'I Belong To Every Race' - Oluwo Of Iwo Says As He Rocks Traditional Igbo Attire by odun360(m): 8:09am On May 28, 2018
The Oluwo of Iwoland in Osun state, Adbulrasheed Akanbi who recently faced serious backlash for rocking a Northern attire and reportedly saying he wants to henceforth be addressed as the ''Emir of Yorubaland'' is back again.



This time, he dressed in Ibo garment at the installation of the first Asiwaju (Leader) of Igbo Assembly in Iwoland saying his dressing is an insistence on the unity of Nigeria.


The Oluwo tasked government to relax policies militating the oneness of Nigeria such as the state of origin certificate, restriction of political aspirations to once immediate environment and many others.


He said ethnic divide has done the nation much damage, beseeching people to appreciate modern practices obtainable in developed nations for national development. He pointed only Lagos and Osun State are accommodating and voting people of different ethnic attachment into the positions of authority.


He advised the wearing of other tribe's clothes for love and unity to make Nigeria one and preparing a better future for every Nigerian regardless of where they chose to live. He equally implore other kings to adopt every Nigerian as their own child

He pointed palaces are central actors in vital exclusive decisions most especially in the promotion of unity in the country, appealing to monarchs across the country to treat Nigerians equally and make their palace open to everyone. In his address at the installation ceremony held at Oluwo's palace square today, noted the religious and ethnic clashes have seriously dwindled Nigeria economy to the incoveneincy of all

He said many ethnic clashes would have been foiled should people see every monarch as their father and central authority. He pointed the authority of the palace discriminate nor stigmatize but only acted as father to all parties involved in an issue. I AM A FATHER TO ALL !!!

People can yab this guy all they want. If it was not that he was already known as an unstable person, it would have been a great idea.

Let all kings embrace the cultures of other tribes, so their people could also have empathy for them aswell.

The European monarchys stayed strong because of intermarriage between themselves.

It fosters unity!

He is doing damage control, he knows that Yorubas will see the Igbo attire as simply a fashion statement, but the Fulani attire he wore last time and calling himself 'Emir of Yorubaland' has a lot of political undertones which has not gone down well with a lot of Yorubas in relation to what happened in Ilorin between Afonja and Fulani jihadist Janta Alimi.

If this is weed, then I will be-friend marijuana. That man is using his position to unite all. Just like weed unite the bad and the good guys in loving madness.
