It is Yoruba tradition

The Ooni's father is still alive, he has to prostrate to his son when he comes to the Palace

His mother is deceased (May she RIP). If she was alive, she will kneel down until her son tells her to rise.

For all intents and purposes, he is no longer their son but their spiritual head ordained by the gods of our land

Anywhere I see him, I will prostrate flat and not stand up until I'm told do so

Kabiyesi Ki Ade pelori, ki bata pelese

That's the difference between him and Bubu. Unlike what transpired at Ogun

This just increased my love for Yorubas and their culture the more. I'm Igbo but not IPOB.

What transpired in Ogun?

Some Baale's were arranged to take pictures to accommodate them in a picture with the President?

No one has been able to name the so called Obas that were involved in the picture. Thats because they are not OBas

Obasanjo is Ogboni and he knows the importance of Yoruba culture

He is old enough to be the Ooni's grandfather but right now, the Ooni is his spiritual head
