Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi, has recounted a dramatic experience during a recent visit to the palace of the Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi.
In a video that has gone viral, Ogunwusi detailed how he was allegedly chased out of Oluwo's castle, leaving many stunned and disbelieving.
While the Ooni of Ife maintained a courteous demeanour throughout the video, refraining from addressing any disputes and showing respect for his fellow king, the details of his visit reveal a deeper divide.
Speaking, the Ooni of Ife said:
"When I visited Oluwo, he chased me out like a child. Since that incident, I have always maintained myself going close to him. Now that you people (attendees) are imploring that I visit him again, what if he does what he likes to me?
"But I have to contain his excesses as an elder, although I am a young person sitting on the throne of the elders. Oluwo, I greet you."
