The fifth before anyone of them.

I dont count those Yoruba kings who were selected by a browth-teeth, corrupt politician of doubtful origin, and parentage.

Remove all the Yorba kings who were chosen by that brown-teeth, corrupt politician of doubtful parentage from the list.

Then we can talk

Remove Oba of Lagos, put Soun of Ogbomosho
Remove Olubadan, that one is more like a Baale, Put Ewi Of Ado or Deji of Akure

Before you even think of the Oba of Lagos, you should consider Awujale and Alake.

That Olubadan mention of midst disrespectful even to the Olubadan.

You are upholding the culture of dead people who have lived their life with their rules. They lived their life with their rules and you still want to live their life with their rules even though these rules are no longer relevant. Is that what you call black and white?

You have nothing. You can keep repeating that as though it is some deep thought. We can be slaves to our ancestors too.

Again, why are you guys so obsessed with ranking traditional rulers in the 21st century? There's like a new post every week.

Anyway, I don't know how one-town rulers like the Olubadan and the Obi of Agbor made it, and the Shehu of Borno isn't there. undecided

Ooni of ife is number 1 follow by Sultan sokoto then Oba of Benin

Oba of Benin cannot be replaced, no matter the politics involved. It’s strictly hereditary, that position belongs only to the first son of the Oba.
By law, any traditional ruler can be removed as they are under the government.
Re: 10 Most Powerful Kings In Nigeria by Donjiggy83: 10:00am On May 04, 2023
1. The Sultan of Sokoto
2. The Emir of Kano
3. The Alaafin of Oyo
4. The Ooni of Ife
5. Oba of Benin
6. Olubadan of Ibadan
7. Oba of Lagos
8. The Dein of Agbor
9. Obi of Onitsha
10. Olu of Warri
11Attah of igala

You need to cure your Benin derangement syndrome, just stop talking about Benin. Us Edo are too busy arguing with Europeans to get back more than 30 billion dollars worth of our cultural artefacts. We really don't have time for yoruba attempts at dick measuring and fake glorification of yoruba through attachment to us.
Please attach yourself to Egypt or Israel instead.
Start making threads about how some imaginary superman king of Yoruba was born in Ife and then took his spaceship to Egypt where he became the first king and then came back to Ife and since then every pharo's head has been buried in Ife.
No need to attach yourselves to us Edo. Thank you.
