00:00:00,080 –> 00:00:03,399
Speaker 1: Queen Noah Magbe Awuare the Second is the fourth wife

2
00:00:03,480 –> 00:00:07,559
of Benin Monic, his Royal Majesty Oberware two, and the

3
00:00:07,639 –> 00:00:11,599
queen is also the biological sister of the Ober’s fifth wife,

4
00:00:11,880 –> 00:00:15,640
Queen isosa Uare the Second. On Thursday, early morning night,

5
00:00:16,079 –> 00:00:20,039
Queen Noah Magbe apparently used a proxy TikTok account named

6
00:00:20,160 –> 00:00:24,480
Queen ewuaa back up and accused the Benin Traditional Council

7
00:00:24,960 –> 00:00:29,839
BTC of dishonest behavior, categorically stating the BTC lie that

8
00:00:30,000 –> 00:00:34,880
nigeria prominent social media streamer babib hamzat Ad Larger aka

9
00:00:35,039 –> 00:00:38,079
Pella was not authorized access into the palace of the

10
00:00:38,079 –> 00:00:41,679
Benin Monarch, where she accidentally met Pella and gave him

11
00:00:41,679 –> 00:00:44,719
a motherly welcome as the queen of the ober An action,

12
00:00:45,079 –> 00:00:48,799
the BTC has alleged she breached the palace protocol, hence

13
00:00:49,039 –> 00:00:51,840
she risked being removed or sent packing from the palace.

14
00:00:52,159 –> 00:00:55,600
According to Queen Noa Magbee in the apparent TikTok social

15
00:00:55,679 –> 00:00:59,039
media proxy account, Feller’s visit to the palace is a

16
00:00:59,079 –> 00:01:01,960
mere cover up that a lots has been happening behind

17
00:01:02,000 –> 00:01:05,120
closed door. She supported her claim with a document that

18
00:01:05,200 –> 00:01:08,760
suggests the Benin Traditional Council was aware of Pella coming

19
00:01:08,840 –> 00:01:12,200
to the palace, and the document dated February twenty third,

20
00:01:12,280 –> 00:01:16,400
twenty twenty six indicated that the BTC received and acknowledged

21
00:01:16,400 –> 00:01:20,000
the letter of peller planned visit, but if the BTC

22
00:01:20,200 –> 00:01:22,879
actually wrote back to Pella to notify him about the

23
00:01:22,959 –> 00:01:26,799
acceptance or rejection of his request was not stated this.

24
00:01:27,439 –> 00:01:32,079
The president of i gurbasm Me Movement Worldwide Assarro Culture Yarmu,

25
00:01:32,200 –> 00:01:35,280
counted the document and said the receipt of letter at

26
00:01:35,319 –> 00:01:39,719
any institution registry doesn’t amount to approval. However, the moment

27
00:01:39,760 –> 00:01:44,280
the letter is received at Orevied Palace Registry, it’s forwarded

28
00:01:44,319 –> 00:01:47,599
to the private office of ober of Benin, His Royal

29
00:01:47,680 –> 00:01:53,079
Majesty Homo nober needo Uku Acuologpolo ober uare two. Ober

30
00:01:53,159 –> 00:01:56,640
of Benin will then instruct the Secretary of Benin Traditional

31
00:01:56,680 –> 00:02:00,680
Council BTC to either write formally or call those seeking

32
00:02:00,719 –> 00:02:03,439
for approval of their letters, especially as its relate to

33
00:02:03,560 –> 00:02:07,359
royal visitations. Those who lured and deceived Pella without the

34
00:02:07,400 –> 00:02:11,599
approval of Benin Traditional Council BTC of the real problem

35
00:02:11,960 –> 00:02:15,039
for the avoidance of doubts. Queen no Magbe may not

36
00:02:15,199 –> 00:02:18,039
be first Ober wife to be sent packing from the

37
00:02:18,080 –> 00:02:21,560
palace over breached of access into the monic palace. The

38
00:02:21,599 –> 00:02:25,599
ober eldest wife, Queen ero gama Uare two, had been

39
00:02:25,759 –> 00:02:28,639
sent packing from the palace simply because one of the

40
00:02:28,639 –> 00:02:32,240
biological children of the Ober entered the palace allegedly in

41
00:02:32,319 –> 00:02:35,280
a manner the Ober did not like. This was made

42
00:02:35,319 –> 00:02:39,080
known in a reactionary public letter issued on December thirtieth,

43
00:02:39,159 –> 00:02:43,319
twenty twenty five by Prince as Eleki Uare the second,

44
00:02:43,719 –> 00:02:46,199
the Ober’s eldest son, who is believed to be the

45
00:02:46,240 –> 00:02:49,960
next Ober of Benin. According to Prince as Eleki, I

46
00:02:50,000 –> 00:02:53,120
want to make it very clear my mother did nothing wrong.

47
00:02:53,479 –> 00:02:57,479
Six months ago, my youngest brother allegedly barged into the

48
00:02:57,520 –> 00:03:01,719
palace wanting to see his father. Our father wasn’t happy

49
00:03:01,800 –> 00:03:05,000
with his approach. As a result, my mother was told

50
00:03:05,000 –> 00:03:07,439
to leave the palace. I would like to use this

51
00:03:07,599 –> 00:03:10,840
medium to plead on behalf of your senior children. You

52
00:03:10,919 –> 00:03:14,599
wouldn’t see your second son, your third son, and your

53
00:03:14,639 –> 00:03:18,520
second daughter. Please, whatever our father said they did wrong,

54
00:03:18,960 –> 00:03:23,000
please forgive and forget. Time is precious. We want togetherness,

55
00:03:23,280 –> 00:03:25,639
not the vision. On the issue he had with the

56
00:03:25,719 –> 00:03:30,240
Ober over the establishment of the Museum of West African Art, Mowar.

