obidaddy: See typical Western brainwashed Mumu. I detest when culturally deficient Africans call their culture diabolical et Al, when they do the direct equivalent in a foreigners religion. You are anointed with oil, kneel in front of the leader and swear that you will never leave the confraternity, pay monthly dues and are mandated to bring more converts etc. Is it Christianity that isn't fetish? Eat the body of Christ, drink his blood", "washed by the blood of Jesus", burning of incense, reciting in Latin etc. For your information, he acknowledged the God of his own beliefs, not Jesus Christ as you said.

babyfaceafrica: Stop twisting facts and talking trash! Ooni is the head (No 1) amongst all the traditional rulers in Yoruba land In historic times, the Ooni used to either install, appoint or approve the kings of other domains in Yoruba land. It was the British that came and neutralized the influence of the kings to the benefit of their 'divide and rule' tactics. |

He used social media as a tool in his struggle to become an Ooni, so he should also expect criticism from them. And no one asked for an apology from him too. [/quote] Please explain to us how he used social media to become Ooni. I can't remember campaigning or can't remember seeing his picture on any social media soliciting for votes to become Ooni. Until his name was announced by the Ile-Ife king makers you and I don't even know him. So please educate the more on how he used social media, your comment is laughable. |

All these palpitations are unnecessary. The ooni is a traditionalist who goes to church and goes to mosque. He does it to fraternize wt his pple in these religions. Other oonis have done it in d past. Traditional Yoruba religion recognizes olodumare. Every other differences in belief is abt d way u get to him. This is d mentality of all these kings, even alaafin. It doesn't mean they're converts, they're still traditionalists. |

mikeapollo: Ooni is not no.1 king in yorubaland. He's not d 1st son of oduduwa. Trust me they adhere to DT heirarchy strongly among those 1st generation kings when it comes to coronation of other kings.eg. during d coronation of d orangun of ila, d alaafin has to enter d palace first before d ooni.etc. In yoruba mythology, oduduwa sent all his sons out except d last son. The importance of d ooni is DT he is d custodian of their fatherland. He rules as arole oduduwa, along wt all its gods (emphasis on gods cos this is why d extremist traditional worshippers here are poknosing their eye on him, other faiths really don't care). There is no no.1 king in yorubaland. The obas themselves all have rspct for each other & the domains they rule as they have covenants wt d land itself (don't ask me how). Their individual pples also have respect for them. We have democratic systems of government now, so all DT superiority stuff are generally seen as irrelevant & unnecessary.The fight BTW d alaafin & ooni in d last dispensation was a fight BTW oba lamidi and oba sijuade. It has no bearing on anything important. |

Abeg where is even our Dear Nelson Mandela? we are all just like flowers which bloss in the morning and wither in the evening. The twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives for ever and ever. They lay their crowns before the throne and say: “You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they all have their being. their being.” created their being.” |

RedCapChief: You just gave the no. 1 rule of losing the best of your staff/subordinate after ingratitude. A boss that will not apologize when wrong is most likely suffering from low self-esteem and insecurity (the cocktail manifesting as pride). Real bosses count it an opportunity to be able to say,"I'm sorry about that." By the way, having nothing to agologize for like the Ooni's case is different from rationalizing instead of apologizing. You actually lose the respect of your subordinates if you choose the former(rationalizing). |

There goes the little that is left of ancient ife culture, a "brainwashedly" schooled monarch is in charge. He shouldn't have gone for the custodian position of an oba if he was going to mess it up with indoctrinated slave master religion. It is sacrilegious. He should be deposed. |

I don't know the problem some people have with this new oni. Yoruba calls them 'alase ekeji orisa' meaning 'the second in command to god' not to the Almighty God! so now that he has become king he should now assume he is at par with his creator? NO! The more we reference God the more he honour and bless us! God bless the king. 1 Like |

richardoz:The Ooni is an orisa, and not an "alase ikeji orisa". Hence, oonirisa! There are 401 chief gods in Yorubaland, according to the mythology, and the only living one among them is the "ooni". Sé ó yé? Kneeling before a preacher, for an Ooni, is a sacrilege. These guys are hypocrites sef, they go through all those traditional rituals and still come out to do "sàgbè lójú yòyò" to you people and you gulp everything line, hook and sinker.
