Very fetish people. To say all their pastors and reverends will pretend not to have seen this. Instead of them to hold all-night vigil around the place, they will silently go into hiding and come out to boast only on Sunday morning.
If you are not as anointed as Benson idahosa, you better run go inside.

He was the only one that openly confronted the oba of Benin and lived.

The direct perpetuators may have faced untold tragedy when they went back to Britain.

We will never know.

This is laughable actually. Ever since Sanusi's issue begins,these Benin people have been making spirited efforts to make their Oba appears larger than the whole universe itself !

The noise is just too much ! Oba is this,Oba is that,wetin na ? You guys are only being foolish if you ever imagine that a non Bini person will fear or respect your Oba just like you do.

When it comes to real juju,trust me, you're all learners over there,including your Oba. What is the big deal if movements are restricted around the palace of an Oba for certain sacred meetings ,sacrifice or processions ? Is that not why he is called an Oba ?

In your futile attempts at promoting your Oba as untouchable, most powerful and etc since Sanusi saga begins,you have only succeeded in bringing disrespect his way by other non Bini people. You exposed him to all manners of insults !

The message you are sending 'codedly' is that you want the rest of us to believe that your Oba is above the law of Nigeria and that he cannot be dethroned but that is a big lie. He will be dethroned and sent on exile if he oversteps his boundaries.

Let it be known as well that if anybody is killed in the name of any tradition and it becomes known to the law,those who are involved will spend the rest of their lives in jail that is if they are not killed.

Actions against the oba has consequence...the government can try but can he face the consequences is another thing.

That means you not a really a fan of history. The man who presided over the banishment of the Oba, Consul General Ralph Moor of Britain never lived a happy life afterwards. He died b4 the exiled Oba on 14th November 1909 of suicide induced by depression. He wasn't alone but majority of the principle actors in the Benin punitive expedition. Just Google Ralph Moor.

Government means " Ijo awon Oba" in Yoruba language. Do you have any idea what that means ? It means " congregation of kings" in the true sense of it.

You need to understand that government is powerful than any Oba because it is a " congregation of Kings"- Ijo awon Oba i.e Ijoba in Yoruba language.

If Oba of Benin oversteps his boundary, government will deal/punish him accordingly without any consequence..

I just wonder who's daughters, sons, mothers and fathers will be used in this sacrifice/ritual called tradition in this 21st century. May God have mercy on them because they know not what they do. Above all, grant them a repentant heart.

is the individual in government powerful than the oba. Go back to history and see what happened to the person who once tried it. I believe you have not stayed in Benin to know how the bini's respect or should I say fear traditional things than the government. My point is the government can try but can the individual in government stand the consequences of his actions

Guy,you wanna shove it down my throat that your Oba is bigger than the government of your state or that of Nigeria or what exactly ? Binis respect their Oba and so ? Don't I respect my own Oba too or you want to lecture me about custom and tradition, a Yoruba man like me ?

Are you a toddler ? All the deities you pay homages to and worship,in your so called palace, have their roots in my land,Yoruba land. What do you guys even know about the 201deities that are deeply rooted in Yoruba land and being worshiped by the traditionalists every blessed day in Ile Ife ? Bini people,traditional things blah blah blah ! When it comes to real juju,'Oogun abenun gongo',everybody in your land,including your Oba is a learner when we, the Yorubas are talking.

Your Oba is not bigger than any government at any level and he can be dethroned if the push comes to shove. That is my point to you.

I know as a Yoruba man what Ifa divination and its literary corpus,Odu Ifa says about Oba," Alase igba keji Orisa and I have respect for all of them. So you see,my dear Bini man,you are not in any position to lecture me about any "traditional thing". This topic is stale already,you may not get any response from me on it again. See you on another thread !