57
00:03:30,599 –> 00:03:33,960
Princess Eleeki said some of the Ober’s children only reach

58
00:03:34,080 –> 00:03:36,599
him through middlemen, unders such he does not have the

59
00:03:36,639 –> 00:03:41,159
phone number of his biological father Ober Huare too, saying

60
00:03:41,520 –> 00:03:44,479
what really caused the issue between my father and I

61
00:03:44,680 –> 00:03:47,479
was that while I was in Germany, I overheard my

62
00:03:47,639 –> 00:03:50,840
father say unpleasant things about me to a public figure

63
00:03:50,879 –> 00:03:53,800
on the phone. I got upset and raised my voice

64
00:03:53,800 –> 00:03:56,719
to my father, something I have never done in my

65
00:03:57,080 –> 00:04:01,240
entire life. As for me, my own father intentionally chose

66
00:04:01,280 –> 00:04:04,159
to compose a speech and talk about his eldest son

67
00:04:04,280 –> 00:04:07,919
for a whole five minutes to wash me publicly over

68
00:04:08,039 –> 00:04:14,319
material things, objects artifacts, a museum. Obuseki, you said, Obuseki

69
00:04:14,360 –> 00:04:18,279
co opted your eldest son Before Prince as Eleki issued

70
00:04:18,279 –> 00:04:21,600
the public statements about his father. The Ober had on

71
00:04:21,680 –> 00:04:26,040
November seven, twenty twenty five, during his official and ceremonial

72
00:04:26,160 –> 00:04:29,680
visit to the Edo State Government House in Benin City,

73
00:04:30,079 –> 00:04:33,240
called out his eldest son, Prince as Eleki, in a

74
00:04:33,279 –> 00:04:36,120
manner that seems to suggest as if the reigning Ober

75
00:04:36,160 –> 00:04:39,639
of Benin Kingdom has the power to choose his successor

76
00:04:39,839 –> 00:04:42,600
or the power to decide of whom become the Crown

77
00:04:42,680 –> 00:04:47,480
Prince Eddikin, and thus oberwuare two created this impression when

78
00:04:47,519 –> 00:04:50,120
he said during his speech at the Government House that

79
00:04:50,199 –> 00:04:52,720
being the first male child of the Ober does not

80
00:04:52,800 –> 00:04:56,120
automatically make you the Crown Prince of Benin Kingdom and

81
00:04:56,160 –> 00:04:59,240
the Eddaikin of Osselu, saying it is only when the

82
00:04:59,279 –> 00:05:02,480
reigning OBERSI send a person to be the Edaiku nova Selu,

83
00:05:02,759 –> 00:05:05,319
that is when the person is qualified to be seen

84
00:05:05,399 –> 00:05:08,199
and called the cran Prince of Benin Kingdom and the

85
00:05:08,360 –> 00:05:13,120
Edaiku nova Selu. Apparently angered by these words, Prince Azleekai

86
00:05:13,240 –> 00:05:17,519
on November eleventh, twenty twenty five, issued a statement of apology,

87
00:05:17,560 –> 00:05:20,920
apparently in an aggressive manner, demanding that the Ober can

88
00:05:20,959 –> 00:05:25,800
take away the titles of Crown Prince, Edaikin, vaslu okonyukua

89
00:05:26,360 –> 00:05:30,600
Ure and Prince from him, but his biological name as

90
00:05:30,639 –> 00:05:35,199
Eleki meaning river does not flow and carry away sand

91
00:05:35,399 –> 00:05:38,680
or wash away sand should not be tempered with, saying

92
00:05:39,000 –> 00:05:41,360
the name of Zeleeki was given to him by his

93
00:05:41,480 –> 00:05:46,079
grandfather and we believed the name a Zeleeki probably has

94
00:05:46,120 –> 00:05:49,040
a more deeper meaning in line with the traditions and

95
00:05:49,120 –> 00:05:52,839
laws of the people of Benin Kingdom, which significantly also

96
00:05:52,959 –> 00:05:58,959
means leadership, government. Oberor river may flow and change, but

97
00:05:59,120 –> 00:06:03,839
the people, their culture, and their traditions the sand remain

98
00:06:03,959 –> 00:06:07,279
firmly in place. In line with the foregoing, we are

99
00:06:07,319 –> 00:06:10,199
not aware of any aspect of the Benin traditions that

100
00:06:10,279 –> 00:06:12,920
gives an Ober or any human on earth the power

101
00:06:13,000 –> 00:06:16,600
to choose or decide who becomes the Crown Prince Edikon

102
00:06:16,759 –> 00:06:19,720
or the next over of Benin. But in line with

103
00:06:19,800 –> 00:06:22,759
Benin traditions and history, we may not be wrong to

104
00:06:22,800 –> 00:06:25,759
say it is only God Almighty that has the power

105
00:06:25,800 –> 00:06:28,639
to choose and decide for the people of Benin Kingdom

106
00:06:28,720 –> 00:06:31,480
the person who is qualified to be seen and called

107
00:06:31,519 –> 00:06:36,360
the Crown Prince Eddikon and finally the ob of Benin Kingdom. Historically,

108
00:06:36,720 –> 00:06:40,639
only God Almighty choose who becomes the Crown Prince Edikon

109
00:06:40,720 –> 00:06:43,480
and Ober by birth and preservation of the life of

110
00:06:43,519 –> 00:06:46,480
such a person till when times permit him to be

111
00:06:46,519 –> 00:06:50,319
the Crown Prince subsequently become the Edikan and finally the

112
00:06:50,360 –> 00:06:53,439
Ober of Benin Kingdom, and for the purpose of clarity,

113
00:06:53,759 –> 00:06:56,279
we may not be wrong to say the Benin traditions

114
00:06:56,360 –> 00:06:59,399
demand the eldest male child of the reigning Ober to

115
00:06:59,439 –> 00:07:02,199
be seen and called the crown Prince until a time

116
00:07:02,439 –> 00:07:06,079
the reigning Ober is aware or expecting to join his ancestors.

