Lol, If only you knew what has gone on in his selection.

The king-makers have been absolutely corrupted and have abandoned all traditions in order to make him King.

I pray his reign brings progress to Ife cause otherwise his family name would be ruined

I'm sorry but this post shows you are disconected from Ife and the selection process.

If you were in the know, you would know Obalufe probably knew they made a mistake with the Sijuade's selection from Ogboru and decided to correct the ills. This is why some houses took him to court before he passed.

Everything that brought this man on board was done right.

The rotational process was adhered to.

The family was left to do their internal selection.

Other families were allowed to find candidares internally just in case Giesi fails to find anyone worthy.

Giesi was able to present him alongside others from Giesi.

Connection to Ife and constant presence in Ife was considered.

Ifa decided and he was eventually picked.

This is not to say the cheifs did not collect goodies from other contenders when they knew Giesi was likely to get someone to fill in their turn.

very much in IFe, tradition stipulates that the Ooni can not have a living father. So many things have gone wrong in the selection of the Ooni, who I know for a fact bought the throne, The guy spent so much money it would be a grave offence to him not to get the crown


Not as far as Ooniship is concerned.
What I know, from my circle is that you couldn't become a King or a Chief if your father was onthe Opo. You'd have to wait till your Father passes.

He didn't even indicate interest.

Or you're saying candidates in Lafogido, Osinkola and Ogboru should be considered?

It is Giesi's turn, if he spent money to secure his family's turn then good. You should fault people from other houses buying transformers, Suvs for chiefs, mounting bill boards, traveling to Kano when it is not their family's turn.

There is nothing to argue.

Did Ifa not know his father was alive before it picked him amongst other Giesi contenders? Abi o fe ma pe ifa ni oniro abi Ifa se eke ni?

What is wrong with this generation?

. NO confusion here. What u cant allow others to have doesnt mean another person cant. It shows how liberal some yorubas can be. And how united some families can be.

Let me get this straight...
His father is prince while the son is king.
Ok
Father was born a prince and son also was born a prince. Not all princes will become a king.
Eni ti IFA Yan lo gori oye. It's who the oracle has chosen that will be crowned.

So the father will have to prostrate to his son.
His son is no more just an ordinary son now. He is the Ooni of Ife.....Besides, the Father's not complaining.

But there is a general tradition not to crown as king a prince whose father is still alive.
Except the father is a crown king and sitting on the throne then the son can not be king, but all living princes are eligible to become a king once the throne is vacant. It's the duty of the King makers and the oracle to make the people choice.

It has worked from time immemorial within that community and had never led to any social or political upheaval. You have to respect other people's way of life.

Until you realize, it has never happened in the history of Ile-Ife that a King has a living father, I really feel for both of them because , as I know the Ooni stool is very occult, so it is either he tries to negate the necessary rituals which means he would be a partial king unable to participate in many necessary rituals festivals to seal his authority, and may be seen in a different light by the families responsible for maintenance of shrines and worshiping of deities.

Worst case scenario his father may die

Yoruuba culture is funny. How can someone be a king when his father is a common man?.................. In my culture kingship is hereditary. Even high chiefs are hereditary.
