Ooni’s Palace Replies Oba of Lagos.

The royal residence of the Ooni of Ife, Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has remarked on the shameful treatment by the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, at an open capacity in Lagos on Tuesday.

A video of the occurrence which went virile via web-based networking media demonstrated the Oba of Lagos ruler declining to shake hands with the Ooni of Ile-Ife

Head of Palace Directorate of Tourism, Awoyemi Tunde, said the Ooni of Ife was not losing rest over the issue.


"It is not a slap on the Ooni of Ife yet rather a slap on the Oba of Lagos," he said. "The stool of Oba of Lagos was established by Olofin Ogunfunminire and the Ooni of Ife is the Oba of Yoruba land.

"The Oba of Lagos needs to deal with the way that Ooni is the regal father of Yoruba land, it is essential that all people meet up to join Yoruba arrive however truly the issue at the occasion is exceptionally condemnable".

Mr. Tunde likewise said that the Oba of Lagos took a chance with the fury of the 'Alale'(Ancestors), thus of his lack of respect for the predominant ruler.

"God gave Ooni of Ife Oba Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, the command to join the Yoruba land and nothing will prevent him from doing that," he included.

As indicated by Mr. Tunde, responses from various Yoruba people group would keep on pouring into impugn the activity of the Lagos ruler.

"On the off chance that we don't get a conciliatory sentiment particularly with the picture of Ile-Ife, we will approach the precursors on the issue," he said.
