Oba Akiolu who first stated this in April while making his controversial speech to Igbo leaders, said he still maintains his position that Mr Agbaje will not be governor of the state. Oba Akiolu said this while speaking at the public policy lecture organized by the Institute of Directors, IoD and launch of the book "The Example: The Era of Babatunde Raji Fashola as Governor of Lagos State,’ in Lagos yesterday May 6th. Read what the Oba said after the cut...
"On May 14, 2014 when I first told all residents of Lagos that the next governor of the state will be Ambode, many didn’t believe me. I knew all the waters that have passed under the bridge, including my own blood relations, who without consulting me went with others to say that Bola Tinubu, Fashola and Oba Akiolu have pocketed Lagos, saying that this time, they will not allow that. And I told them that Jimi (Agbaje) will never be the governor. I still maintain it. There is no going back. I have no doubt in my mind, with the cooperation and prayers of everyone, Ambode will perform very well. I told many people that Bola Tinubu planted the seed, Fashola came and watered the seed and it started germinating in geometrical progressions. We have just started" he said (Source: Vanguard)Photo above: Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola, SAN (left), Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu (middle) and the Ojora of Ijora Kingdom, Oba Fatai Aromire (right) during the Institute of Directors Nigeria Public Policy Lecture at the Shell Hall, Muson Centre, Onikan, Lagos Island, on Wednesday, May 6, 2015.

ReplyDeleteHe speaks like a l****y whtever. He is not God, and can't, and never decide dat. D power belongs to God, and d people to decide not him.
DeleteYes o Oba there's nothing THEY can do its your Kingdom

I wonder o,this man should learn how to talk in public like an oriade must he always remind us hes a former police officer.

ReplyDeleteThis so called oba won't shut hiss mouth n look for a place to go hide his ugly mouth...
ReplyDeleteThis man should mind his utterance, he's so unguided putting into consideration his status.
ReplyDeleteHe should respect the office he occupies.

ReplyDeleteWe are watching o
ReplyDeleteThis oba shuld mind how he tlks. He is a public figure for crying out loud. There is no need for this statement since Jimi himself has said he wont be contesting again.
ReplyDeleteWE HAVE HAD OBAS IN LAGOS IN TIME PAST, BUT THIS ONE... JSMH. WHY KICK A DEAD HORSE, WHY OVERHEAT THE POLITY? WHY NOT BE REGAL WITH YOUR COMMENTS AS AN OBA? WHY ALWAYS DIVISIVE?

ReplyDeleteWho cares
ReplyDeleteOba Orubebe...shio!
ReplyDeleteIn yoruba culture its dangerous to publicly go against d oba. They attack u spiritually & physically. I think its a pride thing.
ReplyDeleteHappened to one of my uncles. In d 80's came bk from study abroad. Got a job wt d govt & started mouthing off at d oba of my small village thinking he was a powerless nonentity. D thing is d oba spoke to other obas & they collectively destroyed his life. He cld never get any job in d whole of Nigeria again & they didnt leave him at dt. Abt 20yrs after, he died after being bedridden for years. Waste. Shoulda just kept quiet.
Don't believe you. He probably had a disease or something. God is more powerful than any and everything mate
DeleteBig yawn!
ReplyDeleteThis Oba hv started again. r u God to say, he won't be gov, pls go and sit dwn jor. God wil bless Jimi and u wil be surprise.