117
00:07:06,399 –> 00:07:09,480
The reigning Ob will now notify or call the crown

118
00:07:09,560 –> 00:07:12,720
Prince and send him to Osselu as the Eddikin of Osselu,

119
00:07:12,959 –> 00:07:17,199
an institutional responsibility demanded of the reigning Ober, probably by

120
00:07:17,240 –> 00:07:20,800
the traditions to protect the throne of Benin Kingdom. Edikan

121
00:07:20,920 –> 00:07:23,040
is a title of a person who act as a

122
00:07:23,040 –> 00:07:25,959
proxy of the Ober of Benin while the reigning Ober

123
00:07:26,199 –> 00:07:29,600
is still alive. He leaves the Ussellu palace and moves

124
00:07:29,680 –> 00:07:32,319
to the main palace of the Benin monarch to become

125
00:07:32,360 –> 00:07:35,519
the new Ober when the reigning Ober has finally joined

126
00:07:35,519 –> 00:07:39,839
his ancestors. The word proxy, according to Cambridge Online Dictionary,

127
00:07:40,279 –> 00:07:43,519
is someone or something that takes the place of another

128
00:07:43,600 –> 00:07:47,600
person or thing, or has the same meaning purpose, et cetera,

129
00:07:47,720 –> 00:07:50,920
as the more it. For the avoidance of doubts, Crown

130
00:07:50,959 –> 00:07:54,560
Prince a handin Eridi hour now Ober euare Io was

131
00:07:54,600 –> 00:07:57,560
sent as Eddikin of Osselu and began his move to

132
00:07:57,600 –> 00:08:01,839
the Ussellu Palace on Saturday March Quwelf twenty sixteen, while

133
00:08:01,920 –> 00:08:05,800
the reigning Ober Obereridi Hour was still alive and for

134
00:08:05,879 –> 00:08:09,680
the record, Obereridi Hour thereafter was announced to have joined

135
00:08:09,680 –> 00:08:14,879
his ancestors on Friday April twenty ninth, twenty sixteen. Also,

136
00:08:15,279 –> 00:08:20,120
Crown Prince Solomon I co o kuober Igbi Nogo Durakanzua III,

137
00:08:20,439 –> 00:08:23,319
who later becomes ober Erdi Hour, was sent as the

138
00:08:23,480 –> 00:08:26,959
Edikin of Ocelu in nineteen seventy eight, and on June eleventh,

139
00:08:27,040 –> 00:08:30,879
nineteen seventy eight, the then reigning Ober of Benin Kingdom,

140
00:08:31,040 –> 00:08:34,600
ober Akanzua II was announced to have joined his ancestors.

141
00:08:34,960 –> 00:08:37,960
The above illustration may have clarified that the act of

142
00:08:37,960 –> 00:08:40,519
a reigning Ober sending someone to a Selu as the

143
00:08:40,679 –> 00:08:44,240
Edikin of Ocelu, is apparently not a power to choose

144
00:08:44,320 –> 00:08:47,159
or decide who to send. Rather, it is a job

145
00:08:47,240 –> 00:08:50,399
function the reigning Ober is expected to perform by thus

146
00:08:50,480 –> 00:08:53,720
sending the one already chosen by God Almighty right from

147
00:08:53,759 –> 00:08:57,320
birth as the Crown Prince Edikan to become the Edikan

148
00:08:57,360 –> 00:09:00,440
of Ocelu and thereafter the person will move to become

149
00:09:00,480 –> 00:09:03,360
the new Ober of Benin when the reigning king becomes

150
00:09:03,360 –> 00:09:07,480
of blessed memory. Peller, the twenty year old reality or

151
00:09:07,559 –> 00:09:11,480
real life interactive content creator, had visited the palace on

152
00:09:11,600 –> 00:09:14,960
March sixth, twenty twenty six, as part of his nationwide

153
00:09:15,000 –> 00:09:18,279
tour and was reportedly welcomed by the Queen, who also

154
00:09:18,360 –> 00:09:22,840
presented him with a gift. However, the Benin Traditional Council

155
00:09:22,960 –> 00:09:26,919
described the visit as a desecration, leading to disciplinary actions

156
00:09:26,960 –> 00:09:29,759
including the suspension of a chief and the detention of

157
00:09:29,840 –> 00:09:33,960
palace staff, while Pella was also summoned. According to the

158
00:09:34,000 –> 00:09:37,679
apparent proxy TikTok account of Queen Noa Magbee, the Queen

159
00:09:37,759 –> 00:09:41,840
obviously stated in proxy, thus, hello everyone, the issues at

160
00:09:41,840 –> 00:09:44,879
handism just because Peller came to the palace for me

161
00:09:45,000 –> 00:09:48,360
gifting him a lot has been happening behind close doors.

162
00:09:48,679 –> 00:09:51,600
The Benin Traditional Council lied that Peller coming to the

163
00:09:51,639 –> 00:09:54,600
palace was unauthorized and I brought him to the palace.

