The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, is currently making headlines after a video of him being publicly embarrassed by Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke surface online.
In the viral clip, the two were at an event when the Ooni stood up to greet the Governor. He stretched his hand to Governor Adeleke who snubbed him to greet others.
The video has left many embarrassed for the monarch, while others defended Adeleke’s action, noting how the King isn’t supposed to shake hands with anyone.
One Ade Tiwale wrote, “When you make yourself too accessible. Dem don born anybody well to shake the Oba of Benin like dis? Or Olu of Warri
One Dressers Dream wrote, “As a King in Yoruba land, know your worth. Don’t let politics ridicule you. The insults to King in Yoruba land are becoming too much lately
One Olawas Electrical wrote, “The Ooni of Ife doesn’t give handshake, he is only calling his attention by using his hand so when Adeleke will turn back he thought he his giving him and shake.
One Mide Cup Of Tee wrote, “Why did the Ooni get up to greet anybody in the first place
One Tosin My wrote, “This is the height of nonsense, this Ooni sef is doing too much. A respected King should not be seen everywhere. It’s becoming alarming
One Dav Nwogu wrote, “All I see is respect. He doesn’t wanna shake hands with the king
One Frankigh wrote, “This Ooni should be taught how to carry himself in a manner that befits the prestigious office he occupies. How can a revered traditional ruler like him be standing up to shake anyone?”.
This isn’t the first time, such an incident is happening.
Months back, Lagos State Park and Garages Chairman, MC Oluomo had publicly embarrassed Shina Peller over politics.
In the video, Shina Peller went to greet the former NURTW boss and he shunned him and issued him a warning not to greet him.
Recall that while MC Oluomo supported Bola Ahmed Tinubu during the election, Shina Peller was against his appointment.
The video had caused a stir on the internet as many dragged him for his behavior which they termed ‘childish’.
His son, King Westt while reacting to it, applauded his father for snubbing the Quilox boss. He claimed that Shina Peller betrayed his father and yet wanted to exchange pleasantries with him.
In another post, he stated that his family wouldn’t tolerate fake love.
