If this story is true, then I have a question.

According to the picture above, the Oba of Benin was newly installed meaning his predecessor had just died, and the Ooni of Ife died the next year.

In 2015 also, a new Ooni of Ife was installed and the Oba of Benin died about same time.

Also, this Ooni of Ife has married a Benin woman....hmmmm


Something tells me that the Oba of Benin is the ab_OBA_ku of the Ooni of Ife.

Especially when you recall that the reward for an abobaku is that he must also enjoy life like the King.

The visit was in 1979, Oba Akenzua joined his ancestors in 1978 so how could Akenzua be the Abobaku? Actually it could be argued the Oni was Akenzua's abobaku having died a year after Oba Akenzua.
The Oba of Benin joined his ancestors early in 2015 few months later the Oni died, I wonder why?


If I were you I'd be praying for the Edaiken to live a prosperous and long life because the fate of the Oni rests with him. I dey joke o

Baba was pleased
enough with Omo'n'ba to swap
his black leather seat with him.
For those of us who finds it difficult to understand the superiority of the Oba of Benin over the Ooni of Ife, please meditate on the above. That an older Ooni vacated his exalted seat for a visiting Oba speaks volume. In africa tradition it is the young that stands up for his elder to sit. For the Oba to accept that abnormality means the Benin monarch is superior to the Ooni.

Two kings don't share the same throne.

The ooni of Ife, Adesoji Aderemi realizes that and did the right thing pronto.

If this your statement about two kings not sharing the same throne makes sense to you, how come none of the yoruba monarchs the new Ooni visited vacates their seats for him?

You made sense. You only leave your seat for a superior.

That was before he ascended the throne of the benin monarchy. If he was already seated as the oba of benin he can't go and visit the ooni! Instead its the ooni that will come and visit him in benin. Also didn't u guys notice the superiority of the benin monarchy over the kingship of ife, as the ooni has to vacate his own sit in his own palace for a visiting prince about the be crowned king of benin? If the prince even asked 4 the ooni's wife for the night he will still definitely grant him the favour hehehehe that's the defination of true superiority of the benin monarchy over the yorubas. #fact

Lol...anyway sha
They announced it only that some people were too dense to understand. Crown prince Eheneden Erediauwa announced before the presidential elections of 2015 that "the leopard is distresed in the Savanna."

Those who know "wetin dey" , understood and took necessary precautions. The "Ofekes" only got to know last week.

Even when prince Eheneden took the historical and ritualistic walk from Benin to Uselu to assume the Edaiken n' Uselu title, their mumu eyes never opened.

I am sure that such people will still be wondering what happened when Eheneden Erediauwa finally assumes his titular Oba name; just like Solomon Akenzua became Oba Erediauwa in 1979 .

just cos the OP with no verifiable source stated that the ooni vacated a leather seat for the oba of Benin, you lots now think the oba is superior.

how are you sure that the seat is actually precious to the ooni?

the leather seat is not the ooni of ife throne.. its just a sign of respect for a visiting king to your palace.. nothing more.. and he can never sit on the throne of ooni of ife.. i hope this is clear now
this is ooni of ife on his throne which only him sits

Re: Oba of benin Erediauwa Visit The Ooni Of Ife On His Ascension To The Throne by aventura: 1:12pm On May 03, 2016
Thesame way every new emir must visit the sultan. If the new oba of benin visits the ooni then it puts to rest the age long arguments between both sides on who is superior.
