If the Obaseki camp takes back power he’ll be deposed, defanged or the kingdom will be split into smaller kingdoms like they did to Sanusi in Kano emirate
You don't know Benin. It has been tried in the past with severe consequences. Then Military Administrator of Edo state, Navy Captain Ibeh Onyearugbulem was goaded into attempting the split of current Benin into three chiefdoms by the Isama of Benin, Chief Gabriel Osawaru Igbinedion, who hoped to inherit one of them: Omo N'Oba N'Orionwem, Omo N'Oba N'Ovia Oghoreti in addition to Omo N'Oba N'Edo. What happened? Benin chiefs rose as a body in condemnation and issued a curse on the MIlad. I remember the headline: BENIN CHIEFS UP IN ARMS AGAINST MILAD, BECAUSE HE DISREPECTED THEIR KING, OBA EREDIAUWA. Chief Igbinedion was declared Oghionoba. The upshot was 1. The Milad lost his son in mysterious circumstances. 2. Was removed as Milad 3. Died in his hotel room in still mysterious circumstances. Chief Igbidenion had to go cap in hand to beg the Oba. Case closed.

Oh, that one. Well, he didn't actually try to remove the Oba. More like telling the Oba to behave himself (seems he perceived the Oba as not favouring Lucky Igbinedion, who was his own preferred candidate).

But, yeah, Bini folks are ready to do anything for their Oba.

People don't respect the Oba for nothing, his bloodline were great men doing great things thousands of years ago, even before the British empire the Benin had an empire.

What state are you from?

Can you tell me one great feat your tribe or state is renowned for?

I will give you a list of the greatness of the Benin people.

1.In the 1974 edition of the Guinness Book of Records, it described the Benin City walls as the largest earthwork carried out before the Mechanical period. Part of the walls were believed to be about 65 ft (20 m) tall. The ancient walls in the Benin Kingdom were transformed to the access point or gates to the city.

2. 1. Benin(Edo) Bronzes🇳🇬: A collection of bronze plaques and artifacts from the Benin Empire, valued at over $1 billion. 2. Great Hymn to Aten🇪🇬: An ancient Egyptian hymn inscribed on a stone stele, valued at over $10 million..

3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benin_Moat

Read and digest and show respect, stop ranting because you came from a tribe that can't lace the shoes of the bloodline of the Oba.
And have done a research of your own bloodline?

This Oba is a liar! He was deeply involved in the public humiliation of that Obaseki guy. So, the Oba of Benin can’t own up to his own actions?! If that Obaseki guy sues him, he won’t escape prosecution. A mere one small local government Oba feeling funky!
The Oba has made himself a deity and the bini people are to blame for that, no man is God, No one is above prosecution. This man was almost stripped naked to his gbola - damn, there has to be consequences for this - The palace has a recent history under this Oba of stripping people naked and giving them
erosion water to drink and asking them to swear allegaince to the throne, that is a crime against humanity.


If a larger-than -life figure with massive followers in their tens of millions like (then Former President of the USA) Donald Trump can be made to go to court and tried for alleged crimes, even though they were ridiculous charges, then no traditional ruler in Nigeria should be immuned from prosecution!


If Interpol never start to pick these local champion African despotic rulers at foreign airports for human rights abuse, arresting them with handcuffs and prosecuted in foreign lands like Ekweremadu …. their eyes no go clear… 😠

It's very important that the Oba disassociate himself from that shameful acts of some overzealous subjects.
So you believe the lies from the Palacehuh The Oba was deeply involved which is why the victim was taken to the Palace. The man deserves to be dethroned.

i don't think that would be possible. The only thing he would do is reduce the allocation to the monarch or other benefits the monarch recieves.

You are just a bigot and a hater, I wish you were in Benin, but you are behind a faceless forum, spewing trash and writing tantrums. No be your fault, na internet give you the opportunity.

You people just talk like oba of Benin was never sent on exile.

We know the stool is revered but they will depose him and nothing will happen. Benin will boil and cool down.

Nobody is above law. Las las everybody, including the oba, must bend to signed law. Except of course, in the Nigerian way of politics, he is aligned with federal might. Or a later government reinstates him, but by then had been first of all, deposed.

He was beaten else where and dragged to the palace by thugs. The whole drama didn’t begin there. Pedro is a Bini man who knows how revered the oba is in Benin. The issue of oba in Benin is like religious fanaticism in the north. Sometimes by wisdom you avoid problems.

The oba didn’t need to authorize any assault. It is the default response of the people once you speak derogatorily about the monarch. Even police nor go put body.
So the Oba watched as this assault was taking place right within his palace and said or did nothing?! That was a crime scene and the Oba cannot in anyway dissociate himself from this.

What exactly was his crime? So wishing edo people to live long and prosper is now a crime to you, even Oba himself distance himself from such shameful act and here you are upholding it, according to your argument, Oba alone should live long while the rest of Benin people die young?
Have you put onto context how and where he said it? Watch the video to know Don Pedro knew what he was doing.

Godwin Uhundan that was pumping him up, why didn't he himself go to the same Benin.
