The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, has re-affirmed the family ties between Yoruba and Igbo nations, saying the two ethnic groups are inseparable members of the same family.
Ooni said: “I am so happy to have the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Lagos State President here as part of this empowerment initiative. “This is your root. I said it recently that some of our Yoruba kinsmen with ignorance of our history came out with nugatory statements of my position on the family ties between Yoruba and Igbo people. We have to say the truth and the truth must set us all free, we are blood brothers. We should be inseparable. Please feel at home in Yorubaland and respect your Yoruba brothers and sisters too.
“There were different clans of Igbo that left Ife to establish their kingdoms. One of them rebelled back and started coming to cause mayhem in Ife and that is the Olugbo Kingdom. We should all come together and forget what happened in the past.”
Talk is cheap. We know where y'all have brotherhood ties with.
He will say the same when that midgets elrufai visit him
Ooni is very correct.
An encouraging word of promoting peace between the co ethnics by his majesty
