Although political undertone may easily be read from George's assertion on the selection of the new ooni, it's still important to realize some elements of truth in what he said. After all, no one throws away a baby with its bath water.
The choice of certain traditional rulers could be influenced by politics, but some should be a no-go area for politicians of all divide. The choice of oba of lagos may be politically influenced as it is of no great significance to the Yoruba culture & heritage, but the traditional stool of Ooni as the most revered in our Yoruba land should not be politicized. An attempt to politicize the selection could spell doom for our culture.
The new Ooni must be a father to all Yoruba sons & daughters, irrespective of sectoral differences.
O'odua a gbe wa o!

True talk! Baba asiwaju should allow them select their king! He musnt be involved in everything

My brother, it will be hard to get a technocrat as the new ooni. It will work both ways, its either the person belong to APC or the person belong to PDP.

The late ooni was a supporter of PDP. He owns the highest stake in RCC.
It has always been political. Its not the first time and won't also be the last.

If either tinubu wins or bode George wins.

Don't mind Bode George, Awolowo influence Sijuade's selection and everyone was aware of it, much as i wouldn't want Tinubu's involvement in this new Ooni's selection, Bode George cannot dictate to Tinubu, everyone is aware of this too.

My bro, we are saying the same thing. It will be hard to get a technocrat as public figure. It will be influenced.
Aregbe preferred candidate will emerge as new Ooni.
Just as we just saw in ekiti. The ogoga of ikere is fayose preferred candidate.
