PROTEST IN ILE-IFE OVER APPOINTMENT OF NEW OBALUFE



-           For a second time, members of the Aga Orunto family have staged a peaceful protest to the Ooni of Ife Palace, over the appointment of Comrade Idowu Olaniyi Adediwura as the new Obalufe.

-          To register their displeasure on the choice of the new Obalufe, protesters last Thursday besieged the Ooni’s palace, hours before the official announcement.
-          Yesterday’s protesters alleged that the candidate was imposed, and demanded a reversal of the appointment.
-          According to them, the Ooni made a wrong decision not to have appointed someone from Aga Orunto family, to be his second in command.
CULLED FROM VANGUARD