ReplyDeleteIs he God yoruba talk any how
ReplyDeletePatrick
Oba of Lagos, you are not God!! If someone has told Buhari after he has tried like 4 times that he will became president this year , he might have a doubting mind,but here we are he is the President elect of this country. An elderly does not talk much even if there is a personal issue with this man, let it go. Nobody can determine what will happen in the next second, is only God decisions, so sir Jimi Agbaje can still become President of the nation.This is not issue of politic, am APC member but truth must be told
ReplyDeleteTHIS OBA IS STILL AN IDIOT.
ReplyDeleteIs he God? if na me be jimi i go contest again..nn*LongHiss**
ReplyDeleteWay to bury grudges.
ReplyDeleteWow! Family fued. You are not God though. Only God can determine that. For this statement you will see his mighty hand in battle.
ReplyDeleteSilence is always golden.This PBA should know that
ReplyDeletei dont think its civil to speak this way.
ReplyDeleteIts not. Here is d clash between democracy & tradition. Dont be deceived most yorubas do not agree wt all these outbursts.
DeleteMost yorubas were against his outburst against d igbos & even though they would never have said anything to diss d oba (against our culture) pple were ready to vote jimi to spite him. What yorubas didnt like was d tongue lashing dt followed (which felt like outsiders were dragging our whole race & oba through d mud) & of course d coward,lazy, jealous, no mans land disses dt were totally uncalled for since yorubas never even thought igbos saw them dt way. It was like whoa these guys are evil. So this is what theyve bn harbouring all this while we were all smiling together & marrying each other.
Despite all dt, i know a lot of yorubas dt still voted jimi agbaje.
Awwwwwww
DeleteOooh, shut up for fuck sake.
ReplyDeleteAre you God? a shameful leader
ReplyDeleteBirds of the same feather, Oba and Fashola! Oba will forever remain a nuisance while Fashiola remain a hypocrite.
ReplyDeleteJimi already said he is no longer interested anyway
ReplyDeleteThis man talk like he is God sometimes. Any way let me leave yorubas and thier party, party and political obas.
ReplyDeleteDoes not have the qualities that the modern monarchies have. What a misplacement.
DeleteSad!
ReplyDeleteSir, you are not immortal, so stop talking like one.

ReplyDeleteRemember u are not God dat determine who to govern or not
ReplyDeleteToh.....no be your state. Anytin dat happens, na una sabi. Whether Jimi becomes governor or not, he's Ur blood relation not mine, so how does dat affect nigeria? If u like knw all the gutters crisscrossing lagos, sha dnt ruin d state cos f selfish interests.

