I don't know why these people are hypocrites like this? Did Obasanjo use cane to force Obas to stand for him? Why no attack on the spineless Obas who don't even know how to protest their rights? Is it not the same Obas that were collecting brown envelope bribes on camera prior to 2019 election? Where then is their integrity? Obasanjo is you guys problem now right? Where was Soyinka when these same Obas collected bribes on a life camera? Was that not a big embarrassment? Make una dey get shame sometimes nah. Shove this nonesense noise down your sorry ass. I hate hypocrites aswear down. If it was Tinubu who throws money around, let me hear any pim. Nansense https://youtube.com/shorts/n4O9lTDIipo?si=-Xb4Z4w-H83aUVxg 5 Likes 3 Shares |

"Our royal highnesses, I wish to assure you that I am not about to bark at you to stand up and sit down". This is a Traditional/Cultural ODU-DU-IWA'S PROBLEM REQUIRING SOLUTIONS NOT VITUPERATIONS. Our people elect GOVERNORS AND PRESIDENTS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE PURPOSES. Our people are citizens and electorates of our TRADITIONAL RULERS. Our TRADITIONAL RULERS ARE THE CUSTODIANS OF ALL THINGS FOR GOD AND FOR THE PEOPLE. SO OUR TRADITIONAL RULERS MUST HAVE A WAY TO ALWAYS ACKNOWLEDGE AT ANY GATHERING, THE GOVERNORS AND PRESIDENTS THAT THEY GUIDE THEIR PEOPLE TO ELECT TO ADMINISTER THEM. SUCH ACKNOWLEDGEMENT MUST NOT INCLUDE THE STANDING UP AND SITTING DOWN OF TRADITIONAL RULERS AT ANY GATHERING. GOD BLESS SOYINKA, OBASANJO AND YORUBA VALUE SYSTEM. |
