“Oduduwa is the First Crowned King in the World” – Ooni of Ife Declares on Ilaji FM

History came alive on Saturday as the Ooni of Ife, His Imperial Majesty, Oba Babatunde Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja II, took to the airwaves of Ilaji 91.9 FM with a royal revelation – Oduduwa, the first Ooni of Ife, is the very first crowned king in the entire world! 🌍👑

The revered monarch described the throne of Ile-Ife as the origin of kingship, not just in Yorubaland, but globally. According to him, “The first Ooni, Oduduwa, was not only a leader but the first crowned king in the history of mankind.”

During the special broadcast, Kabiyesi showered praises on the Okanlomo of Yorubaland, Chief Jubril Dotun Sanusi, for founding Ilaji Radio. He offered royal blessings, praying for the station to soar and become a beacon for Yoruba culture, heritage, and global influence.

When asked why he holds Ibadan so dear, the Ooni’s response was heartfelt: “Ibadan is my root. The first Ojaja was once a warlord in Ibadan. Lagelu, who founded Ibadan, came from Ile-Ife and was originally Agelu.”

The broadcast didn’t just inform—it inspired. Listeners described it as a masterclass in history, heritage, and the unbreakable bond between Ife and Ibadan. With Ilaji FM as the voice, Yoruba history is not only being preserved but also amplified for generations to come.

Ask Ooni the year he was crowned the first king in the world he will change the topic

Yeye talk

If they ask him to mention the time and year where this was recorded now, he’ll say it’s divine.

Yoruba has no recorded history. It was passed down orally and some stories could have been either watered down or exaggerated.

Even those with recorded histories are questioned. Talk more of those with oral folklores.

In 2005, UNESCO designated Ifá as a "Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity".

Some scholars, like Afolayan and Oyebade, place his arrival in Yorubaland around the 7th, 10th, or 11th centuries CE.. "
