How The Oba Of Benin Rules

How The Oba Of Benin Rules

At the village level, the head of government is the Odionwere. He rules the village with the help of all elders in the village. Higher up the rulership, is the Enogie (Duke) or Enigi (Dukes).

An Enogie is responsible for a number of villages. These Enigie are mostly blood brothers of the Oba of the Benin Kingdom.
