“Odu-Ifa Established Iwo Kingdom , Not Qu’ran, Go To Saudi ” Elebuibon Tells Oluwo
The Araba of Osogbo , Ifayemi Elebuibon has reacted to the stance of Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi , the Oluwo of Iwo Kingdom that Yoruba Monarchs should refrain from Orisa religion.
According to Araba Ifayemi Elebuibon , Oluwo should relocate to Saudi Arabia where Quran established their land ” Odu-Ifa established Iwo Kingdom ” He said
“Odu Ifa established Iwo town, not Qu’ran. At best, Oluwo can go to Saudi Arabia and be king there and not in Yorubaland. He is misinterpreting Yoruba monarchy.” – Says Araba Elebuibon
Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi who spoke in Iwo on Wednesday at the annual Olodumare Day celebration, where several musical groups and individuals sang praises to God.
The monarch insisted that any king who is fetishistic is not representing God and urged those among them who wanted to engage in idolatry to abdicate the throne and become traditionalists.
He said, “Other Yoruba kings must come in tandem with this because they can’t be God’s representatives and still worship other gods.
God is the real king, and the earthly king who is now fetish is not representing God well. Any king who worships other gods or is a fetishist should abdicate the throne and become an herbalist. There is no deity that is called Kabiyesi.”
Asked his views about the next general elections as apprehension heightens among Nigerians, Oba Akanbi, who said issues regarding the next poll should be laid before God, urged Nigerians to be patient.
However, when contacted for reaction, renowned Osogbo-based Ifa priest, the Araba Awo of Osogbo, Ifayemi Elebuibon said the monarch was wrongly interpreting Yoruba monarchy.
He said, “Odu Ifa established Iwo town, not a Qu’ran. At best, Oluwo can go to Saudi Arabia and be king there and not in Yorubaland. He is misinterpreting Yoruba monarchy.”
