lol..you dey reason careless....Who reach Obj for that room?

''WHO REACH'' MEANS WHAT?

OBASANJO IS A BLOODY MILITARY DICTATOR FROM A COLONIAL ADMINISTRATIVE SYSTEM.

HE IS WORTHLESS NEXT TO A TRADITIONAL AFRICAN MONARCH.

AND HE IS VERY STUPID AND INSOLENT TO TRY TO PLACE HIS STUPID ZOMBIE SELF OVER OUR TRADITIONAL INSTITUTIONS DATING BACK THOUSANDS OF YEARS BEFORE HIS FATHER WAS BORN.

Age wise he is more deserving and worthy of it.
I also like the way the ooni abstained from making an issue out of it.

No matter how young a king is ,he is still the king over him.

He is no longer ther president

My father would say "Areeeemuuu, Segun, you're a troublesome boy!" Someone said the effect of old age is catching up with Baba Obasanjo. No, that's not true. Baba is naturally stubborn. He hates being antagonized in whatever form. If you realize that this same old man will still postrate for the same Ooni if he sees him regardless of the fact that Baba Obasanjo is almost old enough to be his grandfather. I know Baba very well. May he live longer.

If I tell you say any 4 star general Senior any former or current governor or minister nko
Dat one na another one

Na retired naval chief boys block wike and him entourage that time from moving further with their rascality

And shey u hear say even Tinubu self no fit talk for that matter that day

My brother and sisters, u need to fear the military even if na small, just fear Dem

Me ah know say d matter pain wike more say even president no fit talk for the matter

I know Nigerian soldiers sometimes misbehave a lot, and they are somehow lazy when it comes to fighting insurgency, but na the presidency and top political appointee we go blame for that part

But El sir and ma
Military get power, forget play
and that's because they have their own constitution, assuming they take over, Dem go cancel that our yeye constitution wey we think say e strong like say Dem tear paper throway

Be that as it may, Obasanjo no be ordinary president, though he is a useless man too just like the current and past presidents

But Obasanjo na both former military head of state and former civilian president

U self u see that kine thing
Ah go lie for u?

So you can't make your comment without mentioning the west? West is living rent free in you people's lives.
While in 1989 Babangida adjusted the constitution it was done by different panels and committees that comprised of people from North West East and South. Were you even born then? All these kids on NL.

When discussing kingship, please do not put our revered Oba in the same sentence with the political Ooni.

On the point you raised, nowhere in the world has a monarch ruled in the interest of the people than a democratically elected president.

Valid talk...

He was right to demand it, as the Kings have long been under the Presidents. I wonder if any ex-president or current one would pull this stunt with the oba of Bini or Sultan of sokoto. They wouldn't dare as those ones hold more political power and can stand toe to toe with most of these proxies the slave masters imposed on the nation.

But if na werey like my Royal Self. I wouldn't care wherever I sat.

Which oba of Benin or Sultan? Why were they conquered in the first place by the British? All traditional rulers remain under the political leadership of the day. Abacha's removal of the sultan in 1996 underscored that

You need to visit the most intelligent eldest person in your lineage for extensive clarification...Think before you open your filthy mouth...

At least you could acknowledge that I have intelligent elders in my lineage, which is what you totally lack.

In the world where I live, old age symptoms and Alzheimer’s disease are recognised, regarded and treated as such. The very reason why the elders who show the symptoms are properly cared for and specifically treated.

That is your personal headache. Someone's birthday celebration is not an official function, it's a social gathering and inconsequential in terms of enforcement of official protocol.

If that flies over your head pls feel free to ignore my comments.

You're correct. But I'm telling you that these two hold enough political power too. So my doubts of same happening to them.

And as, for the defeat of the old oba.... He was schemed against by the British. Overpowered with both weapons and brains as they used his own chiefs against him. Same happened to old Jaja. they were using melee weapons while their enemies could cut them down from a distance.

As for the sultan. If it were up to my Royal Self, that title would never appear except for history books.