164
00:09:54,960 –> 00:09:57,159
But I hope I will be able to convince you

165
00:09:57,279 –> 00:10:00,320
all that Pella coming to the palace was authorized. Look

166
00:10:00,320 –> 00:10:02,639
at the stamp on this letter shows that it was

167
00:10:02,679 –> 00:10:06,120
approved by Benin Traditional Council, But they’re all lying on

168
00:10:06,159 –> 00:10:08,399
my head. But what I want you to know is

169
00:10:08,440 –> 00:10:10,840
that this isn’t the main problem, because there are other

170
00:10:10,919 –> 00:10:14,559
issues way bigger than what you all thinks. Thanks to

171
00:10:14,639 –> 00:10:17,919
those people who have reached out just to check on

172
00:10:18,200 –> 00:10:21,799
me and to make sure I’m fine. On March sixteenth,

173
00:10:21,919 –> 00:10:24,639
twenty twenty six, in a press release signed and made

174
00:10:24,679 –> 00:10:28,559
available by Frank Hiraboor Irrabor, the Secretary of the Benin

175
00:10:28,639 –> 00:10:33,960
Traditional Council, the BTC said, the Benin Traditional Council BTC

176
00:10:34,440 –> 00:10:37,440
wishes to address the public regarding a serious breach of

177
00:10:37,519 –> 00:10:40,960
protocol and desecration of the sacred precincts of the Palace

178
00:10:41,320 –> 00:10:44,759
which occurred on Friday the sixth of March twenty twenty six.

179
00:10:45,600 –> 00:10:50,120
The Council confirms that an individual, habib Hamsat Adelager, a

180
00:10:50,200 –> 00:10:55,320
social media influencer popularly known as Heller, gained unauthorized access

181
00:10:55,360 –> 00:10:59,080
to the palace premises on the said date. Mister Adelager

182
00:10:59,159 –> 00:11:02,440
and his entourage entered the palace without the requisite permission

183
00:11:02,519 –> 00:11:06,879
from the Council, and their subsequent conduct caused significant embarrassment

184
00:11:06,919 –> 00:11:09,519
and a breach of the peace within the palace grounds.

185
00:11:10,320 –> 00:11:14,360
The Benin Traditional Council views this incident with the utmost gravity.

186
00:11:14,759 –> 00:11:17,559
The palace is not a public thoroughfare or a location

187
00:11:17,759 –> 00:11:21,480
for frivolous content creation. It is the ancient and spiritual

188
00:11:21,519 –> 00:11:24,960
seat of the Ober of Benin, governed by centuries of tradition,

189
00:11:25,320 –> 00:11:30,320
custom and sacred protocols. The Council has conducted a preliminary

190
00:11:30,360 –> 00:11:36,159
investigation into the circumstances that allowed this unauthorized access. Consequently,

191
00:11:36,559 –> 00:11:40,320
stringent disciplinary measures have been taken against palace staff and

192
00:11:40,440 –> 00:11:45,000
chiefs who aided this mischievous act. Specifically, a chief who

193
00:11:45,120 –> 00:11:48,600
was implicated in the incident has been suspended indefinitely from

194
00:11:48,600 –> 00:11:52,559
the palace. A staff member of the Benin Traditional Council,

195
00:11:53,039 –> 00:11:56,960
identified as mister Omuemu, has been detained by the Nigeria

196
00:11:57,039 –> 00:12:00,679
Police Force. He has been charged to call for causing

197
00:12:00,679 –> 00:12:05,039
a breach of the peace and abetting the unauthorised entry. Furthermore,

198
00:12:05,320 –> 00:12:07,960
it is with deep regret that the Council confirms that

199
00:12:08,000 –> 00:12:10,759
a Queen of the Palace, who was unfortunately featured in

200
00:12:10,799 –> 00:12:14,960
the incident, is now facing serious disciplinary proceedings in accordance

201
00:12:15,000 –> 00:12:19,600
with Benin traditions and customs, these proceedings may inadvertently result

202
00:12:19,639 –> 00:12:24,159
in her removal from the palace. Following the incident, the Council,

203
00:12:24,519 –> 00:12:27,879
utilizing the same channels within the Palace that facilitated the

204
00:12:27,919 –> 00:12:32,960
initial entry, extended an invitation to mister habib hamsat Adelaga Pella.

205
00:12:33,720 –> 00:12:36,679
He was requested to appear before a committee of Chief’s

206
00:12:36,759 –> 00:12:40,039
tasks with investigating the matter to provide his own side

207
00:12:40,080 –> 00:12:44,679
of the story. Regrettably, mister Adelager has failed to honor

208
00:12:44,720 –> 00:12:48,720
this invitation. The Council is therefore using this public medium

209
00:12:48,759 –> 00:12:52,440
to demand that mister Adelager present himself immediately to the

210
00:12:52,480 –> 00:12:57,200
relevant authorities within the Council. His unapproved visit has caused

211
00:12:57,279 –> 00:13:01,039
untold distress to so many people, and as he must

212
00:13:01,080 –> 00:13:05,679
tendern unreserved written apology to the Palace for his unauthorized

213
00:13:05,720 –> 00:13:09,840
access and the embarrassment caused. Failure to comply with this

214
00:13:10,000 –> 00:13:12,840
directive will leave the Council with no option but to

215
00:13:12,840 –> 00:13:17,600
pursue legal action. The appropriate law enforcement agencies have been

216
00:13:17,679 –> 00:13:20,320
duly informed of this matter and a standing by to

217
00:13:20,360 –> 00:13:25,200
take necessary action against him. The Benin Traditional Council assures

218
00:13:25,200 –> 00:13:28,080
the public and the entire Benin Nation that it remains

219
00:13:28,120 –> 00:13:31,960
the unwavering custodian of our age old customs and traditions.

220
00:13:32,759 –> 00:13:37,799
While unscrupulous elements may occasionally attempt to undermine our sacred institutions,

221
00:13:38,320 –> 00:13:41,480
banking on the fatherly and forgiving disposition of His Royal

222
00:13:41,559 –> 00:13:48,159
Majesty Homo Nobernedo buku Acpolopolo Oberewarreyl c f R. They

223
00:13:48,200 –> 00:13:51,519
do so at their peril. The Council wishes to state

224
00:13:51,600 –> 00:13:55,759
unequivocally that it possesses the institutional tools to immediately correct

225
00:13:55,759 –> 00:14:00,000
such infractions and prevent any reoccurrence. We thank the public

226
00:14:00,200 –> 00:14:03,240
for their concern and support in preserving the sanctity and

227
00:14:03,279 –> 00:14:07,879
dignity of the Benin throne. On November eleventh, twenty twenty five,

228
00:14:08,399 –> 00:14:11,440

232
00:14:24,120 –> 00:14:27,039
L hoped it would never get like this, especially my

233
00:14:27,240 –> 00:14:32,279
father addressing in house publicly. I have apologized several times before,

234
00:14:32,320 –> 00:14:35,240
but it seems el need to do it again. I

235
00:14:35,279 –> 00:14:38,039

Oko Yu Kua, Prince Edekin of Usselu and mu Ure.

