Popular freedom fighter, Sunday Adeyemo, known as Sunday Igboho, said the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has failed Yoruba People.
The Yoruba activist said he was disspointed in the king after he visited President Muhammadu Buhari on the farmers and herders crisis but “refused to tell the president the truth about the situation”.
Sunday made this known during a virtual ‘Townhall With Youruba In Diaspora’.
Igboho in his statement said;
“The monarchs are now afraid but we must keep praying for them to be united with one voice.
“They should not be afraid of arrest at their age. Some of them don’t even grant audience at their palaces any longer.
“So, everything is now in God’s hands.
“When Ooni met with Buhari over the herdsmen issue, Ooni should have told Buhari the truth but he did not.
“When Ooni returned, he started tackling me to leave the remaining task to the government to finish. You can imagine that kind of talk?
“Alaafin of Oyo has asked me to meet him over the matter.
“Alaafin should have been the one invited to meet Buhari but since the Ooni was invited, he should be bold to tell the President the whole truth and make the demands of the Yoruba people known to the President.
“The Ooni disappointed himself. Some politicians are behind Ooni’s latest move. He invited me to his palace but I refused to go.
“I would have gone if he had represented us well but he did not. I won’t honour any monarch who does not cooperate with me. Enough is enough, the Fulani have done enough,” Igboho stated.
