A new video that has got the internet buzzing shows the somewhat controversial monarch of Lagos Oba Rilwan Akiolu snubbing and insulting his Ife counterpart Ooni of Ife Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi publicly at an event.
WATCH VIDEO BELOW...
The rest as on for the beef or the duration of the beef is not known but the older king openly displayed his dislike or anger to the chagrin of many who saw the move.
The event which had some top dignitaries including some other monarchs had the two kings in attendance.
Oba Akiolu was already seated when the Ooni arrived with his entourage, Ooni quickly greeted the other monarch sitting beside Akiolu who had looked away on seeing the young but powerful monarch.
After paying obeisance to the first king, Ooni of Ife turned to Oba Akiolu for greetings only for the older king to shin him with his hands.

ReplyDeleteVery funny!!! Akiolu na mopo before so you can expect such from him.
ReplyDeleteWe from the Source will never forget this stupidity.
Ask any Eko indigene, and they'll tell you he's the biggest disgrace ever brought upon us.
ReplyDeleteWhat he fails to remember is that no matter how old he is, the Ooni is a much more bigger monarch than he is, according to Yoruba custom.
Does the Oba of Lagos even have any place in the hierarchy of kings in the Yorubaland? He may continue beefing for all I care, he is nobody in the scheme of kings in this part of the world. He has, by this latest act, clearly shown that he lacks the character and decorum expected of a king in Yorubaland. Shame on you, Rilwan Akiolu! Once a policeman is always a policeman. You are not a king but a Mopol.
ReplyDeleteLong live Arole Oduduwa!
Long live Ooni of Ife!
Long live the Yoruba race.
I dnt knw why Ooni is disturbing himself,he shud just ignore him.

ReplyDeleteThis is a show of shame by the so called Oba of Lagos...shame
ReplyDeletethis is disrespectful am not a yoruba man but oba of lagos ought to of stood up immediately ooni entered, even that man that greeted ooni sitting down not acceptable. shame on oba of lagos
ReplyDeleteThis exhibit of shame and disgrace melted at the young and amiable OOni of Ife should not be brushed aside! Elders in Yoruba land should quickly take control of the situation and bring about the desired unity that has eluded the Yoruba race for long. I would suggest such names as Chief Obasanjo, Asiwaju Tinubu, and other well meaning Yoruba to wade into the unfortunate incidence. The Oba of Lagos should have learnt to comport himself by not allowing personality to wade into his personal acrimony with the OOni. The Ooni, is much younger in age than the Oba of Lagos, but when tradition is to be respected, Ooni is much more exalted than the Oba of Lagos. Let there be peace and tranquility in Yoruba land and Nigeria as a whole.