ReplyDeletewhat a shame,a first class traditional ruler behaving recklessly
ReplyDeleteLousy Oba...
ReplyDeleteFashola is getting old and ugly by day
there is King to whom every other king is subject. there is a counsel to which every throne must bow.
ReplyDeletethe Oba of Lagos, as esteemed as he is is not Almighty God. perhaps he has forgotten this???
This one dey crase
ReplyDeleteHope Oba Akiolu will not get into trouble with this statement again.
ReplyDeleteI think it's wise for Him to mind His Business instead of associating Himself with Ambiguous statement capable of attracting unwarranted insult on His Person and the Kingdom He represent
Hmmm na wa oh
ReplyDeleteShot up r u God
ReplyDeleteThis loud oba of lagos should go sit down first, he doesn't respect the seat he's occupying as oba of lagos.
ReplyDeleteDefeat Is Neva Permanent,
ReplyDeleteDis Oba talks just too much, @ least d ambode guy don win, pls leave Uncle Jimi alone. Oba of Lagos talking rubbish since April 2015.
ReplyDeleteNa wa oooo it is God that not by your power
ReplyDeleteWe are just deceiving ourselves to think that our votes truly counts.
ReplyDelete"Jimi will never be governor."
Even if the whole of Lagos decides to vote for him.
I am a Lagosian and Gov Fashola remains one of The best Leaders Africa has ever produced. When I went to the polls on April 12, I voted for Jimi Agbaje because I believe he has the same temerity Fashola has got. Fashola was not a Party man, he was a visionary leader who wanted the best for Lagos. That was why it was inevitable not to hear about his fights with Tinubu. Amobode's reign will practically be Tinubu reigning. There will be so much corruption in Lagos, Many projects will be awarded but not done or completed and Lagos state will not witness the unprecedented growth it did in the last 8 years. May it be well with us all in Lagos State.
ReplyDeleteKabiesi ooo...Your head dey there. My advice to Jimi abi na jimmy Jatt, join the winning team mayb you'll win in 2021.
ReplyDeleteYour only gate pass is if Ambode messes up which I doubt.
How do you doubt. Are you God. He might even drop dead at any time the Almighty calls for him. "Never ever say never"
DeleteThe man already said he won't contest anymore. What is the problem of this obi? Is he bored with his throne?
ReplyDeleteWhat an illiterate. Water has no s. And it's a democracy, Google that. Kmt! He thinks we are still in his grandfathers days.
ReplyDeleteDear oba, are u God????
ReplyDeleteThe man already said he won't contest anymore. What is the problem of this obi? Is he bored with his throne?
ReplyDeleteYes oooo. He can and will never govern this state. Amen!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love yoruba for a single thing that others tribe can never have1. They will never go the same way, since were not even same colour at least when u see a yellow person he's igbo and black is housa, yoruba is either black or yellow! They are either muslim or christian even if we have the best pastors in nigeria and in afa we no carry last, ibo man are suposse to be the senate president they voted ngige out! They said they want to put their egg inside one crate and the person carry the crate fell down what a pity lolz... now they are begging for ministerial appointment! Thank u God for making me yoruba byethnic the only language oyinbo come study from america, and spoke not only in africa but south america.big thanks to awo too I don't need to tell u why I thank him though.
Delete@ anon 3:03pm, u are not even ashamed of ur sef. Imagine d illustration u gave. Dat yorubas are either black or yellow. Dats d characteristic of a betrayer, a saboteur, a backstabber. And it's exactly wat pple believe u guys are. Tufiakwaaaa
DeleteThe people that speak yoruba in South America have yoruba ancestors that were sold into slavery by the yorubas in Nigeria. So that is not what somebody should be proud of.
DeleteLmfaooooo anon 3:03. Stupidity at its peak. To think most of my Hausa friends are even light in complexion. Which detty yoruba yelloŵ? PLS Yorubas are either black or bleached. No inbtw.
DeleteOK ooo
ReplyDeleteThis man does not respect the crown of Lagos on his head. Of all the Obas Lagos has had this one seems to be a let down. Very soon Ambode and Tinubu will put you in your proper place.
ReplyDeletewhat will ambode & tinubu do? lol.
DeleteAre you even old enough to know anything about the other obas?
DeleteThese man should go and rest already,they think bcx they are in power now they can now dictate wat will happen. Have they forgotten Allah exist,Rubbish.
ReplyDelete#Hajia Mufliat#
Bola tinubu planted d seed, Fashola watered it n u r eating d fruit. FOOL..
ReplyDeleteNonsense talk,this oba should act like an oba and leave politics,he shouldn't be coming out in public criticizing Jimi,he shouldn't forget that Jimi is a Yoruba man as well who made is name outside politics and he has been useful to the citizens Lagos for many years in the health sector,he shouldn't let people trough jibes at him..Oba speak wisely and maintain your prestige.
ReplyDeleteNo traditional ruler or king is above God almighty although the Oba of Lagos is now above the law in Nigeria from May 29 because of APC and Ambode. Ta lo to be? Oba ni o! Hahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteJimmy is a good product but in wrong and corrupt party.
ReplyDeleteYoruba people are cowards by nature. See yoruba man fighting yoruba man. Na watin Jimi Agbaje do this useless Oba of Lagos. The man is just a tout. No wonder he was a former police officer that use to collect bribe. Who are you to pronounce when the Lord has not spoken. He should not allow God almight to disgrace him and bring him down. He should mind the way he talks rubbish like an educated illiterate in public. I hate yoruba people. I cant stand them.
ReplyDeleteAwww pele. Take tissue.
DeleteHate yoruba pple all u want they don't need love from fools like they. Already gotten enof love all over the world
DeleteAbi oooo....nna we no need your love oo
DeleteI wish and pray God shames this mortal playing god. He knows Jimi won't share the tax payer's money with him. God reigns supreme!!
ReplyDeleteY wont he say that... because he was installed by Tinubu against the wish of oracle and ancestors.....Nothing last forever. U r nt God ..please guide ur utterances. . We are aware that Ambode has promised u 2 commissioner from children. Don't worry its just for a while . Where is oba oyekan today... u will soon become history too. Chio... Oba Tinubu. Linda dont chop my comment
ReplyDeleteHe needs to take some chill pills jur.....#Iranu
ReplyDeletedis oba keeps on showing the corrupt policeman in him. what did jimi do to you? clearly d amount of money tinubu and d apc is using to settle dis greedy man, has made him to loose his senses and to belittle this great throne of lagos. He is nothing like the former oba, oba oyekan. With oba oyekan u felt proud to be a lagosian, this one is just a very lousy fool.

