the Oyo Kingdom monarch on the right spot to sit. The Oba or Alaafin of Oyo Kingdom is a direct descendant of Oranmiyan while the Oba of Benin is ALSO a direct descendant of Oranmiyan. This is why he was given a special spot NEXT to the Esama of Benin.

For the highly irresponsible and ignorant troll on page 1 who posted negatives and insults about the Alaafin of Oyo, the Esama of Benin, Chief Gabriel Igbinedion's mother is from the Kingdom of Usen in Ovia South West LGA of Edo State, where the current King of Usen, Oba Oluogbe 11 is the direct descendant of Prince Afelogiyan (the first ruler of Usen) who is the older biological brother of Prince Oranmiyan through Okanbi, who was the last son of Oduduwa.

So, the Alaafin of Oyo and the Oba of Benin are direct blood relatives and the esteemed Esama of Benin is a High Chief of the Benin Royal Palace. Period.

Una with una Political Alaafins. Soon u go hear say him na fraudster for US

he's probably Obidient

DEROX:

AndroBlaze:
Even me that does not like the way the man has started, sees absolutely nothing wrong with this, as Igbinedion is too old for anyone to be doing gragra for.

Bloggers as usual pretending like they fell from heaven and don't understand context, all for the sake of cheap views.

If Oba of Benin was on that bench, even Igbonedion would dare not sit on it. You would not find the Oba of Benin at such occasion Sha. The man too dey respect himself..

Good bless the Alaafin of Oyo for displaying the true ethos of an omoluabi in the face of this provocative and disparaging treatment from his supposed host.

This is the fault of those in charge of protocols who should have ab intio directed the revered monarch to the seat assigned to him and not treat him like a gatecrasher.

All the same, his host owes it a duty to formally apologize to his vvip guest for the demeaning treatment.

If not, next time, the Alaafin must choose his invites carefully.

All this one na see finish cause am.

Your post is highly IRRESPONSIBLE, ignorant and you are neither an Edo nor a Yoruba BUT an "Ibo boy" based on your previous posts. You have NO idea of historical events. Learn to RESPECT others and stay off talking on a public forum about what you know absolutely NOTHING about.

For your information and that of other younger folks reading this post, the Oba or Alaafin of Oyo Kingdom is a direct descendant of Oranmiyan, while the Oba of Benin is ALSO a direct descendant of Oranmiyan who the current Oba of Benin, Oba Ewuare II affirmed in a viral video right BELOW on the day of his 2016 coronation ceremony speech was the FIRST EVER Oba of Benin after the Ogiso era ended. The Oranmiyan Dynasty in Benin was started by Oranmiyan as the Oba over 800 years ago [BUT he didn't stay long enough before returning to Ufe (Ife) and then ruled the Oyo Kingdom] and his biological son, Oba Eweka 1 born of an aboriginal mother who was the daughter of a noble man from Egor. This is why the Alaafin of Oyo was given a special spot NEXT to the Esama of Benin. Oyo Kingdom and Benin Kingdom have ancestral royal family ties via Oba Oranmiyan. Period.

Further more, the esteemed Esama of Benin, Chief Gabriel Igbinedion's biological mother is from the Kingdom of Usen in Ovia South West LGA of Edo State, where the current Olu Awure of Usen, Oba Oluogbe II is the direct descendant of Prince Afelogiyan (the first traditional ruler of Usen) who is the older biological brother of Prince Oranmiyan who both migrated out from Ife centuries ago to "Ife Kekere" now called Usen now located in modern Edo State (Ife is pronounced as "Ufe" in Ile Ife dialect OR "Uhe" in Usen and Benin-Edo dialect) through Okanbi, who was the last son of Oduduwa.

So, the Alaafin of Oyo and the Oba of Benin are direct blood relatives and the esteemed Esama of Benin is a High Chief of the Benin Royal Palace. This is why Oyo Empire and Benin Empire NEVER attacked or waged war against one another over the centuries because of the royal family ancestral relationships.

What is the statue of a whiteman doing on the left of Alaffin's seat?

White Jesus now lol, I thought they were traditionalists and if he is going to combine Christianity with their idol worship why not a black Jesus.

But it’s the sad truth na…. A chief commanding a supposed king to stand up from a chair😂😂. It’s unheard of.
