Thanks for this. There are many stories regarding this. I will go and read more about the story from the Benin point of view. Thanks. You are one of the very few Great nairalanders I have met. This is how its suppose to be where we can constructively give our points. Thank you, you earned my respect. mrugly: 1 Like |

Aksnoopy: Your ignorance stinks. Ife/Modakeke crisis was actually Ife/Oyo crisis. You know nothing. |

EdoDefence: He said Yoruba and Benin had relationships and it is easy to understand because of proximity and boundaries. He never said Binis were Yorubas. STOP TRYING TO FEEL IMPORTANT BY ALL MEANS. 1 Like |

[s][/s] Alexis11:You are the ignorant one. What's the difference between what you've said and what I have stated? Modakeke people are run away slaves from oyo empire who escaped during the war that almost consumed the old oyo empire. Even if it was Ife versus oyo war, why did oyo warrior almost destroyed the whole of ile-ife, if indeed Ile-ife is the cradle of Yoruba race? Thank God for Ekiti and Ijesha warriors who prevented the total destruction of ile-Ife. |

Aksnoopy: Lol... Someone is trying to "educate" me about Ife /Modakeke crisis here lmao Nairaland is really a funny place. Fyi, Modakeke&Oyo were cut to size by the Ife warriors only. Ijesha/Ekiti warriors played no role whatsoever. You are chatting with someone that witnessed the crisis from 1997 to 2000 in Ife. 2 Likes |

marsman: I respect him and his office and has indeed visited him (in company of my MD and a few others) but I do not know where 'the King of Africa' title is coming from. What do you know about other civilizations including sub-saharan africa? Let us stick to what is being discussed. @OP I found time to go as far as Ifewara the last time i visited, what again is the connect between Ifewara and Ife? Kabiyesi told us but I have forgotten |

Anyone notice the coke bottle on the ground. IN A ROYAL PALACE. |
Re: The Beautiful Palace Of The Ooni Of Ife (Photos, Video) by Alexis11: 2:35pm On Nov 11, 2020 |
banmee: You haven't entered royal palace there. That's the grave of old kings. |

travelwaka:I was in a Zoom webinar on tourism with the Ooni some weeks back and had a glimpse of his palace. I think I have screenshots somewhere. Nice place though |

Alexis11: And that's how you respect such a revered place. By leaving trash everywhere. |
Re: The Beautiful Palace Of The Ooni Of Ife (Photos, Video) by Aksnoopy: 2:40pm On Nov 11, 2020 |
Alexis11:LMAO! FYI I am from Ekiti and I know the role Ekiti and Ijesha kings played during that war. You basically know nothing. |
Re: The Beautiful Palace Of The Ooni Of Ife (Photos, Video) by salford1: 2:40pm On Nov 11, 2020 |
travelwaka:That is because some of the body parts are divided and buried all around Ife. Some parts are buried in the palace. Nothing has changed. Still the same tradition. Remember the body of the last Ooni was seized from the family despite the family putting up a resistance after return from London. The cult that the Ooni is initiated into as part of the enthronement rites will always come for the body. https://naija247news.com/2015/08/15/confusion-at-ooni-of-ifes-palace-as-late-monarchs-wives-children-is-barred-from-burial/

Aksnoopy: You were lied to. Please discard those unfortunate rumours you heard. I still remember all the main warriors and leaders in that crisis and they were all Ife indigenes. All of them. |
Re: The Beautiful Palace Of The Ooni Of Ife (Photos, Video) by Aksnoopy: 2:49pm On Nov 11, 2020 |
Alexis11:Oga, I am an insider in the palace of the Ewi of Ado-Ekiti. So you know nothing coz you are an ordinary citizen fed with lies. The Ekiti and Ijesha obas had to intervene when the modakekes almost got to the Ile oduduwa and the ooni ran away to London. Ekiti and ijesha revere ileife because the see Ife as their home and where they all came from, as a matter of fact that's why the kings of ekiti and ijesha prostrate for the ooni when they see him. |

This is fantastic! A lot of things could be learned from this video. I’m sorry I have to rate the reporter very low. He has done his best, but a more informed and more articulate reporting will be most befitting for this recording. Well done anyway. |

Wow such a rare opportunity. I have seen some parts of the palace extremophile: |

Aksnoopy: Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade Olubuse (II) though traveled a lot, he did not go anywhere during the period the war lasted. He was busy with many offerings and sacrifices. He talked almost everyday. Rest bro. You are now sounding like a clown. |

EdoDefence:Why are you angry? He lied? If course Benin is Benin or did he said otherwise? That story he briefed is what I've also read about binis. Ile ibinu, ubini Which later transformed to bini. You have to go and learn your history. He never marginalized Benin |
