Yorubas respect their elders indeed.

Tochi3:


..they are known to always insult their elders from.back to back..no respect for elders & traditional authority..

..they claim others don't respect their elders.. but see the small boy insulting & threatening an oba..

..when they feel they have power...snatched mandate..they insult everyone..Just thesame way they insult Nigerians because of a kingpin..

That is why they fear Oduduwa Republic. They will eat each other without mercy and that must come to pass.

Very vindictive, envious,evil and covetous people.

who recorded the call?

I think the kings themselves prefer to be slaves in their kingdom. Ever since Europeans over-threw them, non of them is thinking. They now convert to Christianity or Islam, and non of them speak an African language in their own kingdom.

The number is there for them to gather together in a conference of African kings to say that they don't like the type of government we operate on the African continent. Let's return government to the way our ancestors organized it before Europeans arrived the African continent. They'll get an overwhelming support of the African people but you don't hear that type of talk from any of them because non of them.

I have written about that on my bl0g but beyond that, there's nothing more I can do as I don't have the resources to go beyond just writing about it. In African terms, it should actually be the king that should threaten the legislator. I've dropped enough information to wake them up to their true selves but it appears the black man on the African continent is generally dead.

African kings, rise and take your place!

That's bad

What was done about the leaked audio that Obi was threatening a religious war during campaign?

Has anyone noticed that most of the cultures that preach unecessary respect and reverence for elders are in the third world today

Conference of Speakers Suspends Osun Speaker, Hon Prince Adewale Egbedun

- July 30, 2025

The Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures of Nigeria (CSSLN) has officially suspended the Speaker of the Osun State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Adewale Egbedun, due to what has been characterized as insubordination and abuse of office.

During a press conference held in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State, the Chairman of the Association, Rt. Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin, condemned Egbedun's conduct towards a respected royal figure, labeling it as inappropriate and uncultured. He remarked, "Our Association consists of well-cultured citizens of Nigeria, and we cannot allow one individual's actions to tarnish the image of our organization."

The chairman concluded the press conference by announcing the suspension of Rt. Hon. Adewale Egbedun from the association, effective until the resolution of a petition filed with the Deputy Inspector General of Police Zone XXI by the concerned royal father.

Forty, Foolish, and Dangerous!

By: Folorunso, Fatai Adisa

There was a time when the phrase “Not Too Young To Run” surged through the Nigerian consciousness like a prophetic hymn. It was sung with conviction, recited with the fervour of daily adhkār, laced with hope and youthful defiance. But in hindsight, perhaps a more honest mantra would have been “Not Too Young To Ruin.”

The proof is no longer abstract. A former Youth Governor now dances with the EFCC, accused of plundering billions meant for the people. And just yesterday, the Speaker of the Osun State House of Assembly, barely past his 40th birthday, was accused in a circulating voice recording of threatening a traditional ruler. His own king. His own town. A 70-year-old man. In his words, he barked at the king: “Ogun maa fi eje Kabiyesi wẹ.” He assured: “Won a gba ade l’ori Kabiyesi.” He cursed: “Eranko lasan-lasan ni Kabiyesi.” He declared: “Ko ni da fun Kabiyesi t’iran-t’iran.” And many more missile-like utterances too caustic to repeat here.

I listened. And what poured from that tape was not just disgrace; it was a desecration. A violent evisceration of the codes that govern respect, culture, and public decorum. His language seethed with arrogance, soaked in the bile of impunity. The monarch, by reports, fled to Lagos for safety. Imagine that, a king exiled by a boy drunk on borrowed power.

Now pause. Think. If the third most powerful man in a state can, without hesitation, vow to unleash thugs on a traditional ruler, to slap him, to throw him into detention without cause, what then is the fate of the ordinary Osun citizen? When lawmakers morph into gang leaders, what scaffold remains to hold justice upright? When those entrusted with the gavel trade it for a whip, democracy loses its voice, and tyranny dons youthful skin.

A youth untamed is chaos in motion. Like a trigger-happy policeman with an AK-47, he is dangerous, directionless, and devastating. Compare that to George Finch, a 19-year-old who now leads Warwickshire County Council in the UK, managing a £2 billion budget. You would expect recklessness. Instead, you meet composure, seriousness, and public spirit. Traits sorely missing in our own domestically-grown, forty-year-old ‘youths’.

The English say, “A fool at 40 is a fool forever.” Let us hope, for the dignity of Osun and the soul of governance, that the Speaker does not become a living monument to that proverb.

Leaked Audio Allegedly Captures Osun Speaker, Wale Egbedun Threatening Traditional Ruler(Oba Alasi of Asi) in Osun State.

Really this is not too young to rule. Power is transient 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Monarch petitions IGP over alleged threat to life by Osun Speaker

The Alasi of Asi in Odo-Otin Local Government Area of Osun State, Oba Isaac Oyewale, has petitioned the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, over an alleged threat to his life by the Speaker of the Osun State House of Assembly, Hon. Adewale Egbedun.

A leaked telephone conversation lasting about three minutes, allegedly between Speaker Egbedun and a family member of the monarch, has gone viral on social media.

In the audio, the Speaker, speaking in Yoruba, was heard hurling insults at the traditional ruler and threatening physical assault should the monarch attempt to enter his domain.

In the recording, the Speaker reportedly said, “This is Speaker Egbedun on the line. I want you to tell him, it seems the king is cursed. I was attacked, and he was talking rubbish. I’ve been avoiding him. If he comes to Asi, I’ll make sure he is beaten, his crown removed, and he is sent to Ilesa. If he is near you, let him hear this. What is my offence? He keeps disrespecting me and I’ve kept quiet. If he values his life, he should not come to Asi today.”

Reacting to the threat, Oba Isaac Oyewale said the incident stemmed from a minor accident involving a car belonging to one of his subjects and a vehicle in the Speaker’s convoy.

According to the monarch, “One of my subjects’ cars hit a vehicle belonging to the Speaker. Despite our pleas, the driver was arrested and taken to Ilesa, and later transferred to Osogbo. I got involved to intervene because both the Speaker and the individual are my subjects. But Egbedun has been misusing his power. He claimed I orchestrated an attack on him, which is false.”

The monarch further stated, “I have petitioned the Inspector General of Police, and I’m aware that action has been initiated. Nonetheless, my life is under threat. He even threatened to bathe me in my own blood. The abuse of power by Speaker Egbedun must be urgently addressed.”

When contacted for his reaction, Speaker Adewale Egbedun briefly said, “He sent thugs to attack me. You can talk to my Chief Press Secretary; he will give you the full details of what happened.”
