Former Minister of Aviation, Femi
Fani-Kayode, has lashed out at a first class Yoruba traditional ruler in Osun
State, the Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrasheed Adewale Akanbi, who has dropped
his traditional dresses and adopted full regalia of an Emir.
Fani-Kayode labelled it as, “an
unfolding identity crisis” and blamed it on President Muhammadu Buhari.
He wrote on Twitter: “It appears
that we have an unfolding identity crisis in some parts of Yorubaland. There is
a traditional ruler in Osun state who now insists on calling himself an Emir
and who dresses like one.
“We were never conquered by the
Fulani but look at what Buhari has done to us now!”
Oba Akanbi has also banished
palace idols and relocated the popular one that has been in the place to
another shrine in the town.
The traditional ruler said Iwo
was the home of Islamic scholars and that he could be regarded as an emir.
