For The First Time, Oluwo Attends Obas’ Council Meeting At Ooni’s Palace

The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Adewale Akanbi, is presently attending a meeting of the Osun State Traditional Rulers Council Meeting at the palace of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi.
Oluwo has never attended the meeting since he took the throne almost at the same time as the Ooni in 2015.  It was concluded that some Obas had, at the last meeting held on July 4, 2017, raised the issue of the Oluwo and they decided to go to Iwo to prevail over him to attend this meeting.  Olojuo of Ido Osun, Oba Aderemi Adedapo, who is the secretary of the Council of Obas and about 40 other traditional chiefs were present.  The Ooni d'Ife, who came last to the meeting place, surrendered and saluted all the traditional leaders one after the other. All the traditional leaders rose to acknowledge his greetings.  The Ooni, who presided over the meeting, prayed for the monarchs and cities presided over by each of them.

 Oba Ogunwusi said, “It has been long since we held this meeting. The meeting is usually held on a monthly basis. This is not the time to point accusing finger at anybody.

“The Timi (of Ede) came to me and told me that he would not be here because he was traveling out and that he had scheduled the trip before the meeting was called. So also is the Orangun of Ila.

“I greet the Oluwo specially. Like I always say, all of you left here. I am the caretaker here. Unity and the development of our state is very important.

“I greet the Oluwo special, especially being his first time of coming here. Nobody is asking you not to come here. This is your house.”
