The Royal Traditional Council of Ife has suspended Chief Ramon Adedoyin, who is the Maye of Ife, for allegation he mocked the stool of the Ooni, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi.

The Council announced the suspension of Adedoyin at a press conference in Ile Ife on Tuesday.

Adedoyin was said to have released an ewi (poetry) allegedly composed to ridicule the monarch.

Adedoyin, the founder of the Oduduwa University, was conferred with the chieftaincy title by Oba Okunade Sijuwade, Ooni Ogunwusi’s predecessor.

Sixteen kingmakers of Ile Ife attended the presser.

They included the Obalufe of Ife, Oba Idowu Adediwura, who is the traditional prime minister and the Lowa Adimula of Ife, Oba Adekola Adeyeye.

They also said the Oloyere of Oyere, Oba Adeoye Adefarakan, was one of those being allegedly used by Adedoyin to deride the stool.

”That beyond a reasonable doubt, Chief Ramon Adedoyin and his cohorts like Oba Adeoye Adefarakan have committed offences of defaming the stool and character of the Ooni of Ife, assault and the libellous release of the ewi remain indelible and all these acts are conducts likely to cause a breach of peace,” they said.

“That all parties involved in the meeting passed a vote of no confidence on Chief Ramon Adedoyin and Oba Adeoye Adefarakan.

” That the House of Oduduwa henceforth suspends the chieftaincy title of Maye of Ife that was bestowed on Chief Ramon Adedoyin until further notice.

“Chief Ramon Adedoyin should not parade himself as the Maye of Ife until he absolved himself of his disloyalty and betrayal to the stool of Ooni and the House of Oduduwa.”
