Embattled Oluwo of Iwoland in Osun state, Oba Adulrasheed Akanbi has said that he has the right as a king to bear Emir and other kingship titles in Nigeria like Obi/Igwe, Attah among others.

 
Oba Akanbi has been enmeshed in controversies following his adoption of Emir title at the last weekend.
 
The traditional ruler had denied abandoning his Oba title after condemnations trailed his comments.
 
But speaking on a radio programme on Rave Fm in Osogbo on Tuesday, Oluwo said "how can you abandon who you are? Can you abandon king for king? Oba is our own word. I am an Oba and I will remain Oba for life. I only said I can also be referred to as an Emir. I am the Emir of Yorubaland, I am the Igwe of Yorubaland and the Obi of Yorubaland."
 
"I can bear all titles of kings. We have to upgrade and update our traditional culture, else, we will go into extinction," he added.
 
He said he was starting a cultural revolution and that was the reason he would wear Emir regalia sometimes. He said whenever he adorn in this regalia, he is trying to make a statement.
 
He said this revolution he started would make Emirs and Sultans wear 'agbada' like a Yoruba and see every one in their domain as subjects who they would be responsible for.
 
He said northern traditional rulers admired his Emir regalia when even he puts it on but expressed concern that he was not getting support from Yoruba Obas and people.
 
He said some people have bad bellies against him stressing that he couldn't help them because they had succeeded in more popular.
 
"By saying that I can also be addressed as Emir, I talked metaphorically. But some bad bellied people are condemning me and telling lies against me. My enemies are making me known. God is using my enemies to promote me.
 
"Some people don't like the way I add swags. I can't help them. I want to upgrade our culture. I promote ofi dress and Emirs love my dressing."
