Who know Olu of Warri?
He's not even the most recognised in Delta State, talk more of Nigeria.
He's respected only by Itseke people in the riverine areas of Warri. Can the Olu talk when Oba of Benin de talk? Can he cough when Orodje of Okpe is talking?


Una too de find relevance jor.

kcnwaigbo:
The alaafin of oyo should not be in that list.Furthermore the obi of Onitsha should be included!!

The only traditional ruler in that list whose influence extends beyond his region is the sultan of sokoto who also doubles as the leader of Nigerian Muslims. Other could be classified based on their sphere of influence in their geopolitical zones

Se-obi of Onitsha
Sw-ooni of Ife
Ss-oba of Benin
Nc-atta of igala
Nw-sultan of sokoto
Ne-?

AKYEMITE:
Ooni is second in Nigeria, he is the co-chairman with sultern of sokoto the president of traditional rulers in Nigeria. get your fact straight. not even the vice chairman, but co-chairman, they are on the same level

Oba of Benin is the highest. All other traditional rulers in 9ja knows that.
Agha se oghe edo, edo ore odion. Edo gha vbe se oghe ovban edo ore odion.
This translates to: when you pay a visit to bini or the binis pay you a visit. The binis would be seen as senior and as a result the binis are always requested to lead the prayers. If you doubt just ask any of your elderly ones at home,
the oba of Benin will never his leave his kingdom to gallivant like ooni and emir

Some people just choose to be stupid in life even when things are obvious.
The ooni was in benin during oba of Benin coronation and the oba say it to his face that it was our son bannished from edo that went to ife. The ooni was dumb founded. Even the emir of kano and sultan of sokoto sent a representative to represent them at that coronation.
Our oba will never leave his kingdom to visit ooni or any emir or sultan.

The number one King in Nigeria is the oba of Benin. Any other is on his own. In the Bible, the children of Israel had kings like the sultan and ooni but the kingdom of Judah had kings like the oba of Benin . The obaship is inherited while the others are by selection.

Who made him number one king in Nigeria and which chapter of Nigeria constitution recognizances the so called powerful kings and what's their achievements in their poor localities
