Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by Nobody: 3:40pm On Mar 14, 2015 |
Late Prince Generalissimo Ogunbona Agboketoyinbo who was the Balogun of Ikija between 1830- 1861 has been honoured by the Alake and Paramount ruler of Egbaland, HRM (Dr) Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo at his family house in Ikija, Abeokuta today as the hero of the year for the 2015 edition of the Lisabi festival. Incontestably, a warrior to reckon with in the early existence of the Egba kingdom, the ‘Generalissimo’ was recognized for his “bravery and sagacity in the warfront.” He was also noted for his immense contributions to the economic development and growth of the Egba nation. Interestingly, the late warlord had twenty six wives, all blessed with children. His elegant but slightly flamboyant lifestyle warranted the name “AGBOKETOYINBO”, meaning one who lives elegantly like the whites. Ogunbona, in company of Sodeke, Lunloye and Atambala, all frontline Egba leaders, was instrumental in helping Egba move from their initial homestead to Abeokuta. His legacy of selfless service to humanity, patriotism and tolerance in the face of provocation has helped his legendary status in the Egba kingdom. Culled from insideegba.com |

He was a prince, a warlord and warrior to reckon with, had a hive of 26 women to choose from when it came to warming his loins day and night without bickering, jealousy, or argument between them - and still was able to maintain a flamboyant lifestyle. . . Oh well, I don't know about y'all, but this Prince Generalissimo Ogunbona Agboketoyinbo is/was definitely a hero and a model for true Africannism. Every mother's son what calls himself an African should look up to him - the happiest and most influential men of African Origin in the world are/were either polygamous or have/had side-chicks, fact! Even Barack Obama has a side-chick, true story. |

MizMyColi:Advise? You make mockery of our African heritage MizMyColi. Africannism isn't an advice, it is an essence. . . a way of life, regardless of the time and age. |

crackhaus: I respect you and you know it. But lemee trrry and debate with you. Please excuse me if I sound attitude-ish. Speaking of African heritage, would you agree with me we're not true to this heritage of ours? We might as well go back to wearing Perchance we only remember our "heritage" when we need it to serve a purpose (selfless or selfish) or to hype/inflate our egos? 3 Likes 1 Share |

MizMyColi:Lol.. have you seen what the chics are wearing these days in the name of fashion? If that's not wearing advanced palmfronds (your words), I don't know what it is As for serving Sango, I'm sure not everyone is a Christian - they may not be serving Sango, but they definitely serving something that's not the Christian God. . . their money, jobs, etc. I sensed no attitude BTW 2 Likes |

crackhaus: 2 posts Good to see you loosen up. Wait. You actually used that smiley! Waow. Sunday miracle. |
Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by crackhaus: 9:26am On Mar 15, 2015 |
MizMyColi:The only way to seem loosed up on here is making use of a smiley? |
Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by MizMyColi(f): 9:31am On Mar 15, 2015 |
crackhaus: Yes..... That's why it is called an emoji.... (Emotions reflector) In addition to the tone of your post. How you are able to do e-wars here without coming off as losing your cool? Now I envy that. I'll try getting you vividly pissed one of these days. Owh well, that's a pipe dream |

Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by crackhaus: 9:47am On Mar 15, 2015 |
MizMyColi:Exactly, how do you determine a serious post or a non-serious one based on Smileys? I could be serious and use them or not be serious and not use them. |
Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by MizMyColi(f): 9:58am On Mar 15, 2015 |
crackhaus: I'm an empath. The implication is that I know and feel things in my gut. I am not always right but I mostly am. Because writing is the best form of expressing myself. It is easier to phool me in person, than in written words. Emoji or not. Concerning the first post you made on this thread.....something was off. Without the emojis I knew that wasn't you..... But I kinda indulged because I wanted to be sure. In fact, I have observed that most of us who use emojis are actually expressing the opposite in reality. It's all make-believe. |
Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by crackhaus: 10:11am On Mar 15, 2015 |
MizMyColi:Lol @bold text. What's the difference between being an empath and being emphatic? It's an honest question, I could Google it for clarity but I don't want to. |
Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by MizMyColi(f): 10:42am On Mar 15, 2015 |
crackhaus: Emphatic is used in the context of emphasizing something or stressing a set of words. An empath is said to be empathetic when they display above average psychic abilities.....being presently present in the pains and joys of other people like it were a personal experience. |
Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by Nobody: 1:30pm On Mar 15, 2015 |
crackhaus: I have a personal account on that but I won't put it out here. Polygamy is not good... It just is not, not even the holy bible supports it....as for Obama having a side chick, lol...i resign for that one... |
Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by crackhaus: 3:10pm On Mar 15, 2015 |
MizMyColi:Oh, sorry I meant to type empathic...my bad. Hmmm, psychic huh? Interesting. 1 Like |

scribespad:When you say polygamy is not good, you must realize you fail to take into account the good and/successful ones. . . Yes, there are those. Obama has a side-chick, trust me. |
Re: Egba's Hero Of The Year Had 26 Wives by Nobody: 6:38pm On Mar 15, 2015 |
crackhaus: Are you still on the Obama issue?? Lol...... as for polygamy, u may be correct though but I wudn't advise anyone i know to go that line... |
