Former President OBJ’s point is very valid. However, his approach for correction was very wrong. Could have made his point without asking them to stand.
Two wrongs don’t make right.

undecided Baba Obj, what's wrong with correcting them without ordering them to stand up like school children.
Even if those Obas did wrong......2 wrongs don't make a RIGHT.

He's gonna rue that.

How? A 3 time President. Yes he deserved more respect than they displayed. How can he possibly rue what he’s entitled to? What can they do to him? He’s retired and enjoying the proceeds of his political sojourn.

Cunning old man speaking half truth,
I know baba is still very bitter with the Obas for reasons best know to him and few of us. Sure Obasanjo will never get over his loss.
Obasanjo doesn't forgive.
That is why his identity is questionable,you will never hear anyone again apart from him bearing the name Obasanjo in any of Yoruba state.

It is a complicated situation.
And you can discern the difference if you're being honest.

As per OBJ, his explanation here seems honorable as he claims it was in defense of the Governor.

However his execution was flawed. There are better and wiser and honorable ways he could have handled the situation.

He can't escape his come-uppance unless he seeks their forgiveness.

This can be a sort of understanding between them, this happens when you have known the king from childhood, both of you have special bond, this is a playful exchange between them, as any reasonable human can see.

These scoundrels that call themselves Obas or whatever. Wetin be their problem sef, Would any one of them be installed as a king if the governor objects to it?
The governor grants the right to kingship, gives them certificate and pays them salaries and yet they believe they are greater than their master?
