The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has challenged the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Abimbola Owoade over his 48-hour ultimatum to revoke the chieftaincy title of Okanlomo of Yorubaland, bestowed on Ibadan-based businessman, Chief Dotun Sanusi.

Ooni’s spokesperson, Moses Olafare said:

“Ooni is busy setting up businesses and creating jobs for youths across Yorubaland; they are busy fighting supremacy that doesn’t exist. Dead Empire!”

“Their 48-hour ultimatum will soon lapse. We are waiting. Dead Empire!!! Ooni plans for the groundbreaking and launch of Ojaja Smart City, Ibadan, the biggest in Africa; someone is somewhere busy issuing 48-hour empty threats.”

“Where does this king (Ooni) have time for supremacy hullabaloo? Issuing a 48-hour ultimatum over a chieftaincy title that doesn’t even exist!!!”
