Yes usually you should if you’re going to be working with him or need his assistance. Being that Lala is petitioning on your behalf and has a personal relationship with the lwas herself, is better chance for permission granted on our behalves but if you do the rite without going to Legba and see no signs of LWA granting ur petition, then going to legba for permission should be done.
From what I’ve read on other post yes you would have to ask for his permission first before going to others. Because he is the one who opens the doors to get the other LWA
Yes u do
