Egua-Iyoba Palace Of the Queen Mother.
Egua-Iyoba(Iyoba Palace), is the official residence of the reigning Oba's Mother. As it is customary in Benin kingdom, reigning monarch normally confers the Iyoba title on his mother. When this title is confirmed by the oba, the Iyoba moves to her residence at lower Uselu where Eguae-lyoba is established. Oba Esigie started this tradition probably to forestall the conflict that would have arisen between his mother and himself over the exercise of political power.
This is a very safe location.
