Kingdom Of Bonny
The Kingdom of Bonny, otherwise known as Grand Bonny, is a traditional state based on the town of Bonny in Rivers State, Nigeria. In the pre-colonial period, it was an important slave trading port, later trading palm oil products. During the 19th century the British became increasingly involved in the internal affairs of the kingdom, in 1886 assuming control under a protectorate treaty. Today the King of Bonny has a largely ceremonial role.

Fubara Manilla Pepple
Fubara Manilla Pepple, otherwise known as Fubara I Agbaa Pepple II, was a Nigerian monarch. He was the ruler of the Kingdom of Bonny from 1754 to 1792. Both his lineal and adoptive descendants - who are all collectively known today as the House of Fubara Manilla Pepple - serve by tradition as one of Bonny's most powerful chieftaincy families. Succession The second son of King Perekule I Pepple, Fubara wasn't initially expected to succeed him as ruler. His elder brother, Ibulu Best Pepple, was their father's acknowledged heir, but in the lead up to his death he was found to be somewhat weak-willed. As a result, upon Perekule's death, Ibulu was sidelined by the elders and Fubara was called upon to take up the kingship thereafter. He was crowned in 1754. Reign In emulation of what was customary amongst the lower classes, Fubara's own position as a chief prior to his accession was only recognized because of his prior rule of the Fubara Manilla Pepples - a clan corporation that wa ...
