That his business but for me I think idol worship is not wise ...if you see the oba in person u can prostrate for him as sign of respect but doing it infront of a poster is wrong...Will the oba know that such happened if its wasn't recorded....

We will patiently wait till 2027 when he comes begging for our votes before we show him this receipt.

Don’t get me wrong, I never said Peter Obi will not be President, but he will only be the President of Biafra Eze Gburu-Gburu. grin

You want to put one leg in Biafra by demanding the release of a known Terrorist - Nnamdi Kanu and another leg in Aso Rock by canvassing for our votes? Habaaa! E no fit happen na!

That's Yoruba culture.. both young and old must pay homage to the Oba and that's done by prostrating or bowing to greet the King (no matter the age).
And doing so at a mere image or picture is right shey

Lying down for my brother the Oba is normal among the poor and wretched and never strange.

Nna eh, poverty is a diseases. Look out how their supporters are saying it's the right thing the old man did. Can MC Oluomo, Gani Adams, OGD and the likes prostrate at a mere picture of Olubadan.

I am happy for your culture but we dont throw ourselves in the mud just to greet a fellow human who happens to be a traditional ruler. We may bow but not like you. Everyone has their culture

the boy still went to Ladoja and met him. You that is paid 50k NGN monthly, you cannot see him even if you bury yourself underground in the name of prostration

First of all, they are mates.
Secondly, that boy from agulu represents a people who ascribe a type of dignity to themselves, that prevents them from lying down on the floor, to greet another man who is also flesh and blood.

I wonder what type of spiritual and mental bondage some people are kept in.
The boy from Agulu whose elders were kneeling down to beg a former president and we saw some of their people kissing the slippers of a condemned terrorist. Quit the chestbeating

That is our culture and we are proud of it.

Some people have a culure of kicking their parents to
wake them up in the morning, no qualms.

we dont quarel with them about that as it is their culture.

Here we folow the bile which idrects to respect our
parents and elders and we have no apologies,

Lol. Who beats their chest more than you unnecessarily loud people?

Your elders and kings lie down before Emirs and Sultans, your true rulers.
I understand that It's a posture that comes naturally to a conquered people, who were already in bondage even before the colonial masters came.

To all our totopreneurs sincerely FYI, we hope the Agbado tax man has plans to tax bandits and kidnappers too, and even pastors afterall they re rendering services.

Multiple taxes for those who are trying to survive due to bad policies from delusional professionals like you and zero taxes for those doing a disservice to the nation like yourself.

They do it. Even an octogenarian like Obasanjo prostrates for any Yoruba monarch. They're showing respect to the throne. Yoruba is the most respectful of Nigeria's tribes. That's why they command respect everywhere.

You reap what you sow. Those who easily disrespect elders, continue undecided
