That same God you are talking about said......
Thou shall have no other god(s) besides me
Thou shall not pay homage to any graven image
Nor bow down to them
Nor worship them
For I your God
Am a jealous God.

No servant can successfuly serve 2 masters


He also said the prayers of people who worship Him and other gods are an abbomination befor him

Christians like to shape God and their religion to suit their circumstances.

tell tht to yr Masonic pastors

Those antichrists lambasting him because of his action need repentance. The humble king had shown his humility before the king of kings who had given him life and opportunity to hold a leadership title. I'm impressed by this act of humility and may almighty give him direction.

ANd the story that a man that died for claiming nonsense 2000 years ago in some village in the Middle east is your saviour is not enslavement?

What if Jesus died in Africa
Born of a carpenter
Welcomed by three dibias
With cowries, yams and talismans

What if Jesus died in Africa
Faraway from Mecca
And closer to Abuja,
Aso Rock, his path on Passover

What if Jesus died in Africa
His cross made of rafia
Stoned with mounds of eba
Alomo passed to him as his soul crossed over

But Jesus didnt die in Africa
No eba was stoned at Golgotha
The son of David had no idea whatsoever
That there was a land called Africa.


God that didn't save himself from three nails 2000 years ago and hasn't come back since will save me from what?


HE didn't save all the Christians and Muslims Boko Haram killed in the North. HE didn't destroy the Boko Haram that was supposedly 'spoiling' His Name. Can you see how stupid your God is. Look at all the prayers and tithes and pilgrimage and time Nigerians spend on 'God' business every year and see where we are... Nansenz.. grin grin

Your cars, your phones, your language, your books do not reflect you. You fight for the Gods of the Jews and Arabs. You kill yourself in the name of Allah and Yahweh. And destroy the temples of Chukwu, Olodumare. You insult Esu by calling Him Lucifer. You insult Ekwensu, the great god of war and craftiness, by equating him with Yahweh's archenemy Lucifer. You are deranged, your history is broken, that is why your present is a miserable existence.

My prayer for you is that God will open your eyes and touch you so that you will converted to work for Him just as he did Saul of Tarsus.

Oni of Life was wise to know that there is an everlasting and living God. His name is King of kings and Lord of lords. May God show the oni mercy and cause him not only to know Him but to serve Him.

You are the one with a misrable existence.....its so clear and glaring. if u decide Ekwensu or Lucifer is ur father or god or saviour and i decide that Jesus is my saviour whats ur problem with that?.....if the Ooni decides to kneel in church becos he was a christian before he was crowned the Ooni shouldnt that be his headache? besides a man must have a good reason to kneel before a God other than his apparently u missed that reason!!

The people talking shld answer this question, Who is higher 'God Almighty or Ooni'..... Then d case is solved.


Why would you think a yoruba King should go to a church to seek God Almighty?
Does Olodumare live in a church?
Tinubu once said yoruba Obas are useless. ..now I agree, cus the simple task of being the custodian to the culture and traditions of your ancestors is now too difficult. . It is better to not have an Ooni in Yorubaland than one that doesn't represent the idea of "OONI"

Imagine after being coronated by obatala, Obalufon, Oranfe etc he goes to give thanks to jesus... is this an act befitting for a human being. .king or not?

Many Nigerians have taken to the social media to express their disgust at the action of the newly-crowned Ooni of Ife who was pictured kneeling in a church. They say it is an affront and rubbishing of the traditional African religion which he is supposed to defend, practise and uphold. On the flip side, some others have blasted him for mixing Christianity with traditional African religions. ‘

‘The Queen of England from the lands who brought you Christianity doesn’t kneel in the church of England nor does she kneel for the god or Jesus, but the Ooni of Ife, a sacred lineage and position that preceded that of England, preceded Christianity now feels the need to insult our culture, people, intelligence and dignity by kneeling in some church! This is just disgusting!”- Teekay Arabambi Akin

Still can't bliv some pple still exist without knowing God. Who is Ooni b4 God? where are the previous kings, I mean his ancestors? it only takes a humble heart to be elevated in life. He knew someone is greater than anyone, and he acknowledge him which is called ancient of days n king of kings.let anyone continue saying whatever.

What we have is what we are gonna have till eternity...believe me...You are a nigerian..maybe a yoruba and that's what matters...your religion is just part of it and not originally yours....go and check the history of Africans in connection withXtianity and Islam ...check African Slavery and the what Xtianity did and samelike Islam....its more like a civilazation...an extension of colonialisation.......the King of England won't kneel in her own church in the Uk but the king of ile ife...the heritage of Yoruba Race, a representer of the Black Race doing so....

The Oba is a wise king. People can say what they like.

You can never see Emir from the north kneeling in church cus emirs are commanders of the faithful (in Islam).. Oba is a tittle deeply rooted in Isese as Igbakeji Orisa, it's wrong to go to church or mosque when Allah or jesus didn't ordain you but the Gods of the ancestors did.. why didn't Adeyeye Ogunwusi go to that church to be ordained a deacon? Or go to catholic church to be a bishop.
In that church they preach against the very traditions that made him Ooni, it shows he has no respect for traditions and cannot do his duty as Ooni

Stupidity is when you compare the Oba to the Queen of England without knowing the status of the Queen. The Queen is the spiritual and temporal head of the church of England, so all the Bishops and Priests of the church of England kneel and bow before her. Now to the Oba, is the Oba the head of the church where he knelt? Aside this logical argument, the Oba knelt before the living God who is the giver and taker of life, if you got problem with that, God hug transformer

You are just a frustrated miserable inbred. You and your 35 likes. If only God were man, you would hang from your balls right now but in all this, JESUS still loves you. May your frustration not lead your soul to eternal damnation. I guess you prefer him to kneel b4 a couple of stones and food sacrifice before you acknowledge him but the wise King knows what is good for him so he pays Obeisance to his creator. He may kneel in his room, in his compound or in a church. Worst you can do is tie a rope round your neck and hang it of get a coffin and lock you frustrated ass in it and DIE.