240
00:14:51,960 –> 00:14:56,639
But please Lohoe leave as Eleki for me because my

241
00:14:56,799 –> 00:15:00,799
grandfather gave me that name. You raised me with morals,

242
00:15:01,120 –> 00:15:05,159
values and integrity as your son. Imperatively, one thing you

243
00:15:05,200 –> 00:15:07,320
can always count on is that I will tell you

244
00:15:07,360 –> 00:15:10,000
what others would tell you and speak my opinion on

245
00:15:10,159 –> 00:15:12,759
issues that others might be too worried to touch on.

246
00:15:13,639 –> 00:15:16,840
He’ll use this medium to plead please handle the current

247
00:15:17,000 –> 00:15:21,600
situation on ground with sagacity. Our father is the most fastidious,

248
00:15:22,000 –> 00:15:25,919
painstaking and meticulous individual known, so I have almost faith

249
00:15:25,960 –> 00:15:29,399
in you. I pray for you always, pray for good

250
00:15:29,519 –> 00:15:33,600
health and long life. May God and our ancestors continue

251
00:15:33,639 –> 00:15:37,320
to give you wisdom, guide and protect you always. The

252
00:15:37,399 –> 00:15:41,759
Prince on December thirtieth, twenty twenty five, released another statement

253
00:15:41,879 –> 00:15:45,559
via his verified Instagram account and stated that over the

254
00:15:45,600 –> 00:15:48,240
last few weeks, I have received an alarming amount of

255
00:15:48,279 –> 00:15:52,360
messages about the welfare of my mother. I really appreciate

256
00:15:52,480 –> 00:15:55,480
your concern, but rest assured she is being cared for

257
00:15:56,240 –> 00:15:59,440
before the year ends. I choose to address this simply

258
00:15:59,480 –> 00:16:02,159
because I would and allow false narratives about why my

259
00:16:02,279 –> 00:16:05,320
mother isn’t in the palace. I want to make it

260
00:16:05,480 –> 00:16:09,759
very clear my mother did nothing wrong. Six months ago,

261
00:16:09,840 –> 00:16:13,200
my youngest brother allegedly barged into the palace wanting to

262
00:16:13,240 –> 00:16:16,720
see his father. Our father wasn’t happy with his approach.

263
00:16:17,519 –> 00:16:20,679
As a result, my mother was told to leave the palace.

264
00:16:21,440 –> 00:16:24,600
Our dear father, Domo, I would like to use this

265
00:16:24,720 –> 00:16:27,759
medium to plead on behalf of your senior children. You

266
00:16:27,799 –> 00:16:31,279
wouldn’t see your second son, your third son, and your

267
00:16:31,320 –> 00:16:35,720
second daughter. Please, whatever our father said they did wrong,

268
00:16:36,080 –> 00:16:40,559
please forgive and forget. Time is precious. We want togetherness,

269
00:16:40,879 –> 00:16:45,039
not division. As for me, my own father intentionally chose

270
00:16:45,120 –> 00:16:48,039
to compose a speech and talk about his eldest son

271
00:16:48,159 –> 00:16:51,320
for a whole five minutes to wash me publicly over

272
00:16:51,399 –> 00:16:57,600
material things objects artifacts a museum. Arbuseki, you said, Arbuseki

273
00:16:57,679 –> 00:17:01,639
co opted your eldest son, Domo. Our father omitted to

274
00:17:01,679 –> 00:17:04,039
mention the part where you were aware and gave your

275
00:17:04,039 –> 00:17:07,079
blessing for me to be on the Legacy Restoration Trust.

276
00:17:07,880 –> 00:17:10,279
It was after I got to Germany that my father

277
00:17:10,400 –> 00:17:12,720
then told me on the phone that he had changed

278
00:17:12,759 –> 00:17:16,480
his mind about me being on the board. I remember

279
00:17:16,559 –> 00:17:19,680
being sober, fuddled and shocked. There is no way on

280
00:17:19,720 –> 00:17:22,039
this earth I would ever be a part of something

281
00:17:22,079 –> 00:17:25,279
of this magnitude without getting green light from you, on

282
00:17:25,440 –> 00:17:29,079
God and our ancestors. I tried informing you a few

283
00:17:29,160 –> 00:17:32,799
times before I left to Germany, but as our father recalls,

284
00:17:33,079 –> 00:17:36,279
you chose to put middlemen in between our direct communication,

285
00:17:36,720 –> 00:17:39,920
which meant you never got my message on time. You

286
00:17:40,039 –> 00:17:43,319
didn’t give anyone your direct number, so I couldn’t pick

287
00:17:43,400 –> 00:17:47,279
up the phone to inform you personally beforehand. What really

288
00:17:47,319 –> 00:17:49,960
caused the issue between my father and I was that

289
00:17:50,000 –> 00:17:53,279
while I was in Germany, I overheard my father say

290
00:17:53,359 –> 00:17:56,519
unpleasant things about me to a public figure on the phone.

291
00:17:57,079 –> 00:17:59,880
I got upset and raised my voice to my father,

292
00:18:00,480 –> 00:18:04,079
something I have never done in my entire life. Hence

293
00:18:04,079 –> 00:18:08,759
why I aforementioned I’m only human. Afterwards, I realized the

294
00:18:08,799 –> 00:18:12,799
mistake I made. I pleaded and apologized for four years straight.

