The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has said he owed nobody any apology for kneeling to worship the almighty God during the thanksgiving service held in his honour at the Paul’s Anglican Church, Ife, after his coronation.
The Ooni, said this in statement made available to our correspondent in Osogbo on Thursday by the Director of  Communication and Public Affairs, Ooni’s Palace, Ile Ife, Mr.  Moses Olafare.
The monarch spoke in reaction to criticisims against him by an online medium Newspunch (Not The Punch) that he knelt down to worship God during the church service.
Ogunwusi said it was wrong to equate any king  no matter his status with the almighty God  who created the heavens and the earth, saying the comment was an attempt to embarrass the throne.
Ogunwusi  said since the almighty God is not Ooni or any king’s mate he would not stop to worship and revere him because it was God who enthroned him.
The statement read, ” It is an unacceptable sacrilege to equate Ooni’risa or other king to the almighty God. God Is the creator of mankind and it is God that made it possible for the enthronment of any king.
“The attention of Ile Oodua  has been drawn to a publication released Wednesday 16th 2015 by an online medium known as NEWSPUNCH in which His Imperial Majesty, Ooni’risa & Arole Oodua Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi(OjajaII) was crtisised for bowing to God.
“God remains the highest, the king of kings  who has kept all kings  alive and has made it possible for me to be crowned as the  king  of the source of Yoruba civilisation.
“I have no  regrets whatsoever for kneeling down to exalt the almighty God who did not only create me,  but also kept me alive, saw me through all the storms in my,  life-journey and eventually crowned me as the custodian  of Oodua race.
“This act of equating me to God of gods of king of kings  and the sole owner of the universe is a wicked sacrilege planned to embarrass the throne. My emergence as Oba has been made possible only by the almighty Olodumare to whom I remain eternally grateful.”

I will say "This is a king that knows his king"

NanaAmofah:
Thanks a lot neutrotoba I am very greatfull.
Now does the Quran teach that Muslims should not be friends with non muslims

Yes!

neutrotoba:
Surah (4:89) Al-Maidah
They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and  thus be on the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their  ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them; and (in any case) take no friends or helpers from their rank.

ShaheedBinAliyu:
laughing.. you know absolutely nothing about Christianity or Jesus.. your loss if you don't believe me

Nooo! I think you are the one that obviously knows nothing here.

ShaheedBinAliyu:
that answer is in Bible.. Bible said that the spirit of truth coming after Jesus Christ is an unlettered person...


you ask who wrote Quran since he's unlettered.. his followers did..

Do you then believe mohameds's followers instead of mohamed himself? Oops!

Right back at you, hun!

ShaheedBinAliyu:
[s]God? God is an interpretation of English from another language.. Eaosha Maksheena called God Allaha.. Eaosha Maksheena practiced Islam.. he believed that there's just only one God which is Allaha. and he performed salat five times a day.. Bible testified to that [/s]

Bla!bla!bla! Goes another ignorant jihadist on the loose.

U Still couldn't figure out my last comment...how could you tell someone to revert to Islam instead of God, do you worship islam or God?

ShaheedBinAliyu:
you are not answering my question but I will answer your question.. who wrote Cor chapter in Bible... Paul did.. Paul that never see or know Jesus.. yet you believe his every word about Jesus

Mohamed was not literate, meaning he didnt pen down the quran himself, so who wrote the quran you so much believed in too?

ShaheedBinAliyu:
laughing... your loss bro.. keep following fake religion.. better revert to Islam and save yourself from hell fire

I thought you will say "better revert to God and save yourself from hellfire"

You're the lost one here!

ShaheedBinAliyu:
talking of Christ... I know much about him.. do you? can you tell me his real name and language he spoke when he was alive?

Even my little nephew wont ask such immature questions..way too childish and stu.pid for u to still be asking such questions on NL.

luv2talk:
The reason for the Allah's commandment is for muslim to be pious and conscious of Allah. God wants the rich man to fast so that he will know how it feel to be hungry. Hence, he might be able to help the poor.

Are u giving me your personal opinion as reason or that of Allah?

Kindly back it up with quranic verses

ShaheedBinAliyu:
am proudly a Muslim and I wanna show you that Islam is the only religion in this world.. prove it to me and your religion stands

Of course the only religion instituted by satan himself.

You worship what you dont know but we worship what we know.

Xiadnat:

Happy hanukkah my dear!..is been a while

Ladies, do not make excuses and say you didn’t know when enough was enough.

Here are 4 red flags that should give you the key to exit the relationship, as soon as you can.

1. He cheats

Many people will say this point is debatable because lots of couples who have fidelity issues repair their relationship and end up better than where they were pre-cheating. But it’s not the act of cheating that’s the deal-breaker here; it’s the disrespect, broken trust and significant risk to your health. (Hello, STDS!) With all the risks that hang in the balance for just a tiny bit of pleasure, it’s entirely inconsiderate and selfish when a man cheats on you. Do you want someone who puts his wants before your needs, like security and trust? You should not, which is why you have to say BYE to cheating men.

2. He gets violent, even if he doesn’t hit you

You may think this is a no-brainer but honestly it isn’t. Most women I know who’ve been in abusive relationships have immense strength, only to shut down in the presence of her partner’s anger and violence. No healthy relationship can be built off a foundation of fear because you never know when his actions may escalate.

3. He doesn’t claim or proclaim you

Many women will spend time in limbo-like relationships with guys who won’t give them the girlfriend title. Here’s the truth: If you’ve been dating a man for longer than six to nine months and he hasn’t made you an official part of his life, it’s time to MOVE ON. Stop making excuses for why things aren’t progressing to the next level; you’ll only waste time and your time is worth more than that. Don’t settle for less because you don’t want a man who makes you a bargain-bin find. If he knows your worth, he’ll claim and proclaim you and there will be few conversations about how ‘he isn’t ready.’

4. He suffers from addiction

There are plenty of honor badges to be earned by standing by your man when he’s fallen on hard times. But CAUTION if you stick with a man fighting demons, namely addiction. Addiction can range from less-severe, like cigarettes, to major issues such as drug, alcohol, pornography and sex. Someone who suffers from an addiction will do anything – and I mean anything – to get their fix, even at the expense of those they love. So unless you’d like to be second to whatever vices he has, it may be time to ‘leave smoke.

word is enough for the wise...

Derailers oya!

Tell us something we've not heard before?

luv2talk:
madam. we dont fast for fasting sake or hunger strike, we fast based on the commandment of Allah from the Glorious Quran. Ramadan is more of islamic version of xmas. Its a 9th month in islamic calanda and widely recognized across muslim world. So, get ur facts right

And what is the reason for this Allah's commandment?

When dey say islam is peace is like speaking from both sides of the mouth.
