In the realm of African royalty, where age-old traditions and regal customs hold steadfast, there once lived a king who defied expectations and challenged the norms. This captivating tale takes us to a momentous encounter between an African king, whose name echoed with the weight of his ancestral legacy, and Queen Elizabeth II, the revered monarch of the United Kingdom. It was a meeting that would forever be etched in history, for this African king, undeterred by conventional protocol, dared to stand firm, refusing to bow in deference to her majesty. Embarking on a journey of cultural independence and unyielding pride, this remarkable king forged an indomitable path, leaving an indelible mark on the pages of time. This is the story of Attah Ameh Oboni – the Nigerian King who Chose Suicide Instead of Bowing to the Queen of England

In the picturesque village of Ugwolawo, nestled near the verdant lands of Kogi State, Nigeria, a destined soul took its first breath in the year 1911. This blessed child, King Attah Ameh Oboni, would emerge as a beacon of hope and a symbol of leadership for his people, the Igala. From an early age, it was evident that he possessed the rare qualities of wisdom, charisma, and a deep connection to his ancestral roots.

As the seasons turned and the years unfurled their tapestry, the young Attah Ameh Oboni gradually emerged as the heir apparent to the illustrious Ata throne. The weight of responsibility settled upon his shoulders, but he bore it with grace, dedicating himself to the pursuit of knowledge and understanding. Guided by the wisdom passed down through generations, he honed his intellect, imbibing the teachings of his forefathers, and imprinted their profound wisdom upon his very being.

Under King Attah Ameh Oboni's reign, the Igala kingdom experienced a period of remarkable progress and prosperity. Fueled by his visionary leadership, the land witnessed an unprecedented economic boom, breathing life into its markets and instilling a renewed sense of hope within the hearts of its inhabitants. The king's unwavering dedication to his people manifested through various initiatives, one of which was the expansion of native schools. Recognizing the importance of education in empowering future generations, he invested in the growth and development of educational institutions, nurturing young minds and opening doors to a brighter future.

Why would a King of his own land bow down to another Queen from a different country this is absurd 😆

[auroraseyets]

It's very strange that it would be deemed "conventional" for a king to bow to a queen of a foreign land. Weird.

[iainbanks]

What a fantastic King, it's a shame other leaders are not like that.

Growing up, even though there had been other Attah after him, his name was the most mentioned in our Igala kingdom, he was indeed reverend. Rest well with the ancestors Attah Ameh Oboni.

[kimberlyowens]

How does one monarch have to bow to another monarch in your own country.

[chyna-kareem]

This man was a mighty king who stood his ground

[O-m_o]

As an African. I have everything against Elizabeth and her lineage. Africa is still suffering from British cruelty

[luzsanabria]

The only one we should bow down to is our Lord and Savior and no one else.

[ajrod]

Nothing against Elizabeth...but, a monarch should NOT be expected to bow to another monarch...and it should not be such a shock.

Who threatened to dethrone him if he didn’t remove his cap for Elizabeth? That’s not fair. She’s just a human and no human deserves to be bowed to. Only God deserves that.

[melvinjones]

Bow only to God, not corrupt mortals!

[lanabethmorrison]

[garylsimmons]

All those posts with people condemning others for not being saddened by their queens passing... the audacity.

[alaromukhtar]

A true King, as a Nigerian and Yoruba, I’m proud of King Attah Ameh Oboni and other monarchs who stood their grounds against tyrants

[litebrite]

This King refused to bow to a non-human entity and I applaud him for it. It wasn't about 'bowing to the Queen', it was about agreeing to capitulate to whatever 'terms' they had presented him with which were no doubt horrendous at best.

[kizzyunitytv]

His a real king he understand what it means to be a king.