295
00:18:13,240 –> 00:18:16,279
Wrote countless from Horsefool letters, But yet you chose not

296
00:18:16,359 –> 00:18:19,519
to forgive and rather keep malice for this long. I

297
00:18:19,640 –> 00:18:22,319
didn’t know you had this kind of mind towards your

298
00:18:22,359 –> 00:18:25,960
own son, your first son. If I may add, why

299
00:18:26,000 –> 00:18:30,279
not just call and beret castigate me privately? After all?

300
00:18:30,640 –> 00:18:34,480
I said I was sorry several times. After all, no

301
00:18:34,480 –> 00:18:37,400
one knew about this but you and I. It was

302
00:18:37,440 –> 00:18:41,200
a father and son issue, that was it? Something private,

303
00:18:41,559 –> 00:18:45,720
sensitive with infinitesimal You’ve always taught us not to err

304
00:18:45,759 –> 00:18:48,799
our dirty laundry in public, but the teaching went out

305
00:18:48,839 –> 00:18:52,240
the window that day in Government House. You chose to

306
00:18:52,279 –> 00:18:55,480
bring our private business to the public domain, which was

307
00:18:55,519 –> 00:18:59,440
so sad and heartbreaking to watch. My senior sister being

308
00:18:59,480 –> 00:19:03,000
on stage with you. Made me question her intentions towards me,

309
00:19:03,400 –> 00:19:06,960
and that’s a horrible feeling. If our father feels there

310
00:19:07,039 –> 00:19:09,799
was nothing wrong with what was said that day, then

311
00:19:09,839 –> 00:19:13,720
who am I to say or think otherwise? Domo, I’ll

312
00:19:13,720 –> 00:19:16,680
deal with however you decide to treat me, But please

313
00:19:16,720 –> 00:19:21,119
don’t mistreat our mother. I worry about her sometimes. She’s

314
00:19:21,160 –> 00:19:23,960
not as young as she used to be. My mother

315
00:19:24,079 –> 00:19:27,480
has done nothing wrong. She has stood by you for years,

316
00:19:27,920 –> 00:19:31,680
raised your children with you, for years. She’s mother to all,

317
00:19:32,279 –> 00:19:35,240
just as you are father and king to all. Please,

318
00:19:35,680 –> 00:19:38,880
she doesn’t deserve this treatment. The year is coming to

319
00:19:38,960 –> 00:19:42,200
an end. I’m on my knees. Let our mother back

320
00:19:42,240 –> 00:19:45,920
into her home. To our leaders. As we enter twenty

321
00:19:45,960 –> 00:19:51,480
twenty six I pray for unity, togetherness, progress, development and peace.

322
00:19:52,279 –> 00:19:54,920
Positive projection of Edo should be priority.

323
00:19:55,240 –> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 2: Hour longer I will dead. Visit also princise.

324
00:20:00,039 –> 00:20:06,759

00:20:06,960 –> 00:20:09,799
NAS plans for this opening.

326
00:20:16,519 –> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 2: When when I first heard this name? Because more now

327
00:20:30,200 –> 00:20:37,200
where a morea more he not born?

328
00:20:39,160 –> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 3: Yere ye again, your excellency, distinguished ladies and gentlemen, We

329
00:20:50,359 –> 00:20:54,599
are therefore constrained to throw light on the lingling controversy

330
00:20:54,880 –> 00:21:00,759
surrounding the museum called Museum of West African at with

331
00:21:01,200 –> 00:21:07,880
More wish More was originally conceived as Benurial Museum.

332
00:21:08,119 –> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 2: Did you all know that.

333
00:21:13,039 –> 00:21:21,279
Speaker 3: Originally before my coronation in twenty sixteen, my grandfather.

334
00:21:22,359 –> 00:21:26,799
Speaker 2: Of our Kingsworld’s second, my father.

335
00:21:27,680 –> 00:21:31,640
Speaker 3: By Radiowa and I, by the grace of God now

336
00:21:32,240 –> 00:21:36,079
or by word the second, have been known to be

337
00:21:36,160 –> 00:21:39,720
conversing for the return of our limited artifacts by the

338
00:21:39,720 –> 00:21:47,839
British in eighteen ninety seven, somewhere returned by the British

339
00:21:47,839 –> 00:21:52,160
government during my grandfather’s reign, and my grandfather sang a

340
00:21:52,279 –> 00:21:57,559
song and danced to his in appreciation and happiness. So

341
00:21:57,680 –> 00:22:01,400
wish in honor of my grandpa, also now doing the

342
00:22:01,400 –> 00:22:10,759
same song and dance whenever Natified is returned, say.

343
00:22:15,359 –> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 2: What words.

344
00:22:31,720 –> 00:22:35,240

governor’s comedy Ushumoli’s administration, who joined the palace to receive

350
00:23:08,720 –> 00:23:13,960
the artifacts. As a diplomat, I carried on the struggle

351
00:23:14,039 –> 00:23:19,400
of my father’s for the return of the artifacts to

352
00:23:19,480 –> 00:23:22,559
the palace to fire corners.

353
00:23:22,039 –> 00:23:23,279
Speaker 2: Of the globe.

354
00:23:23,759 –> 00:23:27,039
Speaker 3: Because I was fortunate to serve my country in several countries.

355
00:23:29,200 –> 00:23:33,160
I presented my letters of predience to the King of Sweden,

356

Speaker 3: And Albanian Republic of Albenian. I invited you know Baskily

361
00:24:00,240 –> 00:24:06,400
after he was sworn in in twenty seventeen. I intimated

362
00:24:06,480 –> 00:24:09,480
him of how much my father and I had been

363
00:24:10,000 –> 00:24:15,319
fighting for the return of the stolen artifacts and solicited

364
00:24:15,359 –> 00:24:18,920
for his collaboration. Being the new governor of the state

365
00:24:19,039 –> 00:24:22,759
and I the knew over on the throne.

