ALAAFIN OYO FLEW TO BENIN WITH HIS PRIVATE JET TO CELEBRATE GABRIEL IGBINEDION 85TH BIRTHDAY 

Well said. I was happy she did that.

Wow. You guys are happy? These traditions and people have kept us in abject poverty and slave mentality. Sad.

Lucky

The first is always the real. The rest na status

Na him be ur president??...lol

They have no say in this.

They have no say period.

Actually i don't think so, cos there is protocol and procedures in his home.

They can only grumble internally.They will go for other occasions. Everything is done in turns, even sharing room with him.Wait for your turn but there are other occasions where he takes all of them out.I have seen that before.

Well, like I said.. IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW.

If u dummies don't hold your governors accountable for the states progress but prefer bags of rice with back payment & being refugees abroad then what do u expect?

@@oweakala7234 Sis, what has the fact that cheryl failed to greet the Alaafin properly and thr Alaafin's wife being younger got to do with "spring chicken"? Would she have greeted the Oba of Benin like she did the Alaafin? She knows our culture as a woman married to a very "High Chief" in Benin Kingdom. It's just disrespectful in my opinion.

Good question. Esama’s wife is a West Indian, Jamaican precisely so she’s not brought up to kneel down.

@@pauloduye2241 with due respect l disagree with u. She has been married to the Esema for long as l can remember. She is also the wife of one of the "highest chiefs" in Benin Kingdom. So she knows the culture and married into it. Would she have greeted the Esema's parents were they to be alive? I bet not. The Alaafin is one of the paramount rulers in Nigeria. She even stretched her hands out to shake the Alaafin! Lack of respect. Am so happy the Alaafin did not shake her hand. I blame the Esema. She should have been schooled. I sure she would never greet the Oba of Benin like that. We have a culture that teaches us how to greet our elders and our traditional rulers. This is unacceptable. Let call a spade a spade. The Esema even gave up his seat on his own house for the Alaafin. Cheryl has lived in Nigeria and exposed to our culture for her to know right from wrong. This is not about money, it's about our culture and tradition that she took on when she married the Esema. Once again kudos to the Olori for doing the right thing.

Olu akinwale. You’re absolutely right. For Esama to have been married to her for so long it means she’s doing something right to extent her husband accepts that side of her own upbringing and covers her up. It seems the Esama gave up his seat to percify Iku Baba Yeye for the ‘disrespect’ of even wanting to shake hands. Alafin’s olori on the other hand couldn’t have behaved otherwise. West Indians and oyinbos won’t kneel down or prostrate for anyone till Kingdom come. Oluwo’s wife doesn’t too. And if we can borrow a leaf from the great man; Igbinedion and Alaafin; that’s a lesson in compromise.

@@oweakala7234 am sorry that not an excuse. A King is a King. She also had the opportunity to hold on to say a chair as support. She chose not to. Also did u see her stretched her right hand out to shake the Alaafin? Alaafin did not respond to her request for hand shake. We need to stop making up excuses for unacceptable behaviours such as this. It's not right.

Is anything wrong about that if they have the money?

Am telling you lol

Adewole Odunayo His wife is not Nigerian.

You can't blame her cos no one know her health status as we can all see she is an old woman considering her age and size she might be having some leg problem.... don't let us draw conclusion from afar.... trying to shake the king is rude but if you watch the video carefully she try to bend slightly when giving her gesture handshake... just my opinion right or wrong

@Yemisi - what culture! Benin Kingdom culture is similar to that of Yorubas. The kneel down to greet. If Cheryl meets the Oba of Benin she will get down on her two knees. The Alaafin is not just a ordinary Oba, he is one of the paramount traditional rulers in Nigeria. Did u see how Obasanjo and others greeted him? If not, watch the video. We have cultures and traditions.

@Elizabeth Sey Jesus is a myth & didn't exist but the Orishas did. U r a big fool for bringing up Jesus that was given to u by your colonizers..

they are yorubeni

please dont be miss inform or miss educated. It is very easy for the yorobas to miss interpret this, because they have the population and the media power more than the benins. To make this short. Google why lagos does not belong to Yorubas by - Oba Akiolu. (The oba of lagos). Paragraph 8 and 9 will tell you more, if yoroba is part of benin kingdom or the other way round. For your information, the Benin man that the yoroba king came to visit is a chief, not a king.

Izoduwa know as Oduduwa by the yorobas was the son of Ogiso (Now Oba of benin). Not the other way round.

The izoduwa tale is very doubtful. At any rate, Yoruba history is different from the history of Lagos and the Oba of Lagos throne. As I am a core Lagosian, I know that the Oba of Lagos is a foreigner (just like the house of weeks currently ruling the Benins are foreigners). In fact, history is full of royalties who are foreigners I.e. the current family ruling Great Britain are of Germanic heritage, they are not British. So I believe the same situation existing in Lagos, exists in Benin and exist in england. As a lagosian, I know who the land owning families of lagos are and the ruling family in lagos island have no historical claim to land or to a truly yoruba crown as far as I know. That is y today all of Loki and ope, badagry and have kings. So don't confuse the history of Lagos with the history of yoruba. The oldest brass face in Nigeria comes from Ife (the head of ooni). It is still in the British museum today. He was made 100 of years before the Benin bronze heads. In fact, there is oral history in Benin saying the Benins learnt bronze carving from the people of Ife. That may be a pointer as to where the royal blood line of the oba of benin. Obviously the benins are not yoruba just as lagosians are not Benins. It is the royal families that are just foreigners. My 2cents.

