The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, speaking through the Director, Media and Public Affairs, Ooni’s Palace, Moses Olafare, has said he is not ready to make any official statement over what happened on Tuesday between him and Oba of Lagos, Oba Akiolu.
Oba
Akiolu had, at a social function, waved his hand in a somewhat
dismissive manner, after the Ooni approached him for a handshake.
“Nobody
should castigate anybody for doing what he did because of the position
he holds and because of his age… Ooni would not stop to accord his
colleagues and every category of people the respect they deserve. The
Ooni of Ife is not ready to make any official statement over what
happened between him and the Oba of Lagos. He still holds Oba Akiolu in
high esteem and what happened yesterday will not stop the Ooni from
holding him in high esteem,” Olafare told PUNCH.