366
00:24:23,160 –> 00:24:25,839
Speaker 2: He probably agreed to support this effort.

367
00:24:26,839 –> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 3: On my second coronation and Inverstry, he was called to

368
00:24:30,480 –> 00:24:33,960
make some remarks and surprised everyone when he informed us

369
00:24:34,039 –> 00:24:36,640
that he had been meeting with the Beneath the Allow group,

370
00:24:37,359 –> 00:24:42,400
some museums and international donors who were already cooperating with

371
00:24:42,519 –> 00:24:49,160
him for the setting up of the Beniroa Museum, and

372
00:24:49,200 –> 00:24:51,440
that he has invited them to be name for the

373
00:24:51,480 –> 00:24:57,240
next meeting. He then said he couldn’t see any better

374
00:24:57,319 –> 00:25:00,680
coronation and invastary gift hmm.

375
00:25:02,400 –> 00:25:03,519
Speaker 2: He could give to me than that.

376
00:25:07,400 –> 00:25:10,799
Speaker 3: Everyone applauded him, because.

377
00:25:10,599 –> 00:25:12,559
Speaker 2: Somehow I was not so excited.

378
00:25:13,680 –> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 3: I had a bad feeling about it. Instead, I mean

379
00:25:17,759 –> 00:25:19,319
to be jumping for joy.

380
00:25:20,039 –> 00:25:21,079
Speaker 2: I had a bad.

381
00:25:20,880 –> 00:25:24,599
Speaker 3: Feeling about it, as if something was wrong or going

382
00:25:24,599 –> 00:25:29,960
to go wrong. I’m sure my ancestors were prompting me

383
00:25:32,279 –> 00:25:43,279
not to believe the story. Don’t then dear was silence.

384
00:25:45,480 –> 00:25:54,799
After that silence from government Bassaitly, COVID nineteen came.

385
00:25:54,599 –> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 2: In and complicated issues.

386
00:25:56,799 –> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 3: The only period of COVID nineteen I’ve believe the evil

387
00:26:02,480 –> 00:26:07,720
the plan, the bad plan, evil plan was also being perfected.

388
00:26:09,279 –> 00:26:11,319
As that was the period the no found out that

389
00:26:11,440 –> 00:26:13,799
a lot of money is coming coming with the artifacts

390
00:26:14,079 –> 00:26:17,599
to the palace. I decided, and they decided to divert,

391
00:26:20,000 –> 00:26:27,160
to divert into their own pockets. Suddenly I saw that

392
00:26:27,200 –> 00:26:30,720
they co opted my eldest son.

393
00:26:32,480 –> 00:26:34,319
Speaker 2: Into their conspiracy.

394
00:26:34,440 –> 00:26:39,519
Speaker 3: Because they felt they would see him as the companies

395
00:26:39,559 –> 00:26:39,960
of Benini.

396
00:26:40,039 –> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 2: They seem as the companies of Benin.

397
00:26:42,799 –> 00:26:51,640
Speaker 3: That would prove that they’re collaborating with the palace, and

398
00:26:51,759 –> 00:26:55,960
if they dragged him along with them, would have succeeded.

399
00:26:56,160 –> 00:26:58,759
They would have succeeded in convincing in terms of doughnuts,

400
00:26:59,160 –> 00:27:02,440
particularly many.

401
00:27:01,759 –> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 2: That there are collaboraity with the palace.

402
00:27:08,160 –> 00:27:13,920
Speaker 3: Now their son said that they constituted, they constituted the

403
00:27:14,039 –> 00:27:19,160
legacy restoration trusts and they have given him a broad seat.

404
00:27:21,079 –> 00:27:23,359
I didn’t send him there.

405
00:27:24,640 –> 00:27:28,000
Speaker 2: He looked excited, of course, our child.

406
00:27:30,079 –> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 3: He didn’t understand the implications of what he was getting

407
00:27:32,720 –> 00:27:34,480
himself into, because he.

408
00:27:34,440 –> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 2: Didn’t remember or didn’t care to remember.

409
00:27:37,519 –> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 3: That I’ve been teaching what I’ve been teaching him to

410
00:27:41,279 –> 00:27:49,400
the bad people, For I wrote of doubt, the Germans,

411
00:27:50,599 –> 00:27:56,039
the German government at town, and others I means, and

412
00:27:56,119 –> 00:28:00,519
others who did not even understand our traditions and did

413
00:28:00,519 –> 00:28:03,000
not care to come to the source to find out

414
00:28:03,559 –> 00:28:06,480
for reasons best known to them, perhaps because they were

415
00:28:06,519 –> 00:28:08,079
also having the interests.

416
00:28:07,720 –> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 2: Of their own in the artifacts.

417
00:28:11,720 –> 00:28:16,200
Speaker 3: HM they would have found out that the edens of

418
00:28:16,200 –> 00:28:19,119
the other beneath is not automatically the crown Prince of Benin,

419
00:28:19,720 –> 00:28:23,359
even though our system of secession is based on the

420
00:28:23,359 –> 00:28:31,960
principle of primogenital Auntie his father urine over pronounced him

421
00:28:32,039 –> 00:28:38,279
so and direct him to Selu to preside over Husselhu

422
00:28:38,480 –> 00:28:42,079
as the dark of Usilu or until then he is

423
00:28:42,119 –> 00:28:44,480
regarded as just the first.

424
00:28:44,200 –> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 2: Prince or senior prince in Beni. They would say, oh, oh,

425
00:28:47,240 –> 00:28:56,079
or what so were we all? And my father I was.

426
00:28:56,240 –> 00:28:58,559
Speaker 3: I was also involved in a ceremony in the palace

427
00:28:59,160 –> 00:29:04,119
that from Manley sent me to Selu with the Comrado

428
00:29:04,119 –> 00:29:04,799
Smoli was.