@@yemiadeleke4197 Before u start narrating nonsense tell us the origin of the word Yoruba?The word yoruba for your information is corrupted from the word yariba the name hause fulani who conquered oyo called the people of oyo Ife custome says your oduduwa was a foreigner.Till.today Yoruba do not know the origin of oduduwa.

Work hard my dear friend....

Is it the duty of Oba today to do that, or that of your two former president sitting down there? The celebrant has done his best as an entrepreneur to achieve what his enjoying now. It is for you to discover opportunity in the present situation of the nation to make money and don't complain. Riches do hide under challenges, if you can solve the challenge, you get the money. Example, if you are a water producer in Nigeria, there is market for you.

Then ask yourself why are some using thiers to affect the people positively and some don't. ..i do hope you sell water?

Is it a crime for an Oba to own a jet? If political office holder of between 4 to 12 or 16 could amount wealth to own luxury cars and jet, what about an Oba that reign on the throne for over 50 years?

Yes to both. There is a country called Republic of Benin sharing boundary with Nigeria on the south west of Nigeria but this Benin city, is a city in Edo state Nigeria.

The former"Benin empire" capital is now the Benin city in Nigeria " the Benin republic real name is dahomey " they abducted the name Benin in 1970's in honor of the greatness of the former " Benin empire " which once ruled over some states now in the eastern part of Nigeria and southern states of Nigeria including Lagos " badagry " this Same Benin republic then known as dahomey all the way to Togo republic and parts of Ghana "..the splendor was so great that it single handedly changed the western narrative of saying blacks where primitives "..check out the history in" British botanical ".

i am the one that will be telling you ti go do research

Is he on state visit, or an invitation for special event? Why do you expect him to go and visit the oba in Benin?

@@normal_side it's a culture in Africa a king do not go to other kingdom without paying a visit to the king of the land, no matter the occasion he's up for. he would be embarrassed if the oba did same. it is called mutual respect

@@dannymetal632 Are you aware that Alaafin was not the only king in attendance of the ceremony? Ooni, Osemawe & others are there.

@@normal_side I spent my live in the osemowe palace bro, they r lesser king, the Alaafin is suppose to honour the king because the king is his ancestral

The oba of Benin doesn't attend " parties its forbidden.its an ancient Edo culture and tradition ".

Sa'ad Oluwakayode what are you implying? Alaafin is so wealthy to have 3 private jets to his disposal if you may know.

@Yemisi what are u saying. So because she is old is a reason not to kneel down for a King! How old is she gaan! Is she older than the Alaafin even if the Alaafin happens not to be a King?

@@oweakala7234 what are the obvious Yemisi is explained! Reasons giving by u and Yemisi makes no sense.

Women cannot become king in Benin, fyi.

@@nosaoyemade9618 - thank you Nosa for enlightening Yemisi. She seems to know little or nothing about the different cultures and traditions in Nigeria. If u don't know; find out, not putting out incorrect information that misinformed and confuses others.

Pls guys that's not the Benin king, he is a chief under the Benin king there's a difference.

And which one is more civilize and sucessfull .thats d most important

Meself na laugh I dey ooo,see drama.

You will be shocked by the mystery behind that side of things.

On the flip side,she may not be happy emotionally but she's financially happy.She's got all that she could ever think of. And guess what,she dares not see another man.Na Death. Even Men cannot chase after her.Na Death

No strength. All of those younger men working for the oba are going to be helping the oba's wife in the bedroom department. Even viagra will not wake his wrinkled dead penis. If they do DNA on those new kids,many will be NEGATIVE.NOT HIS CHILDREN.

Those money hungry younger wives are just there for his wealth.

at 82 his skins would have been rotten, but his skins is still smooth or you are a skins bleach expert?

dayo olabode look at his both hands... they are very dark compared to his face. He is definitely bleaching.

@Erik Wilson, when you call someone that can be of your father a brain dead and someone that can be your grand father a bleach, it speaks volumes of the type of home training you have.

@@abprecious9554 he is not bleaching if you know him in the 80s, you can keep bleach skins for long because it destroys the ligaments, it will not be darker but greenish.

But sir, that was then,but don't forget all the king are now under local government

@@adewoleodunayo3360 the oba of Benin is I think under state government because we don't have 2 kings in Benin..well it's still possible tho because of parts of Edo state have enogies" which is really a little lesser in power than the king".

Maybe there is one on his land. It is a small plane,you don't need airport,you need an drive way to land. There is a neighborhood here in America that most of the neighbors have a small jet and they have a big garage for the jets and a drive way next to their houses to land their jet.

Yes

Yes, at Alakia Ibadan

Yes there is airport in ibadan

King Gaius ..yes and when it hs to do wt culture my edo people will raise eyes!!!!..even if u dont follow yoruba culture of kneeling as respect,must u offer a hand shake!!!!! That's gross and shameful cos she should know better..a slight curtesy would have been appropriate..even d western world know what curtsies mean!!!!!

Well the hand shakes just happened to be the Edo people culture of greetings..we knee and raise the right hand for the " King" but Rowling on the floor is strictly reserved for God almighty alone" .

Engracedlola thank you

david soul you are trying to justify what you know is wrong even in Edo culture. Do you get people offer handshakes to elders in Edo culture? 😏