ReplyDeleteAfter Rilwan Akiolu threatened violence and death on the Igbos, Fashola should never been appearing on the same platform as Rilwan Akiolu. Birds of a feather? Fashola is two-face. He's a hypocrite and no different from the tribalistic and rotten Rilwan Akiolu.
ReplyDeleteWasn't it Fashola that were deporting Nigerians, Igbos out of Lagos State? He, before Rilwan Akiolu, was dealing injustice, discrimination and humiliation on the Igbo tribe.
APC Lagos, be it Fashola, Bola Tinubu or Rilwan Akiolu, they are all the same rotten, corrupt, filthy, tribalistic and bigoted creatures that have cornered and turned the revenue of Lagos State into their private business.
Basically, be you Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Fulani, as long as you live in Lagos, you are a slave to the Fashola-Akiolu-Fashola mafia that have abducted and holding Lagos State and Lagosians hostage.
One way or another, those rotten crooks get a percentage of the taxes you people pay in Lagos.
One way or another, those rotten crooks get a percentage of every money given to Lagos State by the Federal Government.
This is no longer about APC vs PDP. Lagos needs to be rescued from Fashola-Akiolu-Fashola mafia, I don't care which party wins Lagos in 2019, as long as Fashola-Akiolu-Fashola mafia are permanently dislodged.
Fashola cannot disrespect d king or not invite him for events. Agbaje wld have done d same. And all traditional rulers get a percentage of revenue in their state. Same happens in ur state. So he should deny his culture to please igbos. Please he is not a bastard. These are d kind of sttmnts dt get pple mad. If ur not happy, no one is keeping u or ur money here.
DeleteBut he is saying the truth. Who started BRT, Lastma, Lawma, Lekki road, awolowo road, rehab of ikeja, alausa, vi, bode Thomas and most parts of surulere.. tinubu.
ReplyDeleteWho reformed the judiciary in Lagos, tinubu thru Osinbajo. Who started the Lagos waterways, who made Lagos the best state in terms of internally generated revenue.. tinubu
Ppl forget that tinubu was a wonderful governor who for four years still worked as the best south west governor even when Obasanjo fought him and withheld the federal allocation to Lagos.
Ppl forget or maybe before the blogs, people didn't have much awareness of politics. But the real Lagos boys know that AD/AC/ACN and now APC thru the leadership of Tinubu has been an example.
Tinubu has and will always be riddled with controversy. You forget Toronto (Oh you were not into politics back then)
Even Awolowo whose institutions still live benefit all Nigerians also faced all this. akintola was his friend before his political intrigues landed Awo in prison. same thing when Abiola betrayed him and he lost in the center to an eventually corrupt Shagari government.
And why did these people fight him, a lot of ppl fought Awo bcos they didn't like how he paraded himself as the leader of the Yoruba. But you see the people will love a true leader who performs.
Tinubu is performing and people will love him. Let other leaders (Fayose) perform and he will see the love
But Oba Akiolu said then that Agbaje would never be president, then he added FOR NOW. Just in case, make person hand nor fall. You understand?
ReplyDeleteBut Oba Akiolu said then that Agbaje would never be governor, then he added FOR NOW, just in case, make person hand nor go fall later. You understand? As Agbaje don say e nor go contest again, Oba nor add FOR NOW for the matter again oooo. Na so.
ReplyDeleteOba you are evil man your first son we die
ReplyDeleteOBA BIG FOOOOOL!!! TAKE A SEAT YOU OLD FUCKING HE GOAT. SHIOOOOR!
ReplyDeleteThere is one fool here that is trying to threaten people that insult the oba by saying something spiritual will happen to the person. It is only people that do not know God Almighty that will fear such nonsense. The oba's public conduct is very bad and irresponsible. You cannot catch the Emir of Kano or Oba of Benin talking like this or behaving like a tout. They dont even involve themselves in politics. He should stop being stupid and leave Jimi Agbaje alone. He is not God and can never be God.
ReplyDeleteYes Jimi might not be a governor but he can be president of Nigeria. Hope the Oba knows that? This Oba of Lagos is such a senseless foolish tout. Goat!
ReplyDeleteYes Jimi might not be a governor but he can be president of Nigeria. Hope the Oba knows that? This Oba of Lagos is such a senseless foolish tout. Goat!
ReplyDeleteEven if Jimi offended him, must he go to the public to revenge? Cant you settle whatever differences you have with him personally without disgracing yourselves in public. This is the cowardly behaviour of a typical yoruba man that i dont like.
