    Alaafin Gives Ooni of Ife 48 Hours To Revoke Chieftaincy Title or Face Consequences

    The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Abimbola Akeem Owoade, has issued the Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi, a 48-hour deadline to revoke the Okanlomo of Yorubaland chieftaincy title recently bestowed on Ibadan business magnate Engineer Dotun Sanusi.

    On Monday, the Alaafin’s Director of Media and Publicity, Bode Durojaiye, issued a statement calling the Ooni’s conduct an “affront”.

    He also stated that it was a direct challenge to his authority.

    The Alaafin reiterated that he holds the exclusive right to bestow titles that cover the entire Yorubaland.

    According to the statement: “The conferment of a Yoruba-wide chieftaincy title by the Ooni is not only ultra vires but an insult to the Titan of Yorubaland.

    “The Supreme Court itself has ruled that only the Alaafin has such authority. Yet, the Ooni continues to act above the law, trampling on both tradition and the courts.”

    The Alaafin warned that if the Ooni fails to withdraw the title within 48 hours, “consequences will follow.”
