According to history, he kill cows in every river that Ooni cross and also provide aircraft to passage Oonirisa through the journey. Read your history very well. 4 Likes 1 Share |

TAO11: You are making Ife look like an empire or one mighty kingdom which it never was. The title of “imperial majesty” is meant for emperors and conquerors neither of which Ooni of Ife is.. In comparison the Oba of Benin is an imperial majesty.. You are talking about official title, imperial majesty is not an official title given by Nigerian government I don’t know the meaning of “Oghene” in Benin language but since u know Benin language you tell me the meaning abi.. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Meninmen: Please don't forget that the governor if Edo state is the number one citizen of the state and any other persons or Oba, still line on the queue as a number. Moreover is the only one that has the constitutional right to act in his capacity. Even the Oba of Benin is still under governor's payroll. 1 Like |

Na so dem talk say dia oba no dey travel! We saw him somewhere in Abuja some time ago! All these believe in fetish powers won't take you anywhere...... An oba has been dethroned in the past and nothing happened. If it is God's will, another will be dethroned and nothing will happen. Humans should stop acting as if they are God. 3 Likes |

Possiblegee: One, you can not dethrone someone whose son is still the king till today. Secondly, he voluntarily stepped down because of the war and killings. In order to stop further bloodshed, he decided to go with them. 2 Likes 1 Share |

HAKYN1:u are very right, Imadodowa that's what yoruba call Ododowa was a bini prince from the last ogiso who was banished from bini went to settle at Ife present day Oyo state and give birth to many children including Oranmiyan after the death of the last Ogiso, Igiemew was put at the king but some bini was not happy because Igiemew was not royal blood, Oliya mobilize people to find the banished prince that's Imadodowa was now at Ife at a king so after many years of searching they finally find him at Ife but they couldn't convince him to come back to bini because he was too old to trek back to bini so he had to send he song Oranmiyan to bini 3 Likes 1 Share |

Chatbot1234: Exactly! An emperor/Empress is a king/queen of a higher and elevated status. All emperors/empreses are kings/queens, but NOT all kings/queens are emperor/empresses. The Ooni of Ife is styled as His Imperial Majesty. The Oba of Benin is NOT. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

When the traditional ruler are respected as the Governor of Edo state has demonstrated, definitely, there will always be a change of out look in the society, due to what one may call the respect of tradition because it carry with it an honor and authentic identity of who we are and to be preserved.
