You are confused.

OrlandoOwoh:
The kingmakers make recommendations. The emergence of anybody as the king rests with the Governor. That is the way it has been since the colonial days.

Since colonial days ke Ahaha kilodeeeeee

Confuse in what sense except u wnt use fowl languages here

drbre:
Op is correct and consistent with the facts of history...at the risk of sounding immodest and atttacting all sorts of remarks, i am indeed a direct descendant of Ooni Derin Ologbenla . Our clan eventually settled in Oke-Igbo but we still maintain our ties with the Giesi Ruling house at Moore in Ife. My dad used to tell us about this Prince thing and our ties with Ife and this made me curious to dig out the facts about it..Ti ori ban joba loola , u may av heard it first from here.

My Grandfather is Ooni AdeRemi , Our Family Compound is at Iremo, My my father's Village Estate is in Moore.

To die or not to die? Thats the game he seems to be playing acording to his chiefs.

Abeg they shiuld let him rest already

In this 20th century someone is still going about with gong to announce the death of a king... Well, talk about traditions...



Never new a diety could die.

Tradition is tradition.

Well, personally, if it's the tradition, it shld be observed. Minus the "killings and other negative stuffs dt's done in the name of traditions' I am in full support of us maintaining certain aspects of our traditions. It's sad to see we are gradually loosing touch of who we "were". Kids don't speak their native languages anymore, peeps are changing d way and manner dr names are written to English (Femi to Phemmy, etc) and a whole lot.

We need to maintain our history/culture, derive pride in them... (cos they really matter).

We got lots to learn from China, Malaysia, India and even our northern brethren in ds country abt becoming world leaders without loosing ourselves in the process!!!

That means the contenders can bribe the Chief priest shey?

why ar ppl still talking abt LIES of d kabiyesi bein alive or waja? its bn explained clearly enof dt he can't be openly declared waja until certain rites ar performed. meaning though he's departed bur our custom forbids that he b just declared asuch like an ordinary man. wuteva d culture of d british or americans wch u all follow now may be, our beautiful culture&tradition remains ours& must be duely honoured.

THIS IS AFRICA MY FRIEND, in Africa, we respect tradition, Culture and ethics. that is why we are unique... in England, a new prince or princess can never be unveil without prior approval from the Queen..........even in 5000000000century, we will still remain Africans...even the white envy out culture
.. GOD BLESS NIGERIA

hmmmmmmm.......just passing by.hmmmmmmm.......just passing by.hmmmmmmm.......just passing by.

Sinbad2:
Madam if you are in Ife or have someone there tell him or her not to stay late at NIGHT till new king is crowned ok nd when I said late I mean 10:30pm upward shalom.sebi omo yoruba ni e kilode to n soro bayi

Hmm. So something is going on.

.

Tolexander:
something I don't really understand.

I guess Oke Igbo has no King but Baale.

Very possible he was an Ooni(Head of Ife) and Baale of Oke Igbo (head of Oke Igbo).

Ooni Derin Ologbenla was a powerful king.

The Ologbenlas in Ife seem to have their village towards that side(Ifetedo Oke Igbo). Not really sure anyway.

No Ooni Derin Ologbenla was the one of the founding fathers of Okeigbo, he was also the 2nd Baale of Okeigbo. He led the war to rescue the Osemawe of Ondo from his subjects, after defeating the Ondo army he decided to settle at the place, he spent the night before invading the Ondo Army which was 'over the bushes' (where the name OKEIGBO was derived)

When he was declared Ooni of Ife, he preferred to stay in his new found home (Okeigbo) to staying in Ile-Ife

Dexema:
I guess There's some process to announcing the death of the king, also inhabitants of the palace have to move their stuff so as not to risk losing them.
But most importantly some of these kings do die “momentarily“ and rumours of their death spread only for them to “return“ with the claim of just being ill.But this one has gone on for long enuf,I think the dude is really gone (waja).

Thanks for the clarification so far ....but what do u mean by momentary death ..u mean temporary death ?

But the Punch of today says the Ooni is alive

dapsonlou:
Ooni Derin Ologbenla was the Son of Odudua, Generations before Adelekan. Ikorodu was not Lagos then.

Ooni Derin Ologbenla is Ooni Adelekan Olubuse 1's predecessor. Not generations before Adelekan.

Mr. Sijuwade, crowned Oba on December 6, 1980 is widely believed to have passed away since July 28, 2015.

Oba Sijuwade

masseratti:
well when it comes to traditional rulers,thr Governors has the last say on who ascend the throne.

By the way when last did anyone hear about the Oba of benin?

lolzzzz,you funny though, btw am yoruba,but hey no matter their legend or stories,they do really have similarities, i was made to understand that the oonis are not blood descendants of Oduduwa,they are more of a custodian to his crown,his blood descendants are the Oba of benin, Alafin and the rest.I adore the binis sha they upheld tradition better.

Thats pretty correct o, they are blood relations both,and thats why their culture and traditions are similar

OrlandoOwoh:
The Governor of each state appoints traditional rulers. The present (or dead) Ooni, Okunade Sijuade was appointed by Governor Bola Ige of (Old) Oyo State in 1980.

The Prime minister of Britain is appointed by the Queen doesn't mean she picks who becomes prime minister

No governor can choose who becomes Ooni

OrlandoOwoh:
You are confused.

Mr. Just sharrap. . You are the confused one here

You are as confused as the person you are trying to defend. Do king makers choose one person to be Ooni or several people from the ruling houses, among whom the Governor picks from? Apply common logic in your arguement.

macof:

The case of the Prime Ministership is quite different. Can the Crown refuse the leader of the party with majority from being the Prime Minister? Go read how Lamido Sanusi became the Emir of Kano after his name and those of others got to the table of the Governor from the kingmakers.
