The Dein who was
crowned King when he was just two and a half years old in 1979 following the
death of his father, had all his education abroad. He returned to Nigeria in
2001 after completing all his studies to assume the throne as king and has been
ruling his kingdom since without a Queen.
This seems to be the
reverse of the Hollywood movie, “Coming To America”; but in this case, it is “Coming
to Africa”! The king seem to have found love while he was abroad and decided to
settle down with the woman he loves, black or white.
A highly respected
palace Chief, Alika (surname withheld) told Leadership newspapers that the
ruling palace council had insisted that he gets married to a Nigerian woman
from Agbor kingdom according to the tradition. But it appears that the king
called their bluff and married the white woman, a decision considered to be a
taboo.
Which kind taboo is that? Abeg, customs and culture are bound to change with realities on ground. This people should leave the king alone. If they wanted him to marry an Agbor girl, they should have trained an Agbor along side him abroad.
ReplyDeleteThis is not a taboo. Anyway Agbor people will resolve this one. See price of Samsung Galaxy s5
