A Prince of the source from Giesi Ruling House of Ife, Prince Adedoyin Derin-Ologbenla has made his stand known on the recent installation of Wasiu Ayinde as Mayegun of Yoruba Land, he said "Our culture cannot be toy with, we all know the right from wrong."

Wasiu Ayinde was recently installed as Mayegun of Yorubaland by His Majesty Ọba Lamido Adeyemi Àlàáfíà of Oyo, Yes I don't have any issue with Kwam1 nor Kaabiesi himself. But when it comes to royal titles, such titles is/ are bound on the town or village where they are installed.

All Mayeguns should be Mayeguns of the town that gave them the chieftaincy title and no by any means extend it to yoruba land. Mayegun of Oyo should be For Oyo, Mayegun of ife should be for IFE. Yoruba land doesn't have a general imperial majesty as every towns and villages have their own kings who can give anyone the title of Mayegun.

Wasiu K1 of APC is Mayegun of Oyo and not of yoruba land just like Tinubu is the Asiwaju of Lagos not of Yoruba land.

No extension please..

Prince Adedoyin Ologbenla

well said

I think the Àlàáfín is simply playing politics with the title. The only title the Alaafin can give that covers all Yoruba land is the Aare Ona Kankanofo because of the historical significance of the title. Any other title given by the monarch is limited to Oyo town.

Congratulations to K1 on his installation.
