Ooni: I Do Not Have Issues With Oba Akiolu
The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has again dismissed the alleged faceoff between him and the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu.
Oba Ogunwusi, who spoke in Port Harcourt, said he had no problem with Oba Akiolu, stressing that they are brothers and have been close for many years.
The monarch, who was accompanied to the state by his wife and other palace guards, said: “We did not have a problem. It is being overblown by the media. Like I said, I respect him. I had a relationship with him when I was a prince and when I was an entrepreneur in Lagos. I will continue to respect him.
“It is very unlikely that you will see a successful Nigerian that has not passed through Lagos. So, give honour to whom honour is due.”
On the activities of herdsmen, the Ooni said: “It has to be approached with a lot of caution. You can see that meat is a necessity for us; everybody eats meat because of the protein and fibre content in it.
“This is a very sensitive thing about our nation and as a result of this, we should apply a lot of caution. If it was properly coordinated across board, we will get the best out of it. The herdsmen are rearing their cows for human beings.”