429
00:29:04,799 –> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 2: There at the time was the governor, and we.

430
00:29:08,240 –> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 3: Lost a lot of crowd worked checked as we have

431
00:29:12,319 –> 00:29:14,599
to do it in language traditions.

432
00:29:14,960 –> 00:29:20,599
Speaker 2: Checked all the way to Selu. Two presidents before.

433
00:29:21,559 –> 00:29:26,799
Speaker 3: Technically officially I became prian prince, became the the care

434
00:29:26,880 –> 00:29:31,079
for Selou. Anything short of that his widow dressing and

435
00:29:31,200 –> 00:29:35,039
cosmetic They decided to drag this my elders so that

436
00:29:35,119 –> 00:29:41,400
I loved himTo his into a conspiracy against his own heritage.

437
00:29:40,759 –> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 2: And he was thanking there for it.

438
00:29:43,079 –> 00:29:46,039
Speaker 3: He also let himself be dragged into the conspiracy for

439
00:29:46,079 –> 00:29:48,079
over your reasons, because in the future, listen to the

440
00:29:48,079 –> 00:29:51,599
council of his father, the king that thought that that

441
00:29:51,599 –> 00:29:55,200
that thought has been the naturally him since birth.

442
00:30:01,839 –> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: But I.

443
00:30:05,839 –> 00:30:06,279
Speaker 2: Rather know.

444
00:30:12,559 –> 00:30:20,759
Speaker 3: Your say, mister Governor. Two days ago my people protested

445
00:30:20,880 –> 00:30:23,440
against the purported opening of the.

446
00:30:23,400 –> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 2: So called moir.

447
00:30:28,240 –> 00:30:30,359
Speaker 3: It will be recorded that during the time of hour

448
00:30:30,480 –> 00:30:33,359
of your predecessor in office, I suggested to him that

449
00:30:33,400 –> 00:30:38,119
the Addostate government should support the other being in the

450
00:30:38,160 –> 00:30:41,000
pursuit of the return of the artifacts and the building

451
00:30:41,000 –> 00:30:43,119
of the Beni Royal Museum.

452
00:30:43,599 –> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 2: This was duly agreed to by the s y s.

453
00:30:47,319 –> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 3: While Governor God doing overasity in conjunction with the National

454
00:30:53,720 –> 00:30:59,839
Commission for Museums and Monuments, I gave several referral letters

455
00:31:00,279 –> 00:31:03,839
to the then DG Director General bass T.

456
00:31:04,039 –> 00:31:06,039
Speaker 2: Jerney for who.

457
00:31:06,039 –> 00:31:08,839
Speaker 3: For him to be able to negotiate with different museums

458
00:31:08,839 –> 00:31:13,839
in Europe and America. Surprisingly, I was no longer putting

459
00:31:13,839 –> 00:31:18,119
the picture of the pursuit of this artifas and the

460
00:31:18,200 –> 00:31:20,599
support for the building for the for the building of

461
00:31:20,640 –> 00:31:26,640
the Beninua Museum. Several agreements were signed by the then

462
00:31:27,640 –> 00:31:30,319
Director General of the n c M on behalf of

463
00:31:30,359 –> 00:31:33,599
the other beginning which I never saw up to now.

464
00:31:36,200 –> 00:31:41,920
The Johanney adverse and Godbasski conspired against the Palace of

465
00:31:41,960 –> 00:31:45,160
the Other Bellion and started building what they called a

466
00:31:45,319 –> 00:31:48,720
dome Museum of West Africa as a mower.

467
00:31:50,799 –> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 2: I wasn’t.

468
00:31:51,240 –> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 3: I was never putting the picture anymore, h M. It

469
00:31:59,000 –> 00:32:02,359
was very sad to be it was later It was

470
00:32:02,440 –> 00:32:08,559
later made known that the finance, the finance for the

471
00:32:08,720 –> 00:32:13,680
moah which they were building was actually.

472
00:32:13,319 –> 00:32:16,759
Speaker 2: Got gotten from foreign donors.

473
00:32:16,680 –> 00:32:20,079
Speaker 3: Who were made to believe that the beginning of artifacts

474
00:32:20,440 –> 00:32:22,480
that would be returned would be housed in the Beni

475
00:32:22,559 –> 00:32:31,319
Royal Museum. The structure that is standing there was actually

476
00:32:31,359 –> 00:32:35,839
supported by foreign donors and the goodwill of the above

477
00:32:35,920 –> 00:32:43,119
bening to build a royal museum, the Billi Royal Museum.

478
00:32:43,160 –> 00:32:45,319
The local MOA is not the state government.

479
00:32:45,880 –> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 2: It’s not the state government project.

480
00:32:48,160 –> 00:32:50,359
Speaker 3: It is a project that is meant to house Benea

481
00:32:50,440 –> 00:32:53,720
bronzes in the in the museum known as the Bini

482
00:32:53,839 –> 00:32:58,640
Royal Museum. I have to keep on re emphasizing this.

483
00:33:00,240 –> 00:33:04,400
I am therefore in support of my people who came out,

484
00:33:05,279 –> 00:33:07,960
who came out a few days ago to protest against

485
00:33:08,000 –> 00:33:16,480
more opening of any sort. I therefore suggest, I therefore

486
00:33:16,599 –> 00:33:21,240
urge the state government to ensure that the mower structure

487
00:33:21,720 –> 00:33:25,480
which is under probe by the Adosted House of Assembly,

488
00:33:25,640 –> 00:33:27,559
is fully investigated.

489
00:33:27,359 –> 00:33:28,400
Speaker 2: And the source of finance.

490
00:33:28,480 –> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 3: And know that she’ve made known, your excellency for the

491
00:33:33,279 –> 00:33:37,160
