Typical blacks driving Bently when your people are suffering. Black people are useless; very useless. Of all popular traditional rulers, only one does't drive a luxury...Obi of Onitsha. Ironically he is the most educated and richest of all of them.

How can Obi of Onitsha be the richest, have you heard of Obateru Akinruntan(Obat Oil), the Olugbo of Ugbo in ilaje town in Ondo state, he has the largest Petroleum tank farm in Africa.

Better learn and do research before making stupid claims.

First of all Obi of Onitsha is not even a First Class king.
Secondly, I don't think he is richer than Ooni of Ife and Oba of Benin. Ooni of Ife is one of the biggest real estate player in the country.

Many Monarch in the Oil producing communities like Obateru are way richer than the Obi of Onitsha.[/s]

This is the problem with you afonjas, your brain is so tiny like a peanut that you can't think widely or travel out of your region. Obi of Onistsha is not a small boy...go and read his profile. Anybody can own a oil company....nothing special.

Many of you just talk ignorantly, as for Obi of onitsha's wealth, I cant say much but I can assure you he is one of the most educated monarchs if not the most read...secondly he is also an oil merchant and one of board members of orient petroleum building a refinery in Aguleri in Anambra state, only that he doesn't show off like others....

Again who knows ObAt oil in the Southeast let alone south south and in the north....even in the south west, most of his filling stations are in Ondo state his home state...they are not wide spread..and his oil tank farm(storage) in Lagos is not even quarter that of Ifeanyi Uba which also had a jetty.

As for HornyofIfe .....like my handle, i know the palace very well cos am close to it...I can tell many things you don't know about kabiyesi, but for the respect I have for the family, I will let it die...but don't believe everything you read about him,he has many dark sides you don't want to hear especially, as regards scamming people....the guy is broke just in case you like to know..even his rolls royes was given to him....

In case you like to know also, many Ife sons and daughters only, regard and respect his stool and not him as a person...because they accuse him of defrauding people of their land and money and politicing the stool....

there is a project in Ife where monies(initial down Payment) were collected from people, with the hope of developing mid size houses along Ede road behind parakin ile ife, and those who paid will have their homes on completion and complete their payment subseqently, but till today, foundation for the houses have not even started, peoples monies have all gone and because of his stool, they cannot question him, they all go back the their rooms to nag in regret..

Rather, he use this stool to collect peoples land to build a resort..in his name.(though some say, there is a certain size of land always reserved for the crown)

His real estate firm is not one of the biggest in Lagos not to talk of the country and he is not the sole owner....Nairaland has done a lot in dishing out false hypes mostly by ignorant afonjas who cant even question the decisions of their local government officials, let alone the lies of your so called traditional rulers.....

if he truly was a real estate don like you said, why was his father living in a regular house in eleyele before he became king and he never had a house of his own until the mansion he just built recently in parakin?

Even all through the time he was contesting for his Ooniship, he stayed in conference center inside OAU.

am sure you know kabiyesi still has a case of defrauding the previous Ooni hanging on his neck...

Lol..who knows your useless obi of Onitsha. They're talking about real royalties, this ipob fool is mentioning obi.As if you flattees have first class kings

bakynes:

You are just ranting like a Mad dog, stop been sentimental about this because you are Igbo, it is a known fact that Obateru(Obat Oil) is the richest Monarch in Nigeria if not Africa, stop arguing with fact it's not because am Yoruba that's why am supporting him,it is just the fact of life.

Likewise I can't argue Pre independence Ojukwu's father was the richest man in Nigeria after the death of Alhaji Danttata. It is a known fact no point arguing that.

Bayajidda1:
Can't he just sit in his domain as the reverred king he is supposed to be?

Who is the chairman of uac board of directors ?

Oga stop talking what you don't know

TheKingIsHere:


He is king. He can do whatever he likes

Diiet:
Oba of Benin is too important to leave his palace or visit anyone
only Ooni travels everywhere.

Maybe na him goast we they see there
Edo folks on this forum better open their eyes and understand that we are no longer in the stone age when kings would just sit in their palaces and expect people to be paying them homage. This is 21st century.

Ihatepork:


Nobody gives a Bleep about that. All we know is that Obat is wealthier than him

mrvitalis:

Always add ceremonial cos they have no power abosulutly no power

A governor can remove him and nothing will happen

mrvitalis:

if obi is not a first class king then no king in Nigeria is

Just go and sleep

mrvitalis:

Who and you knows ??

Who ranked him richer Forbes ?
