Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has felicitated with Christians across the globe in celebration of 2018 Christmas.
He described Christianity as one of the primary vehicles of socialization/modernization in the world, calling on religious leaders to instrument the asset to improve human race.
Oluwo equally tasked Nigerians to be sincere with Christmas celebration by emulating the spirit of love and unity as practiced by Jesus.
Oluwo stated a religious but UNGODLY nation will swim in the pool of stagnation, imploring Nigerians to imbibe sportsmanship while relating with fellow.
He said most Nigerians are not sincere with Christmas celebration, owing to daily human evil acts most especially ritual killings ravaging the nation.
Oluwo condemned heinous acts attributed to religious leaders and faithfuls, calling on federal government legislation to curb social vices such as killing human for sacrifice, raping, secret secret societies and other inhuman behaviours.
A statement released and made available to journalists by his press Secretary, Alli Ibraheem, notes ” I felicitate with the multitude most especially Christians on the occasion of 2018 Christmas. It is to the glory of God to survive every threats to existence. As Christians, we should not only celebrate but also sincere by emulating the teachings of whom we celebrate”
Every religion has its rules. The conducts are widely stipulated and well respected. As Yorubas, our religion is head (Ori). It never harbours offering human for sacrifice. The rate of daily ritual killings in Nigeria call for urgent national legislation. Secret societies should be outlawed as done in Great Britain. Nigerians, most especially students are daily victims in the hands of ritualists. They are deadlier than Book Haram”
“We only celebrate Prophets without recourse to lessons from them. No religion will tell you to kill your fellow. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus, I appeal for a change of heart. If ritual killings must stop, we must respect the sanctity of our belief in God through the Prophets”
“Today, the reported cases of killing is decimating our population. The royal fathers are watching as their children are daily victims of ritualists. Our silence as monarchs is demonstration of negligence. If government refuse to rise to rescue our children, we owe an urgent obligation of traditional legislation to curb the fatal menace”
“Of what essence and justification is celebration of prophet without emulation of his deeds? I’m appealing to Nigerians to safe Nigeria. We are the enemies of ourselves. The recently added victims are falling to the hands of yahoo plus. It is a great shock of this century. When elders are in the market, child’s head must not drope”
