Oba Abdulrasheed Adewale Akanbi, the Oluwo of Iwoland has been trending since the news of his assault on Oba Sikiru Akinropo, the Agbowu of Ogbagbaa broke.

He has explained his own side of the story. Regardless, many Nigerians have lambasted him for his irresponsible assault on another Oba at a peace meeting called by the AIGin charge of zone 11, Bashir Makama in Osogbo, Osun State.

As the Oluwo tries to sort himself out, here are things you should know about about him.

He accused the Ooni of ordering his guards to push him out of the way at a meeting of traditional rulers in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. Ooni replied with maturity and said there was no rift between them.

A crown on a clown does not make a king.

That lousy Y-Y guy will soon cease to be a King.
