I was terrified when l watched that video.What autocracy and absolute monarchy can cause.No one is allowed to criticise or share their opinion about the king.To even think that the mob that were mainly young people,would take part and uphold such savagery and dastardly act.

One of the most ridiculous sights of the modern day is seeing mere mortals ascribing divinity to themselves under the guise of traditional monarchs or religious leaders. Even more pathetic are regular people who believe this to be true.
That is why Edo state especially Benin city is backward !

Resist the urge to shalaye.

Oba lil Wayne's staff of office is still on Jiji for sale.

It was his subjects that put it up for sale not me.

Oluwo is still one of your so called revered obas.

The other in Ibadan has a song dedicated to him by one of his subjects. Remember the waray laughing waray diss track.

Oga wipe your tears you hia.
No take that clown seriously!

How can you ever understand?

This is beyond you.

The Oba is a symbol and custodian of the Bini people's heritage , history and customs .

If you had an institution like the throne of the Oba with its highly sophisticated and well documented history that dates back centuries, you won't be disgracing your collective selves claiming you are lost Joos.

LMFAO!

So no worry, you can never understand.
Between the throne of Oba of Benin and that of the King of England, which is more sophisticated, well documented and dates back centuries?

My brother, one Ovonramwen Nogbaisi, also called Overami was an Oba of Benin. He was deposed and kicked out of the Palace. Not only that, he was banished to Calabar.

Your Mr. Eheneden Erediauwa AKA Ewuare only controls 4 Local Governments and he's a nobody. They deposed a whole Sultan of Sokoto, who is Mr. Ewuare that they can't depose him?
From all you wrote, it depicts a mind filled with bigotry and ill wishes, you can write whatever you want, but I stand on what I stated, that no one, and I repeat no one can bring about the actualization of deposition, it wont occur, not in this life or in aeons to come.

Striping a Nollywood legend like Don Pedro naked simply because of a disagreement with the Oba is extremely barbaric and condemnable. I don’t like Obaseki but I join him in totally condemning the action of the Oba and his supporters. Oba of Benin is not God and so must operate within the ambit of the law and civility.
I don't think the king knows that, because the bini's worship him like a god ,so to speak.He should be told by those that are educated around him that there are laws in the country guiding everyone.Nobody is above the law,he is just a king

LoL

Oba of benin nor they go transfer o.
We people of bini respect our Oba policy pass other policies in the state.

Not in support of the act by few but not accepting any insult of my Oba.


Bini Oba nor be government appointment but na follow come from God.

Re: I Am Surprised That Oba Of Benin Will Stoop This Low – Obaseki by Diligence: 6:32am On Dec 30, 2025
We heard that when Oba Ovonramwen Nogbaisi was deposed, that certain Obaseki took over, or somewhat that The British appointed him or handed over to him. Whatever, nature abhors any vacuum, I know. And since then concomitant battles between these two HV never ceased.

A human being deserves respect & royalty should HV nothing to do with thuggery, bullying, et al

The Obasekis also are Royals Technically, & should be respected.

Greetings to the Royal Citizens of Edo State. Make una apologise, forgive & settle b4 New Year... But hold those thugs accountable otherwise they may continue to tarnish the image of the Oba. Na who send dem ?

Your is noted...
U made a strong point
They brought the man to the Palace and the chiefs rebuked the thugs and told them that the Oba is not aware of their actions and allowed the man to go. At that particular time, the oba was in church thanking God for a successful Igue festival. It is funny that greed has turned obaseki to a fugitive that he will be banished from Benin. So sad

Oba gha to kpe'ee!

Respect our traditional stool or avoid us.

While I do not support physical assault, Oba Oba Ewuare has the power to banish him from our great Bini kingdom. He could have done that instead of this barbaric action of his supporters. Alternatively, Ayelala could have been used to invoke curses on the man.You are a fool and part of them. Nobody has right to banish anyone this time of civilization


What do I know?

You need they benin b4 you go fit understand. One thing about benin people is they don't play with the oba . In my opinion I think some over zealous benin guys caught the man , roughen him up and took him to the palace to beg the oba . Benin people like oba to the point them done slap like two people fathers because of matters for UK.
what now happened them weren't they arrested. Stop talking rubbish, you can't do that in the UK and go free

I'm from Edo state but the truth must be told. You can compare Edo state to ikorodu. Let me explain has big has ikorodu is other part of lagos developing ikorodu refuse to develope because of thee strong hold on traditional and custom believes which has enhanced the growth and development of ikorodu just like edo state development will always be slow cos of customs and believes such has this. When other state like Enugu, Lagos, Rivers eycare growing my dear state is buried in unnecessary customs that aids development.
You are right, I do tell people that of all places in Lagos, Ikorodu is one of the few places I can't live, not for anything, but for cultural beliefs that is not in tune with civilisation.
I don't know why an urban settlement in this age should still be shutting down major areas to celebrate cultural beliefs.
There was a day last year or this year that they shut down the town and people couldn't enter Ikorodu from afternoon till like 5am the next day, causing serious gridlock into Lagos metropolis

The way they carry that oba of Benin you will think that he can sleep on 2 beds at the same time, as if he does not poo or fart, bad news always linked to Benin..if not cultism it will be ritual, or prostitution, no technology discovery no innovations but just empty chest beating over petty things by grown up men, what a shame
Wit dry, bad and dirty roads. Na that their road dey pain me pass. With their dirty red muddy water.

I will put my respect for the revered Oba on hold, until this matter is investigated. The more he and his palace fail to address this matter, the more damaging it may be.
Keep your respect.

Even in the video as soon as the crowd arrived, they were reprimanded by the palace chiefs and told that the Oba had gone to Church (Holy Aruosa).

Also in the first video released by don pedro, he confirmed that the Oba was not involved contrary to what the mob claimed.


Yet ex Governor Obaseki will still look for any opportunity to drag the Oba’s name in the mud, because he wasn’t allowed to convert artefacts to his private property, or because he lost an election.


Come to Benin and show that disrespect, then you will understand that in Benin, when a child insults his parents, it is onlookers that give him the injection of discipline.
