I think the war is getting more interesting. To the benefits of people like us, who are mindful in acquisition of cultural knowledge. |

This so called ruler should always back his presumptions with facts. The prominent chief of Bini kingdom stated equivocally that during the last conference help in Benin that the list of attendees showed only one Oba which was the Oba of Benin and the rest titles were all bearng Onni's and Alafin. Secondly, he mentioned that it was a Bini prince who strayed to Ife that brought about kingship in that region and he has said he has facts to back up his claime. Anyways the whole world knows who is top on the ranking, you can even attest from the Queen of England, she too will educate you all cus they have and keep records. 9 Likes |

clefstone:You don't know history. The oba Oyo has high reputation. Oyo empire at its peak extend towards Benin Republic and Togo. Oyo empire had the best soldiers. Ile Ife never fought any war. They are weak. Ile-Ife was attacked by Afonja with ease. Ooni is just respected because that is the source of all Yoruba. To show that Aalafin is a powerful king, he is the only king that can pronounce someone Aare Onakankafo. 10 Likes 1 Share |

The Alake seems to be high on dried Ugwu leaf.. The Awujale of Ijebu is way ahead of Alake of Egbaland. It is only Ijebuland whose ancestry can't be traced back to Ife. Get your facts right,Alake of Egbaland. Awujale no be ya mate!! 2 Likes |

Saladin25: Ile-Ife was a spiritual center. Ife is not meant to fight any war. Ile-Ife was like a church. Oyo was the administrative center. Thats why its fights wars. Even the Agbekoya war. Ile-Ife did not openly cooperate with Ekiti-Ijesha alliance You need to get these basics. 4 Likes |
