CultureRe: Why I reacted to Ooni of Ife the way I did at public function- Oba Akiolu by Dgreatestt: 8:41pm On Apr 28, 2017
tunderay:
The Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, has cleared the air on the video making the rounds in the social media that is being misconstrued as his snubbing the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, at a public function in Lagos. Rather, Oba Akiolu said his gesture to the Ooni was the culturally acclaimed way of greeting a monarch in Lagos.
Akiolu and Ogunwusi
Akiolu and Ogunwusi
The position of Oba Akiolu was stated by one of the white cap chiefs of Lagos, Lateef Aderibigbe Ajose, who is the Opeluwa Onido of Lagos.
Ajose said the Lagos monarch did not ignore Ooni of Ife at the public function as being misconceived by people. He said Oba Akiolu’s response to Oba Ogunwusi was the culturally acclaimed way of greeting by a monarch in Lagos.
He added that the Lagos King is basically trying to revive the culture and tradition of ancient Lagos, which is peculiar to the State.
Other tribes also have their peculiar ways of greeting, he said.

Ajose stated: “The sign by Oba Akiolu signifies ‘inu mi, inu e’, the culture of greeting in Lagos.
“If Oba Akiolu wanted to ignore, he would have turned his face away from Ooni.
“There is no misunderstanding between both highly revered monarchs in Yorubaland.”
According to Ajose, the relationship between both Yoruba kings is peaceful and mutual.
He said: “Oba Akiolu was well represented at the coronation of Ooni of Ife, which attested to the fact that he does not disregard the office of Ooni Adeyeye Ogunwusi.”
Chief Ajose said Oba Akiolu had waited till this time to react to the issue because he had to meet with other chiefs in the palace to rub minds before addressing the public on the matter. He said: “There is no sentiment in the culture of Lagos.
“As we met it, that is the way we are doing it.
“Kabiyesi Oba Akiolu is trying to bring back the old pattern, the old culture we have left behind. “What happened that day was wrongly speculated by the social media to disrupt peace and order and misinterpret Oba Akiolu’s action.
“We just want to appeal to the social media to stop spreading wrong information.
“They should try and understand the reason behind every action carried out, most especially by traditional rulers. “Yoruba has a very rich culture.
“There is no quarrel between the Oba of Lagos and Ooni of Ife

. YabaTech: “How Charity Dazan died”
– friends narrate tragic story
— 11 FEB, 2016
SHARE
Oluwabukola Charity Dazan died aged 27. This
picture was taken by one of her friends on Tuesday
February 2, 2016 during her departmental
“traditional day.”
You must have heard lots of stories about how
YabaTech’s Oluwabukola Charity Dazan of the
Department of Office Technology and
Management (OTM) died on Wednesday.
NewsroomNG had lengthy chats with student
friends who were with her in her last moments.
We also spoke with, and were with, many of the
students as they protested after Dazan’s tragic
passing. We’ve promised to not name our
sources.
Here’s their side of the story.
“This is due to absolute neglect on the part of
YabaTech authorities and Nigerian medical
workers outside the walls of this school,” one of
them said.
Oluwabukola Charity Dazan, 27, finished writing a
practical examination (Advanced Web Page
Design) around 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday when she
suddenly fell ill.
She went to the medical center to be attended
to when the thing got worse.
“They simply gave her paracetamol or something
and refused to let her into the sick ward where
there are beds she could sleep in,” the student
said.
“Dazan was not allowed past the clinic’s lobby. I
wasn’t surprised. That’s how they do here. They
are pathetic.
A noisy crowd of students gathers at YabaTech
Theatre Hall to listen to the school Rector Mrs.
Margaret Kudi Ladipo. We couldn’t make anything
of her speech. A student called it “medicine after
death.” Another tagged it “balderdash.”
“I’m very tired,” Dazan was complaining so her
friends decided to take her to the hostel (Akata
Hall) where she could rest on a “manageable”
bed. This was around 7:00 p.m on Tuesday.
“One hour later, she was complaining of having
pains in both hands so we rushed her back to
the medical center,” another student told
NewsroomNG.
“They just checked her and gave her some drugs
again. But did not admit her into the sick ward.
She was again restricted to the lobby. They said
there were no available beds inside the sick
ward.
“Around 10:00 p.m, the school medics discharged
her again but this time she could neither stand
nor walk. That was the time they could have
admitted her or referred her elsewhere but they
didn’t. They bundled her into their bus
(ambulance) and drove her to her hostel. It was
there some friends bathed her.
“Around 11:00 p.m., she started complaining
again…this time bitterly,” another student said.
“So we returned her to the medical center. The
medics, this time, referred her to the Federal
Medical Center (FMC) in Ebute-Metta.
“They drove her there in their bus with a letter
from the chief doctor at Yabatech medical
center.
Angry YabaTech students wrecked the medical
center, and this bus…and filmed themselves in the
act.
“FMC officials told us they won’t attend to
Dazan until N35,000 admission fee and some
other registration fee are paid. Everything
totalled approximately N43,000.
