Should Oba Rilwan Akiolu apologise to Ooni of Ife?

The tidy raised by the way the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, reprimanded the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, at an open occasion as of late presently can't seem to settle, as more people have kept on responding to the episode. In the 25 seconds video, which uncovered what happened between them, the Ooni of Ife touched base at the scene of the occasion where Oba Akiolu sat adjacent to the Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Alfred Achebe. The Ooni strolled over to welcome the rulers, yet when he offered the Oba of Lagos a handshake, Oba Akiolu turned away and expelled him with a rush of the hand. Given the shock that had welcomed the occurrence, with many blasting the Oba of Lagos for such demeanor towards the Ooni,
It’ll be good if Oba Akiolu can apologise – Chief Ayo AdebanjoThe activity of the Oba of Lagos is condemnable; it is not done in Yorubaland. It doesn't delineate the workplace of a ruler. Passing by the shock that his activity has produced, it will be a stage in the correct heading on the off chance that he could apologize to the Ooni. I think he ought to do it, however I question in the event that he will, knowing the kind of individual that Oba Akiolu is.I’m sure Akiolu wouldn’t intend to insult Ooni –Senator Anthony Adefuye, Secretary, Yoruba Unity ForumI don't think I ought to make a remark now, however I feel we are recently attempting to make a mountain out of a molehill. That is Oba of Lagos' standard method for welcome individuals. It may not be great, but rather that is his standard method for welcome individuals. At times, when you are welcome him, you would just hear his voice. Be that as it may, I'm certain he wouldn't have expected to affront the Ooni by any means. We will investigate it and ensure the entire thing is settled. Obviously every Yoruba man would be concerned with what happened, yet we ought to do whatever it takes not to misrepresent what has happened. The Ooni, who should be the main conventional ruler in Yorubaland must be regarded. We should all give him the regard. Regardless of the possibility that I go to the Ooni, I move on the ground, paying little mind to his age. We are doing it for the crown and the kingdom, all the more so that the individual on that honored position has been great. He's a man of peace and since he arrived, he has dependably searched for approaches to join the Yoruba kingdom. I recall when the Alaafin was praising his 50th year on the honored position, the Ooni was there despite the fact that he wasn't welcomed, and that is charitableness. He went there and I'm glad all Oyo individuals invited him. From that point forward, there has been a cheerful connection between them. He has additionally gone by a large number of them at home. In this way, the Ooni is a man of peace and he promptly answered after the story circulated around the web that there was no issue and that he would keep on respecting the Oba of Lagos. I think we ought to all help them to accomplish peace and we shouldn't misrepresent what is going on. I'm certain the Oba of Lagos intended no mischief; that is his style.It was an unfortunate incident – Former Minister of Education, Prof. Tunde AdeniranIt was a most grievous episode which I accept ought to be maintained a strategic distance from in future. It was shocking and truly humiliating and regardless of what might be close to home between them, they are our regal fathers. They ought to lay great cases for others to take after by being amicable as siblings. Their appearances, expressions and practices ought to send great signs to the all inclusive statement of the general population. Furthermore, we would lean toward a circumstance where they pass on to the outside world that we Yoruba individuals adore each other and are our siblings' managers and that we are relatives from a similar birthplace. What's more, what is more imperative is that since we know the estimation of kinship, serene conjunction et cetera, we additionally demonstrate it in our own associations and associations with others. Furthermore, when out in the open, we set up the largest amount of dignity, so it is lamentable it happened however it shouldn't be made a huge deal about. No one is above errors and it may be the case that the Oba (of Lagos) was in a specific state of mind, so let us close that part and push ahead. Approaching the Oba of Lagos to apologize to the Ooni of Ife is redundant. Every one of us have as of now apologized to the Ooni of Ife with the way individuals have ascended to demonstrate that the way he was dealt with was wrong. That ought to be sufficient; we ought not let this keep on dragging on. Furthermore, the Ooni of Ife is extremely peace adoring, nice and imperial in each regard and he ought to keep up the great soul and not harbor any hostility. It has gone and everybody has talked pretty much to censure that kind of mentality towards him.Ooni doesn’t need Oba Akiolu’s apology – Dr. Olu AgunloyeI have seen excessively numerous misuse from the Oba of Lagos thus when I knew about the video which became a web sensation of him censuring the Ooni, I didn't try to watch it. Passing by his most recent activity, I think the end has come. His activity was bad. It's dishonorable, an oba doesn't carry on that way. Indeed, even the Ooni, who is more youthful, has indicated better respect. I'm recently troubled that Oba Akiolu's activity has pulled in many abuse to himself, which is bad for us as a Yoruba race. There shouldn't be anything that would drag the workplace of the ruler in the mud. I don't think the Ooni needs Oba Akiolu's statement of regret, seeing that he had even said he would keep on respecting him.Obas should serve as role models – Dr. Kunle Olajide, former Secretary General, Yoruba Council of EldersI was not especially glad about the occasion. I trust that our customary rulers, aside from being the overseers of our way of life and having the duty to ensure and propel our way of life, should go about as good examples for all Yoruba. We ought to form our lives after the way they experience theirs. They should fill in as great cases as far as ethics and direct. That was the reason I was not exactly cheerful at all since one would expect a level of fellowship between them being Yoruba obas. Yet, having perused the response of the Eleko of Eko (Oba of Lagos), saying his activity is in similarity with his own conventions, it is just his own youngsters (Lagosians) who can state maybe he ought to apologize.All Yoruba Obas are bound to respect Ooni – Peter Fatomilola, Veteran actor and cultural leaderI would state any Oba in Yorubaland will undoubtedly regard the seat of the Ooni, not considering the period of who involves the seat. The position of Ooni is one to be regarded and adored by all. Anyone who is the Ooni is holding the position of Oduduwa and I don't know why the Oba of Lagos would not regard the way of life of yesteryears. I recall when Oba Adesoji Aderemi and Oba Okunade Sijuwade, the Olubuse II, were on the honored position, they were loved. A similar regard individuals had for those past Obas ought to be reached out to the present Ooni. It's not just about him, it's likewise about the position he possesses.
