Our Ref: CULT./VOL.8/163

His Excellency,
Engr. Oluseyi Abiodun Makinde
The Executive Governor of Oyo State,
Governor's Office, State Secretariat,
Ibadan

REMINDER FOR EXECUTIVE APPROVAL OF PUBLIC HOLIDAY FOR TRADITIONAL RELIGION

1. Kindly accept my royal pleasantry and best wishes Your Excellency. I wish to respectfully draw Your Excellency's attention to our traditional religion, which is part of our heritage and needs to be preserved. It is today widely accepted and practiced in other parts of the world, especially in the African Diaspora.

2. It is crystal clear that since the inception of this administration, peace and tranquility had been reigning and it is only in an atmosphere of peace and unity that development and progress can thrive. However the recognition given to Christianity and Islam is physically pronounced with the declaration of a particular day or date for the observance of a festival day for the adherents of these two religions.

3. Subsequently a declaration of a specific date / day (20th August) for the observance of our Traditional Religion as "TRADITIONAL RELIGION DAY" just like Easter, Christmas, Idel Fitiri and Idel Kabir.

4. Pursuant to the above I wish to request that Your Excellency to show commitment for this project of continuity of peace and unity through endorsement of initiatives to move Oyo State up in the global cultural index scale by recognizing Traditional Religion and declaring August 20 of every year a public holiday as "TRADITIONAL RELIGION DAY".

6. Kindly consider these propositions as appropriate steps in our collective efforts to re-invent Oyo State.

7. Please accept the assurance of highest regards from Royal Stool.

Hello

T9ksy:




yeah, of course ! He had so much respect for tradition that he started looking like a MJ double.

He had so much respect for tradition that he went mute as his "sons" are being butchered in their farms and homes by so-called foreigners.

MJ had a skin disorder

Hello

One of the problems of we so called youth is we always post what 'you think' as the fact.

You thought you are making sense but you are actually killing yourself because the same way you rubbish someone hard work and labor is the same way people will rubbish yours knowingly or unknowingly. This is the law of karma not a curse!

If you have made your research, you will know that no king in Yoruba land has made effort to secure his territory the way late Alaafin did! As a matter of fact, he with the help of police and traditionalist disbanded many settlements of suspected 'bad' Fulani in Oyo several times.
What many governors are scared to do.

He single handedly fought Akala because he did not develop Oyo as promised to the point Akala wanted to sack him as Alaafin.

FYI, Alaafin is a very light-skinned man and that made most of his children light-skinned and resembled him.

He reigned for 52 yrs and I know you are less than 52yrs through your assertion.
Stop spreading misinformation about anybody.
He has done better that many states governors in Nigeria since democracy.

I am not from Oyo state but I have a house in Ibadan and executed some projects in Oyo.

T9ksy:



So, saying that our royal king bleached his skin (like MJ) is now a personal attack? So, you think it's okay for our 1st class trying to denounce his heritage by bleaching his skin. And what sort of message, is he inadvertently communicating to his subjects?

When did he speaks up for his people-yorubas? Was it when the fulanis ransacked Igangan simply 'cause Igboho sent the Seriki of Igangan packing ( if he failed to fish out those fulani who killed Dr. Aborede)?

Did the Alafin speak up when fulanis invaded Yewa community and sent the indigenes into IDP camp in Benin. They are still languishing in Benin Republic over a year later whilst many lost their lives.

Wetin koncern me with his wives? Melo lafe do lo 'bo, ta ni ki ile, ma mo?

Oyibo can insult person sha.

Of all his greatness, they wouldn't let him pass the gate to the Buckingham palace. He has to resort to photo opps at the gate.

The truth is that Alaafin was not light-skinned not to talk of very light-skinned. While the op was disrespectful in his submission, it doesn't change the facts.

What is heritage about skin color? We are not African Americans to be obsessed about skin.

He was living the Yoruba heritage and he fought for it till the very end. You who speak about heritage, if you can even live upto or contribute to 1/100th of what he has done, then it will be a great thing.

The Alaafin has always supported Igboho and like a true leader he has been diplomatic outwardly to maintain the balance of power with the centre and the states.

The Alaafin has time and again spoken on the Fulani menace . To say he kept quiet is gross injustice.

This is not the Empire of Oyo. This is the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The Alaafins duty of office is to preserve the tradition, religion, and culture of his realm. Which he has fulfilled to excellence.

Speaking over the woes of the public is the duty of the state politicians. You should've directed these questions at the politicians in power. Not the Alaafin who has been a good intermediator throughout for the greater good of the Yoruba race.

This was the last deed the Alaafin wanted to do before he died.



The Alaafin recognized that

Nigeria's good future lies in the Traditional Religion of our ancestors.

I really appreciate how you fights with receipts. Oloribuku somebody ni Bobo yen

I respect the king submissions on traditions

Only Alaafin na Muslim and traditional religion?

So Alaafin get two faith?

no wonder why God killed him. God doesn't want competitors. I thought he wrote a letter to the governor for development and welfare of his people. I never thought the letter is for nonsense request

SpatialKing:
Yet they buried him as a Muslim and not a traditionalist

U ARE NOT CORRECT

Double standard. During his life time, he was a practicing muslim, and was even buried according to Islamic burial rites at his death. So, why clamour for traditional worshipers holiday. Some of them are only traditional rulers just for the prestige and benefits that come to the office of the occupier, and they go back to practice their religion. Can you serve two masters?

He was never buried as per islamic rites. Only morning prayers were said over his body and that too at the request of his family.

The Alaafin had explicitly said before death that his Chiefs , the Oyomessi would know what to do with his body.

Also the islam he practiced was for diplomacy and for the interests of his people. Rest he was a Sango worshipper and his marrying of 13 wives and other practices are totally unislamic.
