On the supremacy War Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III started and now perpetuated by Oba Owoade, the incubent Alaafin Oyo. The Alaafin, the present one, has chosen an obnoxiously obsolete history to pursue an impossible hegemony in a modern world. That ambition is not only anachronistic; it is intellectually indefensible. Power today is no longer derived from myth inflated into supremacy, but from legitimacy rooted in verifiable history, cultural diplomacy, and moral authority. The case of the Ooni—past or present—is fundamentally different. Ile-Ife is not a political contrivance; it is the Source. It is the cradle from which the Yoruba civilization emerged and dispersed. Káàrọ̀ o jíire, or whatever identity we choose to carry, traces back to Ife. This is not a matter of palace propaganda or contemporary rivalry; it is history , supported not merely by oral narration, but by archaeology, artifacts, linguistics, carbon-dated findings, and global scholarly consensus. From ancient terracotta and bronze heads to the unmistakable sophistication of Ife art that stunned early European archaeologists, Ile-Ife stands as empirical evidence of origin, not aspiration. No amount of revisionism can erase that. While other Yoruba polities rose to military or administrative prominence at different historical moments, none can credibly rewrite origin into dominance. What is therefore troubling is not cultural pride, but cultural overreach, an attempt to weaponize selective history to impose hierarchy where history itself recognises plurality. Yoruba civilization thrived because it allowed multiple centers of power, innovation, and identity to coexist without denying the Source. To conflate later political strength with primordial supremacy is to misunderstand history and insult intelligence. Cultural leadership in the 21st century demands humility, learning, and diplomacy not arrogance anchored in obsolete claims. The future of Yoruba unity will not be built on forced hegemony, but on honest history and mutual respect. Adetunberu Oludotun, Asiwaju ,Apagun Potemole of the Source Copied |

Your thoughts please Let me tell you personal experience… My ex wife once suggested that we should start plans to have our own house. She said we should buy land first, then build later. At that time, we were living in a three bedroom flat. It was my duty to provide the house and I was doing that without stress. The place was good. We had two kids and space was not a problem at all. One day she told me she had seen a land close to where we lived. I said that was fine, but I was clear with her. I told her I did not have money to buy land at that time. She then said buying the land would not be a problem. That was when she told me she had some money from her job and she could pay for the land. Her idea was that she would buy the land and I would build later. I did not reject the idea. I told her I would think about it. After some time, I agreed. I said since you have the money now, let us go and see the land. She arranged everything. We went together and met the land owner directly. The land was affordable and after talking back and forth, we agreed on a price and paid. When it was time to do the papers, I told them to write only her full name. I told them my name should only be there as a witness. I did this on purpose. I knew her character. I told her clearly that it was her land. I said we were already living comfortably and there was no rush to own a house. I said I would help with building slowly, but the house would still be hers. Before all this, she had once asked me a question. She asked if I would move into a house owned by my wife. I told her clearly, no. So even when we agreed on this plan, in my mind I knew the truth. That house was not ours. It was hers, even if I spent money building it. She gave me all the land papers to keep. I kept them safe. Just one week later, we had an argument at home. In anger, my supposed wife said something I will never forget. She said do not worry, let us finish that house first and you will see how I will deal with you. I was not shocked. I already knew. I did not argue. I simply went to where I had kept the land papers safe, brought them out and handed them to her. I told her when you finish the house, put it on rent or use it for business. Do whatever you like with it. But don’t ever think we will move in there as family. That was it. I have seen many cases like this with other men too. This is not theory. This is lived experience. So I will say it again. Do not move into a woman’s house unless you are ready to lose your authority as a man. A woman is first a woman before she is anything else. Her nature, instincts, and needs come first, everything else comes after, especially when dealing with a man. Yes, a man should have authority at home as the leader. That authority cannot stand when you hand over your duty to your wife and call it being woke. 🤷♂️ - TheOdin11 Copied |

