The bigger question is, where was all this $tupid energy and magical powers to turn people to goats when white men colonized Africa. I still ponder till today, upon all the supposed jazz they bowed down to white men and turned their own people to slaves for fear of being killed by the white men's power guns. This rubbish beliefs only affects those that believe in it. Why should you keep someone waiting for 3 whole hours.The queen of England will certainly not do that. Africa needs some serious help.

keneck1:
my friend go and seat down he should have left now was he not the one that wanted to see the Ooni,probably you have soft spot for yele but his arrogance is just so irritating this is Africa you respect the king so that kingship can get to you.

would it had made sense to leave?
no honestly imagine if he left do u know the brouhaha that would have followed it would have been way worse than delay his prostration to the ooni


and about respecting the king , yes u respect the king but there are certain things that are expected of kings

and it's not like sowore didn't prostate at the end he only delayed it to show how upset he was which was well within his rights to be

oluwaseyi000:
You kept someone waiting for THREE HOURS, so Oni expect Sowore to apologize to him (Oni) for keeping him (Sowore) waiting for three hours.

Oni better apologize and explain reason for his lateness or is it african time syndrome?

You could have turned him to goat if it's the ancient kings?, what a joke?

No wonder during the slave trades when the British attacked none of the so called king of old can turn them to goat, they simply become slaves .

Sue him t court na if you desperately need prostration, who prostration help?

You dey mind them? I like this Sowore's guts.

edeXede:


Throne bought with money commands no respect.
Things has fallen apart and the center holds no longer.
I wouldn't be surprised if Sowore have indicting info about the king

Hehehe. Since it's Sowore, I won't either.

We need Sowore for Presidency. Someone with guts.

Exactly. Someone with guts. Stuck it to Mr Ogunwusi.

keneck1:
president in which country in which year I can't stop laughing whenever I hear stuffs like this.No nobody is saying he can't be president but not in 2019 pls advice to go start from councillorship in local government area.

listen it's okay for u to be skeptical about him cause u think based on the history of Nigeria someone like him can't be president just like that BUT there is a first time for everything

u might think that he is not known but by next year when the campaigns start we'll see just how widely he'll be accepted

so u can be skeptical but saying stuff like it's a sure thing is wrong , are u an ESPER? a seer?
nothing is ever 100% sure especially in Nigeria

but now the question is do u like him enough to vote for him ?if u do vote if not then don't

don't try and cut him b4 he has a chance to grow simply because u think he won't succeed


and where the hell is it said that to become president u have to have started at the local government level , we need fresh minds and if all of them have to pass through these levels set by u how old will they be by the time they can become president ?

E for to sweet for Asun.

keneck1:
my friend sowore is just a joker go advice him to start from councillorship from his local government area

Remind me who you are, I might have missed it. The presidents we've had in this country don't have two heads, I'll like to think all of them combined have less than one functional head, otherwise, why is Nigeria the way it is?
If you think he is not fit to be president, it's your personal problem!

valboy20:
What a load of steaming turd!

Can anyone tell me the importance/usefulness of Ooni in our current society apart from our love for outmoded and backward traditions?

Shut up and show some courtesy to our king.....

What the essence of a custom/tradition when the King whose himself do not stay in his land, activities in the land is almost lifeless.

akinsammy:

You have slavery tendency in a 21st century.

Sowore shouldn't have said that was why he didn't prostrated to the king. It's an act of arrogant. Yoruba proper shouldn't behaved like that. He needs to tender apology for that.

Antoeni:
If Sowore had displayed this Kind of Rudeness and Arrogance Before the Oba of Benin, By now he would have been Deaf and Dumb, coupled with Epileptic and Leprous.
Well his Downfall has jst began.

nonsense talk ...

Even if we were to choose President among South West, Sowore can never win. Talk less of becoming the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
The guy must be high on something.

Daydreamers everywhere.

Sarkin:
Just as the 'pigs' of Biafra?

A goat...seriously, GTFOH

Who has time to argue with a fool. He has personally nailed hos own coffin. He must go and sleep and dream money he has hasmade him gone mad.

