U will be sentence to death immediately because that the rule in Yoruba land

AnthonyAk:
Yoruba people and servitude. Its in their blood

hahaha you talk about the most important group of people in Africa with this sharp tongue of yours and you expect curses not to befall you. I know where you come from though... Children of hates and agony... You call your master servitude?

When you kneel b4 God, u will kneel b4 no mortal.

This "tradition" should be restricted to his palace.

I don't see why anybody should kneel or prostrate to this man outside of his palace. When he flies abroad does anybody kneel or bow to him?

If I didn't know any better I would think they were his slaves. I figure Africans have been enslaving each other long before the white man came.

That's what they call culture for God's sake. Better don't throw away your culture because of some nonsense civilization. Even the whites still practice their culture. You meet the queen of England, you bow. BTW, I don't think it was written there that they were forced to prostrate to him.

Is there a reason behind having to make a declaration before commenting on any Muslim topic on this platform?

It was an abnormality the first time I saw it but now it's an atrocity. An evil that shouldn't have been allowed to see the light of the day.
A thread that isn't meant for everyone belongs in a specific section not on the front page. The moment it get to the front page it's the general public's thread.
Fūck the declaration and the fūcktard that came up with it.

All these people that bowed are not from West though.

So it's inevitable, unless you want out.

Its a hotel and it is business, they need his continuous patronage hence the show they put up before the cameras. If you know, you know!

Why not just leave the Yorubas to their culture and traditions.


Your opinion doesn't count.

Boyooosa:

Help me ask am, how many people dey respect oba of benin on daily basis.
Some Edo people sef dey talk say oba of benin is not a first class king in Edo kingdom, I don't know how true that is. If it is true, he now wants to compare that one with a king that covers one of the largest tribes in the nation, well, if not the largest sha...,

some Edos, bros u can lie for African. this has got nothing to do with majority, oba of Benin has been the sole head of Edo traditional council from inception .your Oni is equivalent to our palace chiefs in Benin.
