Oba Of Ijebuland Rejects Moves To Endorse Jonathan by Nobody: 9:02pm On Mar 12, 2015 |
ABEOKUTA-The Awujale and Paramount ruler of Ijebuland, Oba Dr. Sikiru Kayode Adetona, Thursday, rejected an overture to endorse president Goodluck Jonathan for second term. Oba Adetona who paid a host to the President at his palace in Ijebu-Ode during a presidential visit to his palace, urged the President to present his programme to the people of Ijebuland for them to format their opinion on whether to vote him or not. President Jonathan had arrived Awujale palace at 11:15 am in company of the national Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, Adamu Mu’azu, the governor of Bayelsa state, Seriake Diskson, governor of Ondo state, Dr. Segun Mimiko, former governor of Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga Daniel. Others at the meeting include, the Munister-designate, Musiliu Obanikoro, Chairman , Mobilisation and Organisation committee of the People’s Democratic Party in the South West, Prince, Buruji Kashamu , the PDP governorship candidate in the state, Gboyega Isiaka , PDP leaders as well as some members of All Progressives Congress and Social Democratic Party. According to Awujale,”In Ijebu here, it is not possible for any Oba, not even in Ijebu, in Yorubaland, to go out and say vote for this, vote for that, that person is looking for trouble, but give them the opportunity to present their programme so that people can make up their minds on what to do, I think this is a very sound democratic principle and that is what I have decided to do, to give you the opportunity of meeting with the people." http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/03/awujale-rejects-moves-to-endorse-jonathan/#sthash.Hs23uxfW.dpuf |

This is a unique Oba, unlike those that can do anything for money. Is GEJ expecting the Awujale of Ijebuland to neglect his own kinsman and support others? After all, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo is an indegene of Ikene in Ijebuland. Oba S. Adetona is not ready to sell his own blood(Prof. Yemi Osinbajo) for a plate of porrage. 6 Likes |

I said it here yesterday that in southern Nigeria where I come from, that the traditional rulers have little or no influence on their subjects as regards who they should vote for. 3 Likes |

[quote author=slimfit1 post=31565787][/quote]I urge you to go and visit a psychiatrist or simply go to the bar beach for spiritual bath, because, for you to be posting the names of the defunct interim excos of APC, when a new one have been put in place for more than six months now,shows that you have a very BIG PROBLEM. 2 Likes |

Has the Presidents campaign committee ever researched the connotations of a yoruba Oba hosting a public personality talk less of a President in public rather than behind closed doors? Deep signals have been sent to the voting community already. |
