Of all problems in Nigeria this is what the SW is dishing out. Either theyre insulting their legends like Fela or Akintola or they're degrading their Obas. You guys should show some respect na.

Some of you are just chronically daft.
How is Alaafin not respecting himself? Is a throne now about age? So, because he's not gett up to greet some other obas and because he's young, then it means that he's not respect himself?

Fake news or 'testing the waters'?

Nigerian politicians and their style. They will use one pseudo-Facebook page to fly a kite, and if the wind is too strong, they quickly issue a press release to deny it. We see you!
This one must be a fake news propaganda attempt by A-looter Propaganda Congress, APC to demarket Adeleke to Ife voters since they have no record of performance to run on.

Yoruba forum, because Seun told your tribalistic mind that huh

edet19892015:
Unless you understand your role in society, you can never make any meaningful contribution.

According to the Greeks, they are three types of people on Earth,
1. The idiots,
2. The tribesmen, and
3. The citizens.


Studies show only 10% of Africans are citizens.
The remaining 90% are either tribesmen or idiots.

1. When the Greeks used the word "Idiot", they did not use it as a curse word.
Idiots are people who just don’t care.
If they sit for exams, they will cheat.
If they are in government they will steal.

An idiot does not care at all, if he eats bananas he throws the peels anywhere instead of putting them in a trash bin.

IDIOTS won't attend monthly neighborhood meetings. They won't pay security dues. They won't contribute to community development. Even when they see or know about something that will harm others in the community they won't report it. When they see/know/have something that will benefit their community they won't share.

In fact, Idiots don't care to register for or vote in an election, yet they complain the most. If they register to vote, IDIOTS will sell their votes for peanuts.

According to the Greeks, some societies have more idiots than tribesmen and citizens.

2. The next set of people are "Tribesmen", these are people that look at everything from the point of view of their tribe.

These are people that believe in you only if you are part of their tribe.
It can be terrible to have a tribesman as a leader, he will alienate the rest.

When the Greeks talk about tribes, it’s not just about ethnicity, they also consider religion, gang membership, group membership, party membership and even cult membership as a tribe.

A great percentage of Africans are tribesmen, because they view everything from the point of view of their tribes. They trust only their tribesmen

3. The last group are "Citizens".
These are people who like to do things the right way.
They will respect traffic light rules even if no one is watching them.

They drive within speed limits.
They respect the laws, and won’t cheat in exams.
In government, they won’t steal.
They are compassionate and give to others to promote their well-being.

Citizens often promote projects that benefit everyone.
The Greeks called this group "The Citizens".

Some countries have more citizens than tribesmen and idiots, others have so many idiots.

A tribesman can become a citizen through orientation.
And an idiot can become a citizen by training and constant enforcement of the law.

But things fall apart if you elect an idiot or tribesman to lead you if he has not been reformed.

Where do you belong? Are you an idiot, a tribesman or a citizen? Reflect on your life.
Reflect about your immediate community, city, state and nation.

How is this fair to other paramount kings there?
Is he the only king in the state?
Is he the only paramount king in the state?

If it's about Alaafin, some ọmọ ẹrus will say ọyọ empire no longer exists. But when it comes to a glorified king (ọọni), they'll say we must preserve history, culture and heritage.




Olori alade gbogbo according to yapapa



Facts and history is not based upon whatever nonsense you have in your head or your personal opinion.
Historically, Alaafin is greatest and biggest Yoruba king.
Oyo = yoruba
All others adopted it.
Ìfẹ is never known as Yoruba from the beginning, and they never even accepted that they were Yorubas.

If we want to maintain that those kingdoms and seats are to be prepared based on history, culture, facts, culture and heritage, then ọọni is not close to challenging Alaafin in any way. He's way below him.

If these politians can't disrespect other paramount kings like ọba of Benin, sultan of sokoto and others, WHY SHOULD SUCH NONSENSE HAPPEN IN ỌYỌ STATE?
nobody hate the throne, but the person occupying it does not have leadership quality, i blamed MAKINDE who imposed him.

Yoruba people should stop disturbing us with their traditional kingship tussle... This is getting out of hand. They aren't the only people with kings...

They should put their houses in order ! Enough of this disgrace
Close your eyes next time you see a news about Yourba kingship. 😂

Nobody forced you to read. You even spent some of your time that you could have used on something more meaningful to you to come and write a comment on a thread which you claim you’re tired of.

Let me start from your question, such nonsense will happen and continue to happen in oyo state because you oyo folks are full of nonsense just as you are doing currently on nairaland but am glad that Ibadans are standing on their right and so also ogbomoso. Now back to those jargons you wrote up there?

In your Lineage let us know if your grandfather is way below his grandson?

Secondly, the Oranmiyan that founded your Oyo where is he from? And didn’t he come back to ile-ife to become the 6th Ooni.

Thirdly, does it mean we ile oodua adopted the name Yoruba which others will argue emanated from Fulani changes the fact that we are all from ile-ife.

It is important you understand the stool of the progenitor(Oduduwa) and the source of Yoruba race is not in Oyo ile it’s in Ile-ife and all everything should be done to respect and preserve that stool that is why no paramount king in osun or anywhere dear stand up to challenge the Ooni even the government of the day knows this and that is why the Ooni is permanent chairman of Traditional rulers council of Southern Nigeria and co chairman of Traditional rulers council of Nigeria which your Oloyo is just a floor member.

Ire ooo.

the dafft one here is you. Has he accounted for the life of Oyotunji who was brutalized in his palace and kpaied? Is he the first person to occupy that stool in our lifetime, only him will disrespect Ooni but bow down to greet Sulu Gambari who is currently sitting on a throne that is part of old oyo empire you love to fantasize about?
Wake up, all empires died the moment Nigeria was created. Under our constitution his position is ceremonial. If he doesn't want to be reminded about that then he must behave himself
