Chieftancy Controversy;
OLUWO ENGAGES IN SODOMY, DRINKS TO STUPOR… HE CANT REMOVE ME!
– Chief Abiola Ogundokun
Elder statesman and former Publicity Secretary of the defunct National Party of Nigeria (NPN), High Chief Abiola Ogundokun has accused Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi Adewale of sodomy and other social vices, even as he challenged him to issue him a letter for the revocation of his titles if the monarch has the authority to do so.
This followed a pronouncement made by Oba Adewale in his palace on Sunday, announcing the revocation of chieftaincy title of Basorun Musulumi of Iwo Land, membership of Board of Trustees of Iwo Central Mosque, and other traditional titles accorded him in the land, due to what he termed” unruly behaviours of Chief Ogundokun, which portrays Iwo negatively.”
Meanwhile, Ogundokun in his reaction to the pronouncement described Oluwo as traditional deviant, instead of a harbinger of tradition and cultural norms, saying the king has totally lost touch with reality and Yoruba etiquette.
Ogundokun explained that the remote cause of his disagreement with Oluwo was his forbidden habits that portend serious danger to Iwo land and its people, coupled with the inflammatory comments, and false claim of superiority over Ooni of Ife and Alaafin of Oyo.
“Despite my robust financial and moral support for Oluwo since inception of his emergence, Oluwo turned against me when I started complaining of his drinking habit, in which he drinks to stupor in most cases, coupled with his abominable act of sodomy and commercialisation of Iwo chieftaincy titles, with intent to defraud.
” I have convincing evidence of how he made attempt to defy a young man by the name Rondorondo, who he blackmailed when the fellow refused to join him in his dirty act, aside millions of naira he collected from people with a promise to give them chieftaincy titles.
“Of course, the immediate cause of his bad blood against me was what happened at a wedding in Iwo on Saturday, where he disgraced Iwo land in the presence of many prominent Nigerians and revered Islamic clerics.
” Oluwo, in the presence of President -general of leagues of Imams and Alfas, Alhaji Jamiu Kewulere, and Imams from Ekiti, Oyo, Osun, and Ondo, to the extent that he wrestled microphone from them when they cautioned him against inflammatory comment he was making at the event.
“I am not surprise he lied thereafter that I marched him where he was sitting, Oluwo has been a blantant lie, and unstable character, that was exactly how he deceived Iwo people that he practised Islam, meanwhile he is a certified pagan,” Ogundokun said.
The front line politician added that the pronouncement of Oba Adewale was laughable, arguing that it is only the Imam of Iwo that has the requisite power to remove him as the Basorun Musulumi, while his title of Otun Balogun of Iwo land remains sacrosanct through a letter of conferment.
According to him, ” I remain myself, High Chief Abiola Ogundokun, the Basorun Musulumi of Iwo land, the Otun Balogun of Iwo land, the Aare-ago of Iwo-oke, the Seriki of Iba, the Apesin of Erin-osun, and the Jagun pote of the source, Jagun of Ajagunla-ase.
“Oluwo should go and face the moral burden of the criminal act levelled against him by Oluwo-oke, which he vigorously begged me to intervene and beg Oluwo-oke to withdraw, even with the help of former President Olusegun Obasanjo at my instance.
“He has a rough and undignified pedigree, with thuggery running in his family’s blood, his father, Kola Akanbi was the one who led thugs to kill and maim opposition members in Iwo, during the second republic, and you can see that trait in him.
“It should be noted that I have letter appointing me as Obanla of Iwo Land, written and signed by Oluwo speaks volume of his deceptive and dishonest way of life, and a contradiction of sort,” Ogundokun stressed.
