I Did Not Shun Jonathan - Oba of Benin

The Oba of Benin, Omo N’Oba N’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo, has refuted publications in some national newspapers that he shunned President Goodluck Jonathan and members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on their recent visit to his palace.

The Benin traditional council, in a statement signed by its secretary and issued on the authority of the traditional ruler, in Benin City, on Monday, described some of the publications as mischievous.

According to the statement, “the palace would like to make it clear that the Omo N’Oba did not shun President Jonathan and the PDP members that came with him.

“In fact, it is the respect and love Omo N’Oba has for the president that made him to still manage to see the president in a private chamber in the palace, despite a complicated situation that day.”

Besides, the statement reminded the public that “three weeks ago, Omo N’Oba waited for over two hours in his open office, where he received Vice-President Namadi Sambo and the PDP chieftains that were in Benin for political rally.

The traditional ruler used the medium to advice politicians to avoid violence in the forthcoming gubernatorial election in the state.

We don tire for this story abeg.

After reading this, the negative comments in that "Oba Of Bini Refused GEJ In His Palace" thread look like they all came from goats (you know yourselves) and not human beings.

Like I said and like other people have said, there was never any controversy.

He has been warned of the dangers ahead and the anger of the president hence this apologetic publication. I trust presido,he will still deal with the oba one way or the other. Apparently those close to him must have warned him,anyways let's see how the drama unfolds. IMO the oba phuckt up big time.

And what are you gonna do about that statement?

Just shut up and stop whining over nothing.

Yawns . . .
Wetin go con happen now?! Some people don't just get it; apart from the paid agents, no one really cares whether GEJ was snubbed or not. Abegi!

Oba of Benin, respect anyday anytime!

@jason
Grow up that's the only advise I hv for kids

@ifihearam
Point is, you are stressing yourself over nothing! Only paid agents do that!

Ohhhhh. Whosoever does not see reasons from your point of view is whining abi?

Mtchewww

Only a fool could have written the above. The statement from the Oba Palace is a clarification and in no way an apology.Many people have been interpreting what transpired at the Palace.
Can you tell us what they warned the Oba about?

Know that only death takes the throne from an Oba of Benin.

Mtchewww

Why don't u just take your colleagues advice and shut your trap? Its not like you've got anything meaningful to bleat say.

Me I sha don't undstand al dis brouhaha. Na by force? D report said, d Oba met with GEJ in his inner chambers not the open palace where d oda delegates esp d PDP aspirant was.
GEJ thinks he can bulldoze his way into a palace, force d King to put his staff on d PDP aspirant so they'l go to town and say the oba endorsed the PDP aspirant? Taaaaa... Oba na mumu? He has been king way b4 GEJ dreamt of becomin dep gov...Abeg, al dis talk of dealing with d oba na thrash...Na Benin o. No be owu o...

Interesting!!

The Oba can't be messed with...

And traditional rulers are the custodians of our culture - they deserve more respect..

Ehen? traditional rulers deserve more respect than the president of a country??na wa for some people sha.
By all standards traditional rulers are equal to local government chairmen cos they share equal responsibilities.

The Oba is a noble and upright man and considering the accomplishments of Oshiomhole in Edo state, he wld have to hate his kingdom to support some other candidate for whatsoever reason.
That said, political power holds sway in Nigeria today which explains why the Oba was at one time suspended from the Edo state traditional council (If I recall correctly) by a certain riffraff military Governor of the state after some perceived pressure from the "Igbins". The suspension caused an outrage at the time but the lesson here is that Politicians still very much call the shots on these shores.

Retardeen punked once again

I know you must be sleeping while you type this, two things is clear may be your brain was completely shut down while writing this and as a result you did not think before acting, or the same madness passed on to you by your fore fathers started in the early hours of the day, which ever, when you eake up please read your post over and over again and see how stupid you are

I am not surprised.

Oba of Benin is one of the greatest traditional stools that have operated before the birth of Nigeria. Give the stool some credence it deserve. President or PDP or ACN or any other group cant do much about their decisions.

The beloved oba don't even need to explain anything. Hope the retardeen has learnt his lessons.

Ukwu Okpolokpolor Omo n Oba Erediauwa may your days be long.

dey there dey wait, u go grow bie bie........oba don go him inner chamber wit his newest wife!

All dis talk tire me. Na by force to see someone in your house/palace? If the President did not inform the Oba before coming, let him deal with it a beg. If the President just enter my house without informing me and I wasn't in the mood to see him, na soldiers he go take drag me out of my bedroom else he go wait tire.

Hahaha..
I jes like this drama..

Deal with!! How?... The Oba is not to be seen at certain times, for him 2 manage 2 see the president in his private chambers shows d respect he has for Jonathan and also he was trying not to send a wrong message 2 politicians... If U recall it was because of the insistent of some europeans to see his grandfather that caused the war that almost destroyed Benin kingdom..

At last, you have been able to convince me that you are indeed a big baby! or alternatively, an educated illiterate!!
