If a man is dead and we deny he hasn't died, are we not deluding ourselves? Basically lying to ourselves. Maybe there are aspects of this tradition that needs modification. Culture itself should change to accomodate changes as time progresses. It needs not be static and delusory. Oni as far as the world is concerned is already dead. He died in an hospital in London! There was no way some of his ancestor would have sought medical help abroad talkless of dying there. This is part of how civilisation has changed the way our kings live. |

Ilaje44:Your faith is nested in your faith. Thats like habouring the totality of everything. Ojo atisun l'ebo. 'The day one dies, reckoning' If so, who do we reckon to on the day we die according to Yoruba tradition? |

ephi123:I don't think his birth was disputed, only announced through a traditional means. What I disagree with Oni's case is that his death is being denied. Do you believe he is still alive? |

I love this post I have to saved it in my drive I love this race called The Yoruba a lot though I'm not from their I just love them for their pride in their culture, their ability to unite as one till date, their ability to always stand by what they believe in, their educational vibrancy it's awesome and above all they are the most accommodating of all race or tribe in Nigeria take it or leave it fact remains fact I don't care how anyone feels about that, I so respect them. I just love people who trace their origin, show facts to proof it, wrote literature about their origin as a matter of fact I love this people that is it nothing can change that. Anyway RIP the Ooni. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

tete7000: To be honest, I don't know whether he is alive or not. My post was referring to those saying tradition is irrelevant in announcing the death formally (if indeed he is dead). |

iamrealdeji: You fool! everyone has a soul/spirit. After the Gods, come the Rulers on Earth (the King) -1st among equals whose duty iw to guide the ppl and serve them in the material realm. (in an ideal situation). The Soul turns into spirit. the difference between these Obas spirits and the Gods (nature/spiritual forces) is evident. you wont see temples constructed to these Kings as youd see to the Orisha (Gods). derz no such tin as judgement day. Only good Karma and bad Karma. 2 Likes |

Re: Oore Of Mobaland: Only Person Who's Qualified To Break The News Of Ooni's Death by 9jatatafo(m): 1:37pm On Jul 31, 2015 |
lexy2014: The truth of the matter is that we have traditional heads who trade pleasure for culture and tradition. In those days there was enjoyment for kings as well and kings then upheld the culture and tradition above every other thing unlike today where Obas get involved in publicity like celebrity. Take a look at the Aalafin of Oyo for example. In a nutshell the obas who are custodians of our culture and tradition don't even believe in it anymore. That is why we see the subjects behaving contrary to the tradition ways of life. |

PAGAN9JA:Clap for yourself,I used to come across your moniker and used to think you just call yourself a pagan for fun,i never knew you're a true pagan. My question is that is it your gods that said you should be sacrificing virgins,killing innocent children and travelers to make your town peaceful,or sacrificing humans for money rituals? What type of gods would instruct his people to do such? And you said there is good and bad karma? That one is just lie,some people do somethings and get away with them in this world but won't escape them on the day of judgment. Judgment day is like you plucking mango,of course,when you bite and eat the mango,its dead,but you throw the seed on the ground and the seed continues its life and becomes a huge mango tree again. But it takes a very long time. Humans die and continues living in the afterlife again |
