Blainz:What do u mean by not so powerful? So obi of onitsha, a first class king is not so powerful? Seems u guys don't really know what traditional rulers stand for. I don't blame people anyway. Thanks to ibadan tabloids we now have effizy kings. Somebody even said most igbos don't know of obi of onitsha. He is not a social.media king. 1 Like |

masters80: What is this one saying. They remove crown from your head, removed you from your throne, stripped you of all your title and privileges, banished you away from your kinsmen and kingdom and given no right to return and turn you to a commoner in a foreign land. What then do you call that if not being dethroned ? You go school? 4 Likes 2 Shares |

I won't talk much but do you remember the issue of Navy Captain Anthony Onyearugbulem (ex military governor of Edo state) and the Oba of Benin. If you know, you know. 4 Likes 1 Share |

The only traditional ruler on this list that should never have been listed is the Oba of Benin. That was a king who resisted the colonial slave masters and was exiled (not dethroned) by them because he chose not to be their pawn. Ovoranmen Nogbaisi is a hero and should be treated as such. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Trimque2k1:This is all nonsense. Ogiso era came to an end despite being literally the "sky god" and more powerful than the Obas. Oba of Benin can be dethroned and replaced and nothing will happen. He had better not go political and side with the losing side. 1 Like |

boogie2:The military administrator was just unfortunate thinking everything is just by gun. If it was a Yoruba military administrator or the like of Awolowo that dethroned Oba of Benin. Trust me. Nothing would have happened. It would all be voodoo vs voodoo. Awolowo would dethrone Oba of Benin and nothing would happen 3 Likes 1 Share |

Xisnin:Don't tell me about Google. To dethrone someone means you take his crown, he ceases to be king even in death, and place it on another person. In Benin Kingdom, only death takes the crown. Oba Eweka II was the first son of Oba Ovoranmen, he was crowned king after the death of his father in Calabar. Mind you, Ovoranmen's body was returned to Benin and given a King's burial according to Benin customs. His resting place is on the grounds of the Palace, only Obas are buried there. Now you are the one who should go on Google to confirm everything I have written. 6 Likes 1 Share |
