- The Oluwo of Iwo, in a thunderous and emotionally charged address to his people, delivered an unrelenting condemnation of the rising tide of ritual killings that have cast a dark shadow over Yoruba land.
- His words, heavy with anger and profound disappointment, were aimed squarely at the monarchs and royal chiefs of Ekiti and Ilorin, whom he accused of orchestrating these grotesque acts of bloodshed under the guise of tradition and power..
The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi, in a volcanic and emotionally charged viral video, delivered an unfiltered and scathing rebuke of the ritual killings he claims have become a dark stain on Yoruba land.
Speaking with the authority of a custodian of culture and the fury of a man deeply aggrieved, he accused fellow monarchs and royal chiefs of perpetrating these heinous acts under the guise of power preservation and spiritual renewal.
With his voice quaking with righteous indignation, the Oluwo, in viral video, pointed to regions like Ekiti and Ilorin, singling them out as hotbeds of these gruesome atrocities.
He described a chilling pattern where lives are sacrificed in secret rituals, not for the good of the community but to satisfy the insatiable greed of corrupt rulers seeking to elongate their reigns and amass occult power.
Oba Akanbi did not stop at accusations; he unleashed a torrent of heavy curses upon those involved. His tone turned fiery as he invoked the wrath of the ancestors and the divine forces of Yoruba cosmology, calling for unrelenting justice against any monarch or royal chief complicit in these crimes.
But his message was not without a glimmer of hope. In an extraordinary display of both compassion and firmness, the Oluwo extended a lifeline to those willing to repent. He prayed fervently for the redemption of anyone who would abandon these vile practices, asked for divine mercy to cleanse their souls and restore their humanity.
