I understand the Oba's stance on the use of our materials for western clothes and its great advantages. How ever the beauty of Yoruba culture is it adherence to tradition. In my humble opinion a Yoruba king should not wear western clothes on the throne. I do no even believe as king he should wear western clothes, it is perhaps a sacrifice one has to make to set an example to his people. Really it is not much of a sacrifice in Yoruba land, where their beautiful clothes can compete with any clothing styles around the globe!!!!
As the son from owodo compound, thank God at last You are finally changed from wearing FULANI style of cap to real Crown of your father land ile owodo compound
What..a suit means civilization??? Lol no my brother. Im so confused. African Kings represent Africa. Let the Europeans wear our clothes on their thrones. It will never happpen. Brother you have been gone to long..sad.
Why would you refer to him as Telu the 1st? It's only when the future king is crowned and choose his regnal name as Telu the 2nd and that's when Oba Rasheed becomes Telu the 1st. I like his views and style.
This guy must be an unfortunate king, he doesn't really know what he is there to represent, somebody need to remind him that we the Africans have tradition.
Im not siding that fake king, woman beater, rapist, drug addicted, credit card frauder etc, just want to remind us here that beautiful can be use for both man nd woman but its handsome people mostly used thats why u think beautiful is not correct while using it for a man, its in dictionary, thanks
Ganiyu or what did you say your name is, in addition to my previous comment if you are born of a father you will not call another person's father a rogue. Eyin aba iluuje!
the man is funny. his knowledge of history is commendable but his idea of cultural and social attitude is messed up. "suit is civilization" , wearing traditional clothing is looking like an idol worshiper" "kings should´not indulge in Isese" and many more nonsense he has been saying . what exactly were the afobaje thinking to make this joker an Oba
I don't like this whatever he calls him self, he should stand up from that seat enough of his atrocities, his a distrace to youruba land .. I live in UK and his story is all over the place ... he forgot that vanity upon vanity all is vanity.
Oluwo of Iwo Land needs Pychiatric Test. Surely u are out of your mind. U are not fit to be King. Definitely u should leave that Palace, your time is off.
What Oba!!! Homosexual, amugbo, rascal/omoota and a scammer is what you call am Oba! Oba my foot! Go and ask Nigerians communities in Canada they will tell you all you need to know. For you information my father was never a rogue. You can insult me as much às you like it does not bother me.
I can't believe am hearing this! You are a disgrace to the throne that you occupy and Yoruba race. You cannot even make a simple straight foward sentence. Playboy, 419 Oba. Oponu.
Which kind of king is this? He is like someone brought from the psychiatry hospital to become a "king"? There is no idol worshiper in kings? What about worshipping through ancestral spirits? Yoruba has evidently lost their self-worth for sure! Oduduwa never worship idols? what was Ooni's job? Ooni Orisha! What was Ooni's job? Yeye, Egbo smoker, bastardizing the Yoruba history!