OBJ VS ALABI-ISAMA: SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT. In a telephone conversation, Alabi-Isama said that if he had read Obasanjo’s book before it was presented in Lagos last Tuesday, 9th December, he would have gone to the venue to challenge Obasanjo. He said: ‘’The tragedy of our civil war is painful, but that Obasanjo is publishing fiction about it is so outrageous. We should not allow this liar to get away with his self serving lies.’’ Here is Alabi-Isama’s response: “I’m gravely pained to be trading words with General Olusegun Obasanjo once again on the history of Nigeria-Biafra War. He is an elder and a former ruler who, ordinarily, should be treated with utmost respect. But how can one genuinely respect an old man who tells lies like a badly raised child? Obasanjo has obviously not recovered from the shock inflicted on him by my book, ”The Tragedy of Victory” in which I exposed the tissues of lies in his civil war memoir, ”My Command”. It is said that a lie may travel for a thousand miles, but it takes just one step of truth to catch up with it. I’m alive to stand up to him on the lies he has told on the war because I was a major participant in it. I kept records. With facts and figures at my finger tips, I have debunked Obasanjo’s lies in part three of my book, consisting of one hundred and sixty five pages, sixty nine pictures, thirteen military strategies and tactics, maps and documents. This was the same Obasanjo who published a fake Federal Government gazette that I was found guilty by the Army when I was never tried. I have proved that Obasanjo was an incompetent commander. I have proved that he was a wily and cunning fellow and an incredible opportunist who reaped where he did not sow. “I have proved that he was an ingrate and a hypocrite. More importantly, I have proved that he was a coward who ran away from the warfront to go and look for phantom ammunition. Rather than respond to my claims the way a gallant officer should, he has now responded like a motor-park tout, impugning my person and questioning my ethnic lineage. I never said I was from Ibadan. I only schooled there. General Obasanjo, this bolekaja style is so demeaning. You live in a glass house, so stop throwing stones. We, who have facts, pictures and documents, meticulously kept over the years, can tell the whole world one or two things about you. “Have a look at this attached picture at your wedding to your first wife Remi. When the photographer wanted to take the picture of the bride and groom and their parents, you said a few things about your parents which I still remember. It was only Remi’s mother that took the picture with us. Please, don’t mess with the memory of my dear parents. You know my mother, an Ilorin woman, and you also saw her at the warfront. She told me who my father was and she spoke his language and took me to his home town when he died. I went to primary school in Owu, so I know your family very well. You should be honest enough to tell the world the story of the man who was your father. I told you and wrote in my book that any person who does not appreciate the efforts of women has had no good mother. Please, don’t go beyond military tactics and strategies when dealing with me. “You say in volume three of your book ”My Watch” that I could be in bed with a woman while radioing my commander that I was in pursuit of rebels. Hundreds of thousands of those who have read my book, ”The Tragedy of Victory” - a six hundred and seventy-page book, complete with four hundred and fifty pictures and thirty nine military strategies and tactics, maps and documents - will call you a liar. I am so surprised and even embarrassed that a man of your status is still trading in gutter rumours. An elder with a filthy mind, a leader who lacks wisdom of age, does not deserve any respect. I have proved that he was an ingrate and a hypocrite. More importantly, I have proved that he was a coward who ran away from the warfront to go and look for phantom ammunition. Rather than respond to my claims the way a gallant officer should, he has now responded like a motor-park tout, impugning my person and questioning my ethnic lineage. I never said I was from Ibadan. I only schooled there. General Obasanjo, this bolekaja style is so demeaning. You live in a glass house, so, stop throwing stones. . “I’m the same Godwin Alabi- Isama that commanded the troops that liberated today’s Cross River State in thirty days of battle from Calabar to Obubra with no single casualty. This is the same Alabi- Isama that advanced 480 kilometres in 30 days from Calabar to Port Harcourt, liberating today’s Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Bayelsa States with 35,000 men and women with 15,000 on logistics, building roads and pontoons, with 8 men and 2 officers as my casualties. Obasanjo ordered the attack of Ohoba, a mere 24 miles from Owerri, in one hour of battle, more than 1,000 Nigerian soldiers were dead. “Obasanjo claims that when I once played squash with him, I cheated. This incredible liar has forgotten that there were witnesses to that game. Those witnesses are still alive, and they remember what really happened. I played squash with him once in my life. He could not make a point because I was not one of his sycophants who would allow him to win a game just to massage his huge ego. Look, General Obasanjo, there was no way you could have beaten me in any game. You do not have the physique and agility to do that. Apart from being a popular sportsman and soccer captain in Ibadan Boys High School, I was Sports Officer in the Nigerian Army, playing games from soccer to tennis, athletics, etc. You never played any games at school, let alone in the Army. If you had been diligent at your physical exercises as we were taught to be, your protruding tummy would not have become a butt of joke to many officers and men of the Army. “General Obasanjo may try but he cannot deny the evidence of the civil war tragic history. While he got over a thousand soldiers killed at Ohoba, myself, Alani Akinrinade and the brilliant and hardworking Pincer Team of Ola Oni, Iluyomade, Isemede, S.S. Tomoye, Salawu, Okwarobo, Sunny Tuoyo, etc did a better job at the Third Marine Commando. I have stated how it was done in ”The Tragedy of Victory,” by writing to set the Civil War records straight. Obasanjo says I only wanted to make money, that was why I wrote my book, after all I was broke. I thank Obasanjo for unwittingly giving credit that I did not steal money in the Army. I believe that this country, Nigeria ought to know by now all the crooks parading themselves as saints. Now I know why Obasanjo was surprised at my financial successes abroad and then sent his wife, Stella of blessed memory, to me. She was my guest in Houston, Texas for a week. We have video and pictures of the visit with witnesses like Jack Gonsoulin, Rod Anthony and Tom Britton. “I challenge Obasanjo to a debate on military tactics and strategies on the Nigerian Civil War. He wrote about his team. Who were they? George Innih went the wrong way to Arochukwu when Akinrinade needed reinforcement for the final battle to capture Uli Ihiala airport. Akinrinade told him that he would shoot George Innih anytime he showed up. Where was Obasanjo’s fake Apollo Battalion that operated behind enemy lines when he could not capture Ohoba? When Akinrinade called him that Biafra troops had surrendered to him and the Pincer team, Obasanjo, who was coming from a party, got lost looking for them, as he did not know where to go and did not know the way to Amichi. “I challenge Obasanjo to a debate on military tactics and strategies on the Nigerian Civil War. “I am not qualified to comment on Obasanjo’s political achievements, if any, for this country. The people and posterity will do that. There is no president in this country that he has not condemned. Haba! He always thinks that he has the preserve of knowledge on how to rule this country. Did the country move forward when he was Head of State or President? He destroyed the heart of the national security. We can see the result today. He destroyed education in many ways. We see the result today. He destroyed a lot of other things. "As for how he has treated his family shabbily, his wife and children have openly made their comments. Those comments are in public domain today and forever, even though Obasanjo cleverly brushes them aside in his current book. “I implore Obasanjo to stop lying before he dies.’’ Copied from Olasunkanmi Sukky Adeleke

DeltaBachelor:what is untimely? How do you know it is untimely? When it comes to death there is nothing called untimely. People only die when it's their time. That's why you see some people survived accidents while others don't. |