And this got me off... That asshole can never be a commission in Nigeria talkless of President.... I hate him with passion

aguyph:
nne gi there m Onye izuma.

what's the essence of sending a message one can't understand and won't bother to?

As for me and my household, it is .
OMOYELE SOWORE FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!! AAC TAKE IT BACK

The King does not deserve any prostration after saying jesus is his father.....

Hahaha theoretically it gladdens the heart of the politically naive,now let me even ask you what structure does he even have in his ward or even the ward were you are typing this theoretical politics from,anyway let me be frank with you sowore does not have what it takes to win a councillorship election i n his ward which translate that even in his ward he may come a distant third position when results of 2019 presidential elections are declared in his ward,if you doubt me ask people like Okoties of these world the likes of Pat Utomi,Dele Momodu and the rest of them.

Why are Nigerians so freaking Stupid! You have a young , progressive, vibrant, intelligent candidate like Sowore, and you are here talking nonsense. Out of every candidate I have seen, Sowore cares the most about Nigeria and is not afraid to call out the failure and hypocrisy of the elites. But clowns like you want the Status Quo. If Nigeria continues on this rubbish path we are on, the country is doomed.

hahaha I bet you so wore cannot deliver his ward in the upcoming elections come 2019 from the house of Assembly up to the presidential elections,were is the structure to do that for him,anyway dreaming is allowed and were is the money to even fund his one room, one man party keep deluding yourself which of course is your personal problem.

Sowore, i'm campaigning for you to win and by His grace you will win. Now, as a Yoruba man, you know the tradition that you should prostrate when you see your elders, the Oni is not just an elder but a king, my dear, even if you wanted to protest for the delay, you should have done the right thing. I hope you visit again to make amends before the election? Even me, am not Yoruba but kneel down to greet elders at my age. It is respect.

As for who I am, a am a realistic political analyst who has been following politics from the days of Abacha at a very tender age at that,not people like you that started following political happenings just because social media allowed even people that have no voters card to rant on the net,I repeat sowore cannot deliver his ward in the upcoming elections keep deceiving yourself if you like believe what I just shared with you that's your problem.

Something must definitely be wrong with this writer...it's either he's suffering from Generational slavery or everlasting illusion or hallucination...Anyways, his family might hv suffered dat fate, dat why he must hv wished that innocent man such lot.....You wasted and abandoned somebody for several hrs, only for him to humbly and respectfully expressed his depression and then still went ahead to honor the King with several prostration. and yet teargased away and almost suffocated all in d name of seeing the Ooni. was he's visit not day and time scheduled by the palace bfr he visited ? Even the Oduduwa house knew wat Shame that incident brought to it and they were quick to tender an unreserved apology....Our culture is a disciplined one and so must b the custodian of it...Wat stupid yoruba culture says u shuld not express ur grievances even to the king....And u re here analysing rubbish....#Ewure#

What a bunch of clowns! Always trying to divert attention from several years of societal failure - na culture, prostrate etc dey build nations? To build ordinary bicycle na wahala but to show skills on how to dobale like lizard na gold medal. Yoruba Ro'nu - this is 2018. Children are building robots & tech apps that address real-life problems in serious societies while you are busy trying to rewind yourself back to the era & generation of your great great grandfathers via hilarious culture and tradition. News for you, culture evolves - it is just a way of life based on people's horizon at any point in time e.g. killing of twins was normal at a point, so also keeping of slaves, huge tribal marks etc. GTFOH!!

Facking traditionists at it again

Who prostration epp?

Sowore needs to continue being the boss that he is abeg.
That you are the chief of one village does not mean that you will be late and still be expecting to be bowed to.
There are other chiefs the man plans to go see.

This man called Sowore really got it all wrong. He surely knows the Yoruba culture, you disrespected their oba(king) you will be hated forever. Even if you really wanted to disrespect any obas, it shouldn't the OONI 'risa'. As for you Seyi, keep it up, when you visit any oba, I mean any, just tell him you wouldn't prostrate, then you will know that you are nothing...
