Ooni of Ife, His Imperial Majesty, Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi (Ojaja 11) on Friday disowned a remark credited to one Tunde Awoyemi who claimed to be the palace Director of tourism that the palace of Ooni would invoke the wrath of ancestors on Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu if he fails to tender apology for snubbing Arole of Oduduwa at a public function recently.
Ooni Ogunwusi
insisted he would continue to hold Oba of Lagos in high esteem and
continually give him respect not only as one of the foremost traditional
rulers, but also as an elderly Oba.
In a
statement issued by Oba Ogunwusi's director of media and public affairs,
Comrade Moses Olafare, "the palace of Ooni is using this medium to
dissociate Ooni of Ife from the statement credited to Mr Tunde Awoyemi
and we have said it repeatedly that we have no official reaction to the
issue of Oba Akiolu".
"Kabiyesi Ogunwusi is
committed to his peace and unity agenda, which he has embarked on since
he ascended the throne of his forefathers. We refrain from reacting
officially, with a view to avoiding fanning any ember of discord as Oba
Akiolu remains respected monarch and the Ooni had established a very
robust and healthy relationship with him before his installation as Ooni
of Ife".
"While Ooni would continue to sustain
the relationship with Oba Akiolu, we want to state categorically that
the remark credited to Tunde Awoyemi was not authorised by Ooni and
should be disregarded by all Nigerians both at home and in diaspora".
Signed;
Comrade Moses Olafare,
Director,
Media & Public Affairs,
Ooni's Palace.
