Which history exactly?

The man is telling a bitter truth

There were aboriginal people in so called Yorubaland before Oduduwa arrived very long before he arrived which was only about 1000 years ago

Ifa was there before he arrived
The language was there before he arrived
Kaaro Ojire was there before he arrived.



The other thing was there is NOTHING like Yorubaland before Nigeria. The people of Ajase(porto Novo) in Benin republic are called Anago

The YORUBA project is the Oyo empire project. The Empire is dead how then can Alaafin be appoint Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland
He is Aare Kakanfo of Oyo .
We must not forget that Oyo NEVER subdued ALL of Yorubaland when it was at its peak.
The Ijebu are not part of Oyo Empire

Yes for the purpose of Nigeria we must unite but not when it means restarting an Oyo Empire by stealth.

The Other Nations in the region do not recognize any natural supremacy of Oyo trying to assert this is like Britain trying to dominate the USA today

shocked shocked shocked

I thought it's his money that is making him misbehave. Now I learnt something, thanks. Despite that he should not claim to be the head of all Yoruba land kings. Even in Ondo state, is he the head of all the kings there ? Just wish to know.

The Oba believes that Oduduwa who was from Benin met his ancestors in Ife. According to him, Oduduwa who is a foreign king in Ife can't be senior to him who was met on the ground. Yoruba history sort of supports the Oba's position because it agrees that Oduduwa was actually from somewhere else and non native, some said from the sky, others said from Saudi Arabia. The Benins believe he was heir to the last Benin Ogiso (king from the Sky), this was what Oduduwa actually told Ife people when he got there, hence the believe by some that he climbed down from the Sky
Until people are prepared to subdue ethnic pride and sit down to collectively research Ife and Benin history there will always be room for confusion. I have argued it here for years and I have been banned for speaking up here.
These days ethnic or monarchical supremacy has no relevance. Therfore nobody should be afraid of objectively researching history.

But in Nigeria we politicise everything so that truth has no place.

Gani Adams want this Oba to accept the superiority of foreigner Oduduwa just like the Northerners accepted the superiority of the foreign fulani Emirates and the way the Igbos accepted the superiority of the Obi of Onitsha who is also a foreign king in Igbo land. The Alafi and Ooni are all children of foreign Oduduwa according to Yoruba history.

I do not necessarily agree with him but he is free to claim what he likes

There are two sides to every story

Let us be open minded

Monarchies typically have some external input and a need to rewrite history to justify their continued hold on power

Today the King of Morocco claims to be a direct descendant of prophet Muhammad


Fact is the aboriginal peoples were colonized by an external class of people . Some fled perhaps as far as Warri

Whichever king is head can always be rewritten

The Sultan is treated as most senior king in Nigeria when in reality there is nothing royal about his lineage

Uthman dan Fodio was not a king or in any way royal and his "dynasty is just 215 years old
The Shehu of Borno is over 1000 years old

Very soon we will come and occupy our land, ife which was founded by an igbo prince Odudunwa who was banished from igbo land when he committed an abominable crime. He went yo ile-ife, settled there first as the earliest inhabitant married and had children before dirty beyerebe yolowbas came and joined him at ife

Igbos are the for-runners of ife and will kick you lazy and ungrateful beyerebes out soon back to sudan where you originally migrated from

What’s the noise about? The only one who can crown general Yorubaland title is our paramount ruler and the head of all OBA ALADE, the one and only empirical Oba, Alaafin Oyo, the rest are just mad. This is just the beginning, it will get worse, we didn’t call out Ooni of Ife when he’s doing the same trying to usurp his superior, the Alaafin. Yoruba ti gbe omo oba f’osun and have to bear the consequence.

Alaafin has rubished his responsibility, he marries all these young girls and indulges himself in corruption and politics. Ooni of Ife seems to carry himself with higher esteem and regards. How can all the other Obas in Yorubaland respect forefront kings when they act like small boys.

A 40 year old Ooni has a better posture than a 90 year old Alaafin who seems to be reaching his hand far enough to shake Ooni and hold him for support. So try again, mischievous you. Didn’t you also spread news on how Alaafin bowed down for Buhari and his wife? Alaafin is the father of all, old age is making the emperor calm, a new and young Alaafin will reclaim his mandate.

You mean that the Alaafin of Oyo bows to the Ooni only because the Ooni his 40 and he is 90? Okay I have heard you. grin grin

In a manner similar to his bowing to the superior authority of the Ooni of Ife, he also bows to the President and his wife because they control more power and authority than he does.

What is too difficult for you to understand in that?



Just Some Quick Questions For You:

1.) Who is the founder of Oyo kingdom according to whatever version of history you read?

2.) Where did this founder of Oyo kingdom hail from?

3.) And who is his father?

so is oluigbo correct with his claims ? ket's dissect 1 - MIGRATED FROM IFE ; erm , YES, but so do many yoruba towns and kings ( alaafin , owa obokun et al ) 2 - your ancestors left their land and their subject for what reason exactly ? and remember the oracle foretold the coming of a king to the multitude living in IFE ? so how does that work as there was already royalty in the land if we are to go by the olugbo's claim ? 3 - A KING DOES NOT LEAVE HIS PEOPLE TO BE KING SOMEWHERE ELSE - these were the words of the wise king ODUDUWA when benin chiefs came to plead with him to return home to his ancestral seat as the ogiso , offering them his youngest son instead .which begs the question ,why did the progenitors of the UGBO royal stool dump their subjects in ife to be king somewhere else (UGBO)? 4 -REMEMBER MOREMI ? well this brave ife lady sacrified a lot to save IFE from the menace of MARAUDERS cloaked in ghoully attires FROM , wait for it , UGBOLAND ! !MASKED UP LIKE THIEVES TO ATTACK YOUR OWN LAND ?

You Benin have to stop lying and stop trying to distort Yoruba History


Even Oranmiyan was not the son of Oduduwa but the Grand son of Oduduwa, all you Benin Does is lying and falsification.

You are already twisting and lying about what the King said

Oduduwa hails from within Yorubaland, Nigeria.

When The Emperorsic reigns on the throne, Arabia wasn't even in existence.

These times depict when the only people on the planet are residents of the African continent; blacksic, brown and, or, bronze.
