Igodomigodo The sound of a passing time Drawn in the euphoria of a beta land A washed with wisdom of men long gone To the waters u mortals must drink As dimly the light shine over her Igodomigodo Hear, the gong clung Calling from a distance land To the feast flesh can't taste The king called Igodomigodo Suddenly silence visits the palace For once the parrot prayed calm The orator called out in sorrow Accompanied by d sonority of d flute My father my Father The iroko of our motherland I called thee The king cud hear d resounding echo He remembered his people Made a dash towards d flute The way he had done in time gone He came around called to them Sat by the queen spoke to her But none cud hear him Alone against his norm He wept as he watched them gather Over his copy so stale His people so sad For beyond d Rubicon he's crossed Still his body lay Regalled in Royalty Frailed in mortal fragility He waved so long Rest on Our footprints in the liveS of all we touched while on earth we tread is d only lagacy we live behind My Quiet Quill 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Jesusloveyou: If you witnessed what happened in 1979, have you seen same happened/happening now? To answer your question, no i was not born then. I'm not sure my dad knew of my mom existence then. 2 Likes |

The body of the late Oba belong to Ife Kingdom. He is a son of Oduduwa. If you doubt me go to Oni palace and see the burial ground of past Obas of Benin |

Ever since I was a kid I have always respected the Benin Kingdom because of the way the people hold the oba in high esteem. The respect for the oba is just beyond my understanding. As a young boy growing in the city of Benin I always thought of the oba as an extra ordinary being. And even as I grew up this view didn't change. The Binis don't question what the oba says. That's just not what you see nowadays where people talk back at their traditional rulers. I can assure u that the average Benin man respects the oba more than the president any time any day. I'm proud to be an Edo man. Goodbye Omo ñ oba. You have been a blessing to your people. You have preserved the Benin culture the way we wish you would. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Beeman1: He should have left politics alone and just concentrate on eulogising the Oba. There was no need to politicise the oba's death by him recanting his achievements and in the process roping in the Oba. The Oba was apolitical, that's why he was respected, Oshiomhole should not drag the Oba to ridicule. 2 Likes |

Oba of benin is second to none. His throne is far above his contemporaries. He is never nominated by any man, like the owanbe obas. Omo n oba lives on |

MrWhaley: No shakes oga..... Oba died around november last year and he has since been buried... According to the tradition, his death is to be announced officially after some months, that's why they are just announcing it.... The coronation process of the crown prince edaiken n uselu has since begun... If you have any doubt check out his palace opposite uselu park.. Live your life bro |