“We pleaded with FMC to begin treating Dazan
as we would go out in search of the money. But
FMC refused and told us to take Dazan’s weak
body along on our fundraising hustle. I was
particularly shocked by their statement and body
language. They didn’t act like they had children
or were human for that matter.
“So we drove Dazan back to YabaTech to raise
the money. The chief doctor at YabaTech gave
us N10,000. Dazan’s fellowship (YabaTech
Celestial Fellowship) raised N25,000. Dazan’s
roommates raised N3,000.
“With N38,000 raised, we drove Dazan back to
FMC. A nurse from our medical center was with
us.
“On returning to FMC, we were instructed to
follow due process in paying the fees. FMC said
treatment would not commence until we
presented the receipts.
“At this point, Dazan started saying albeit faintly
‘I’m dying, please help me. I’m dying. I’m dying.
Help me’.”
“‘Shut up and keep quite my friend’, a doctor shut
her down.
“We split ourselves into two groups. Some went
to pay the admission fee. The other group went
to pay for drip and blood. Our nurse was with
FMC staff and Dazan.
Dazan was the only jewel her parents had. Her dad
suffered stroke two years ago and her mom is
reportedly ill.
“Before we returned, FMC had taken Dazan into
the ward and ran some tests on her. That’s what
they told us when we returned to present the
receipts. It was around 2:00 a.m. on Wednesday
now. We were told the test result was
‘paperwhite’.
“They said they couldn’t locate Dazan’s veins. So
there was no way they could pass any water or
blood into her bloodstream. In fact, they said she
had no single drop of blood left in her body. We
were wondering what this could mean.
“When the medics at FMC returned to Dazan’s
bed, they found her dead. That’s how this evil
system took our friend away. Just like that. They
said only the N600 money for card would be
refunded. The rest wasn’t refundable.
“FMC also refused to issue Dazan’s death
certificate because she didn’t stay up to 24
hours at the facility,” another student said.
“Dazan’s dead body was driven back to
YabaTech medical center some minutes after
2:00 a.m.
“However, YabaTech medics left her corpse in
the bus and failed to wash or dress her. She had
defecated on herself in her last moments. They
left her there, in her mess, till daybreak.
“It was around 8:00 a.m. when one of us who
didn’t follow us to FMC went looking for Dazan.
She thought her classmate was still alive.”
We spoke with that particular classmate and
here’s what she told us:
Arrest us if you can: YabaTech students wait
behind after authorities caught them vandalising
medical facility.
I didn’t know she had died. I went to the
medical center and searched the sick ward
but couldn’t find Dazan on any of the beds.
I didn’t know what to think. The medical
center’s bus was parked inside the
premises. On my way out, I noticed there
were flies in and around the ambulance.
There were lots of flies. That was when it
hit me. I moved closer to the bus and took
a look. Dazan was there, dead. She was
smelling. She was swollen. The nurses
didn’t take care of the body. When the
security officers knew what I had
discovered, they rushed towards me and
dragged me away. I was shocked.
Dazan (January 9, 1989 – February 10, 2016)
was the only child her parent had left, we were
told. Her parents live in Oko Afon, Badagry in
Lagos State. They are originally from Cotonou in
Benin Republic.
Dazan was immediate past sisters coordinator of
her campus fellowship.
Since Dazan’s father suffered stroke two years
ago, she’s had to fend for herself. Her mother is
also not feeling well, NewsroomNG gathered.
Dazan: Rest In Peace. Charity’s bi-lingual
classmates say this simple tribute will rest on the
lecture hall’s door for a long time.
“She struggled for the past two years to pay her
school fees and get ends meet…on her own,” one
of her close friends told NewsroomNG.
“Dazan is just two weeks from graduating from
this school and this tragedy took her from us.
“This is sad,” the friend said.
Dazan was, on Wednesday, buried at Atan
Cemetery near the University of Lagos. Her burial
was well attended by YabaTech students many
of whom barricaded University Road.
NewsroomNG gathered that armed police officers
and soldiers were on ground to maintain law and
order during the burial.
We’re not sure Dazan’s sick parents made it to
the burial. But an uncle was around, we heard. It
was the uncle who insisted her body be cleaned
up. YabaTech nurses had attempted wrapping
her up in her mess, with the clothe she was
wearing still on her body.
While Dazan was being buried, angry students
locked down the school and staged
demonstrations at YabaTech’s back gate, main
gate, administrative block and the medical
center.
They later vandalised the medical center and set
fire to it. But officials put out the fire on time.
The students said the medical center should be
tagged “YabaTech Paracetamol Medical Center.”
“Whatever you say is wrong with you, all they do
is give you paracetamol,” an angry student told
NewsroomNG.
“Yet we pay over N3,000 for medicals every
session…45,000 of us. Do the math. Yet, this
thing they call medical center is nothing but a
mess. It’s totally useless.”
“All they do is take the money while students
suffer and die like nobodies,” the student said.
Students later barricaded the road outside the
school’s back gate with bonfires from car tires.
As at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, vehicles were
being turned back.
Below is the vision statement of YabaTech
Medical Center.
