chymevicks: A descendant of a European made warrant chief that now claim Eze? Same warrant chiefs that were willing tools at the hands of Europeans in destroying our traditional institutions and those that stood against the European ways, but are now claiming to be the custodians of our traditional institutions, what a bunch of jokers! Was there ever a monarch in Isuochi before the coming of the whites? I don't think so. The people were and remain republican. |

osifred: Oba of Ogbaland is actually the latest chief in the whole of Nigeria, seeing that his title "Oba" is an aberration and as fake as they come. The Eze of Ogbaland, now that's an older title,but like other Ezes around is also a recent development, as the ancient Ogba clan was republican like most of other Igbo speaking clans. |

Jenkizo: Putting the Oba of Lagos before the Oba of Benin is not only unreasonable in the current state of things but also historically inaccurate as al and sundry know that the Kingdom of Lagos, or Eko as it was name by the Benins paid and still pay tribute to the Throne of the Ancient Benin Kingdom as they were conquered during the legendary military exploits of Oba Ewuare the Great. i will not attempt to comment on the supremacy of the Alaafin of Oyo over the Ooni of Ife or Vice versa or even the that of the Oba of Benin over the Yoruba Rulers as this is sure to create unwarranted Wahala 1 Like |
