The Alaafin stool is the prime royal stool in the whole of West Africa

It was the largest empire that stretched years from one century to the other before the advent of colonialism

Its high level of sophistication in political system and organisation devoid of any religious colouration is second to none till date

All hall the Alaafin!!

The man was/is a puppet. He doesn't have the intellect nor backbone to ruin anything. He just reads what is put in front of him.

Alaafin is the greatest king in entire Nigeria by ranking. You can argue with your keyboard if you don't agree.

The position of Ọọni of ifẹ was never meant to be a king...

From history, Ọọni was just an ABỌRẸ to the Alaafin of Ọyọ. What we can call coup turn Ọọni from ABỌRẸ to a king.

Ọyọ is the centre and heart of the entire yoruba race. The normal Yoruba language is written in Ọyọ language.
