AkinPhysicist: The Egba also say, " Egba ko l'olu, gbogbo nwon ni nse bi Oba". Doesn't mean they don't have the Alake and all that. The saying simply means that they don't give their leaders and rulers absolute power. 3 Likes |

RedboneSmith: nse bi oba - means behave as kings NOT are kings (nse oba). However, Igbos say they have no kings. Its different. 1 Like |

AkinPhysicist: Igbos had no kings before the white man. There were Nzes, Ozors. These people formed something more like a senate. Not one man had absolute power. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Congrat to him...I knew this guy back in my secondary school. He was once the head boy and I commend his great leadership skills so am not surprised he's their king |

BornStunner1:You can say that again. All the needless supremacy fights and arguments can only be seen on the social media, e.g NL. Everybody knows where they belong. On the 23rd of December (a few days ago) as I was driving out of the Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital, I noticed something like siren, blowing behind me. As every vehicle was giving way, I had to follow suit. Guess what I saw, 2 SUVs with the Oba of Benin number plate affixed on each of the vehicles and somebody holding a staff of office inside each vehicle, in the convoy of 5 vehicles obviously coming from Benin to see the Ooni as they were heading towards his palace. I wounded down and shouted...Oba gha to kpehereeee, they all said iseeeee and zoomed past me. Tomorrow, some people here would be fighting unnecessarily over Ooni and Oba of Benin's supremacy as if their lives depend on it. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

AkinPhysicist: Yes sir, it is foreign but not so recent. We did a documentation on one community in Owerri once, that was my 3rd year as a student of Architecture. The chief priest gave us first hand information on how a white man crowned their first king, that was the early 20th century. In some places kings are even elected. |

masseratti: Because the benins unlike the yorubas never saw the need to force their language down the throat of thier subjects!! The benin Empire allowed her subjects keep a measure of thier identity as long as tributes where paid to the center of the Empire which is benin 3 Likes 1 Share |
