A dog Interference in the Jungle Kingship
Irony of Gov.ajumobi and olubadan's kingship issue...
why should the government start crowning and naming kings? Has the yoruba culture been mudered to the extent that the government are now the ones deciding who is qualified to be a king and who isnt fit, why are they the ones telling us where to zone a kingship title nd when its deem fit to. Where are those honest elders and ifa priests and the most trustworthy kingmakers that have once lived during the period of our forefathers,the ones who will never sell the future of their wards because of wordly things,the ones who will tell you to go away with ur millions of nairas and luxurious fleet of cars which was being given to them as a gift, ones who will tell you "am comfortable living in a bungalow with my idols an 2 piece of white dansiki and sokoto plus oja with fresh air rather than living in a storey building with AC and cars with millions) please do they still exist ? What about those days that kings are like a small god to everyone which they all worship and nobody dare look straight in the eyes. Kings that will command and that command would instantly be having effect. Please where are all these kind of brave and wonderful Kings.we've heard of Jaja of opobo,what about afonja who died in the line of defending his kingdom and people,Queen amina of zaria nko ? A brave woman in the war front. Abi we should talk about moremi ajasooro! Of offa, Oranmiyan nko ,his impact while alive and even after dead is a story that cannot be forgotten.
Now why are government officials interfering in our culture is a question we are supposed to be posing and stone throwing to our corrupt kings in yoruba land, how many times have we seen or heard about dangote,or any other hausa influential directing or imposing a decision or even check and balancing for the sultan of sokoto,kaduna,kano or any other emir in the northern Nigeria,even Ilorin that is being imprisoned by a government official family,decisions isn't being made for the Emir there.
In the yoruba land we have just 3 main and most fearful kingship positions, that is OONI OF IFE, ALAAFIN OF OYO AND OKUOPOLOPOLO OF BENIN KINGDOM..these positions are being held by high esteemed personels..let's leave that aside.
Why would a common governor start installing kings all around ibadan area, is he a kingmaker? And the high ibadan cheifs that were given the titles also accepted just like that without thinking twice YORUBAAA!!!YORUBA!!!!YORUBA!!!! Why are we always self centred and we don't even think about the future of our children, if the other Kings of yoruba land are folding their arms and not saying anything about the matter that means they have eaten plantaing and cannot speak the truth anymore, the youths are fearless of any politician. We stand against the illegal imposition and enthroning of any wuruwuru and malicious ignoramus kings in Ibadan..Oba lamidi Alaafin of oyo empire is enough..oosa bi afin ni Alaafin,Ajumobi kai! Ko se e rifin ma danwo..Oba o ki n pe meji laafin nile Yoruba,eewo ni....
