Ooni Disowns Statement Credited To The Palace And Restates Respect For Oba Of Lagos

Ooni of Ife, His Imperial Majesty, Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi (Ojaja 11) on Friday disowned a remark credited to one Tunde Awoyemi who claimed to be the palace Director of tourism that the palace of Ooni would invoke the wrath of ancestors on Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu if he fails to tender apology for snubbing Arole of Oduduwa at a public function recently.




Ooni Ogunwusi insisted he would continue to hold Oba of Lagos in high esteem and continually give him respect not only as one of the foremost traditional rulers, but also as an elderly Oba.


In a statement issued by Oba Ogunwusi's director of media and public affairs, Comrade Moses Olafare, "the palace of Ooni is using this medium to dissociate Ooni of Ife from the statement credited to Mr Tunde Awoyemi and we have said it repeatedly that we have no official reaction to the issue of Oba Akiolu".


"Kabiyesi Ogunwusi is committed to his peace and unity agenda, which he has embarked on since he ascended the throne of his forefathers. We refrain from reacting officially, with a view to avoiding fanning any ember of discord as Oba Akiolu remains​ respected monarch and the Ooni had established a very robust and healthy relationship with him before his installation as Ooni of Ife".


"While Ooni would continue to sustain the relationship with Oba Akiolu, we want to state categorically that the remark credited to Tunde Awoyemi was not authorised by Ooni and should be disregarded by all Nigerians both at home and in diaspora".



*Awwww 💘💘💘 Ooni is so mature,I hope the Oba will learn something from this....

    I have never been that pissed in my entire life, watching how he snubbed. He still came up with a stupid lie saying that's how they greet in Lagos. Since when?


    Always in the news for the wrong reasons.


    Thank God the Ooni is not a petty King.... How can one not be able to hide their bile? It must be in you then, like peak.

  4. Can't blame akiolu, that is how one behave wen you are given a power you never deserved or dream of. Same way he said all igbos against ambode will die. Is only Lagos you will see a non cultured king cos some Lagos people are not cultured.

  6. Can these monarchs just rule quietly in their palaces and stay off the media? They are gradually turning into entertainers.
