The correct answer is B. Ilari

Roles of the Ilari

1. Royal Messengers – They delivered the Oba’s commands to different regions.


2. Tax Collectors – They helped in revenue collection for the palace.


3. Palace Administrators – Some Ilari managed palace affairs and ceremonies.


4. Supervisors of Tribute – They ensured that tributes from vassal states were properly accounted for.


5. Executioners & Law Enforcers – Some Ilari carried out punishments on behalf of the king.

The iwarefa is not a single officer
they were the six most senior members of the ogboni society
iwa=elders
refa= six
