The Vice-President (VP) of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, on Monday identified honesty, integrity, and hard work as integral attributes of the Yoruba race. Osinbajo said this in Ile-Ife during the coronation of the new Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi, as the 51st Ooni of Ife.
He described events, such as the coronation, as rare and very historic in all ramifications, especially to the people of Ile-Ife and the entire Yoruba race. The VP also used the occasion to remind the new Ooni of the great responsibility before him.
“The stool of Ooni is revered and deeply important to the Yoruba race and the Ooni remains the father to all. “And as a father to all, you have the primary responsibility of carrying the responsibility of the people. “We are indeed grateful to God for affording us the opportunity to celebrate with pump and pageantry,” he said.

Agreed and true of any tribe
ReplyDeleteYoruba race? Maybe he meant Yoruba Nation. But is Oshinbajo not a liar? Didn't Oshinbajo say that Buhari's daughter was married to a Christian man from Anambra State? That's dishonesty and fraud.
