The Oba of Lagos didn't humiliate the Ooni but actually diminished himself by his actions!

The Oba or Balee of Lagos doesn't deserve to be called a Yoruba Oba. He must have bought himself to be in the throne. It was very shameful of him for acting uncivilised.

To be candid, all these new age Nigerian elevated 3rd class obas need to be put back down.

In the West of the Niger, the real premordial titles belong to those kings who participated in the Oyo civil war of the 1800s and the rulers of the Kingdoms conquered by the British in actual battles and not those who are beneficiaries of modern day Nigerian governmental elevation.

The premordial 1st class owners of the land are as I list below in no particular order:

1) Oba - Benin
2) O'oni - Ife
3) Alaafin - Oyo
4) Awujale - Ijebu
5) Alake - Egba
6) Alaketu - Ketu (extinct)
7) Olubadan (formerly Bashorun Oyo) - Ibadan
8 ) Olowu - Owu (extinct)
9) Attah - Igalla
10) Emir - Ilorin

At the time of colonial conquest (1860-1900), these were the primal kings west of the Niger and all other existing nobles were either vassals or small land holders.

Any other "first class" king today is only a creation of British rule or Nigerian era.

Alaketu and Olowu are not extinct...lol
Lagos Oba is a first class monarch. The Oba of lagos was very active in the slave trade era and had been a subject of the British for a very long time before the white men set foot on yoruba hinterland.

Oba of Lagos, doesn't mean hes the Oba of Lagos State... he just the oba of Lagos city... which doesnt include Epe and Badagry... he has no say in this two places

brightballer:
The last time Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, the Alaafin of Oyo met with Ooni of Ife, Oba Ogunwusi, they embraced with people around watching in admiration the two great custodians of our heritage as a race.

Oba Akiolu should learn from this, even as Alaafin of Oyo had issues with the late erstwhile Ooni of Ife.

Custodian of shirk..

Lagos Oba is a first class monarch. The Oba of Lagos was very active in the slave trade era and had been a subject of the British for a very long time before the white men set foot on Yoruba hinterland.

The original Ketu and Owu were destroyed in the civil war along with their royal lines. The Owu nobles you have today rose from Owu refugee camps in Abeokuta after the 1894 cease fire. It is therefore not the primordial line.

As for your other claim, there was no Lagos and no Oba of Lagos until the British created such office for their own benefit in 1865. What existed was an oba at Iga Idugaran whose rule only covered Isale Eko and Ebute. He had pairs and was only first among equals to the Onikoyi and the rulers of Epe, Isale Odo, Ikorodu etc. The Olota of Ota and the rulers of Agbadaigi controlled more territory and wielded more influence in the hinterland than he did.

Ultimately, in the Yoruba psyche from 1500 to 1890, you could be born, live to full age and die without ever hearing of Eko or Iga Idugaran. That land and its title was that insignificant in that period until the British/Nigerian era.

Respect is very paramount in the yoruba culture. And as a supposedly guardian and preserver of culture and tradition, oba akiolu should do better than that!

I'm happy you used supposedly for that despicable tout

vayne:
When we were telling you lots to condemn and cut the excesses of Oba akiolu during the lagoon saga,you where cheering him,forming "sufferisticated",now e don reach turn of not just anyone,a first class King

Thesame disastrous Agbero of a king dictated for them during the 2015 election.

Yoruba is respectful my foot!

which turn, which respect, just watch. you think this is an igbo chieftaincy title. obas are not to be respected, they are to be feared. anyway what do you know about the ooni. this is why lagoon is your portion

,............ DAT man ehhhhnnnn

OK
