Leader of the Reformed Ogboni Fraternity, Chief Francis Meshioye , has again debunked the public perception that the fraternity is a secret society.

Addressing newsmen in Lagos , Meshioye said there was nothing sinister in the activities of the fraternity .

“We are far from being a secret society; we are a registered entity that abides with the laws of the land and our objectives are to promote positive values, truth , justice and cultural heritage,” he said .

He explained that contrary to beliefs in some quarters, there was nothing secret or sinister about the fraternity , saying it was founded for the good of the society.

Meshionye further explained that the fraternity was actually founded in 1914 by a Christian , Deacon Jacobson Ogunbiyi , saying “the initial objective was to promote Christian values among the people . ”

He added that the group was later expanded to accommodate people of other faiths , hence the change in name from Ogboni Fraternity to Reformed Ogboni Fraternity.

Meshioye said a number of distinguished Nigerians , dead and living , were members of the group , emphasising that the fraternity was strictly for positive values.

He said it was note -worthy that the founding fathers of ROF were part of those who fought for the decolonisation of Nigeria , developed such establishments as the civil service , judiciary and many functional post- colonial institutions .
He listed some of them as late Sir Adetokunbo Ademola, late Chief Ladoke Akintola and late Sir Adeyemo Alakija.

I’m not interested.
However, Ogboni is not as bad as people are painting it.
Ogboni = Man/Men in Egba dialect. Ogboni Society literally means Men Society.
And truly it has a lot of roots in the early Orthodox Christianity setup. Anglican , Methodist , Baptist etc
Up till today, most top echelon of these churches and others in both religions [Christians and Muslims] are still covert members.

Edited: To all of you ignorant adults and indomie children, quoting me to yarn jargons, you know nothing. Read and learn.

The Reformed Ogboni Fraternity (Inc.) was instituted on 18 December 1914 by a Clergyman, the late Hon. Archdeacon T.A.J. Ogunbiyi, CBE, L. Th. of the Anglican Mission. It was later incorporated under the land (Perpetual Successions) Ordinance 1942 of the laws of the Federation of Nigeria on 17th day of June 1943.



Caveat : Views are mine and not the official position of the ROF as an institution.

Don’t be ridiculous. Because that up there is not true. Can you mention few you know that scarified their firstborn?
Most of these things are hearsay.

We have an option to choose what we want with our lifes .
I rather not join any cult and stay peaceful with my body and soul.

Is it not because of position and fame?

cool
I know a lot of ROFs and one common trait is they love laying Young girls 17-25yrs I have noticed this so I believe it’s related to rituals cause they are always rich
I have never seen a poor ROF
And reason I said it has to do with ritual is my Ex girl then dated one of them after we broke up, she was actually living the life then thinking it will last forever now babe is back to her father’s house doing London tailor plus she looks so frail last time I saw her

yes thats a fact, ogboni is a fussion of africanism and christianity

*catholics infused paganism of the romans with christianity and everyone hails them, ogboni did the same they are called satanist
*catholics burnt incents and candle, ogboni does the same they are demons
*Catholics use psalms as an incantation to invoke things and calls other gods than Jehovah(el shadai, el bla bla and many bla bla more) but should ogboni do the same we wont rest
*catholic perform rituals from solomon and davids writtings and its cool but let a black man try it then he is demonic
*catholic have a uniform should ogboni do that thenits a crime
