Yoruba traditional rulers in  North Central Nigeria have pledged their loyalty to the ancient throne of Oduduwa, Ile-Ife, the cradle of Yoruba nation.

The monarchs, from Kogi and Kwara states led by the Obaro of Kabba, Oba Dele Owoniyi, while on a courtesy visit to the Arole, Oodua, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi in Ile-Ife at the weekend commended Ooni Ogunwusi for giving all descendants of Oduduwa an enviable identity and real sense of belonging anywhere in the world.

A statement by the director of media and public affairs at Ooni’s palace, Otunba Moses Olafare, stated that Oba Obaro, who had earlier presented the new Elulu of Mopa, Oba (Dr.) Muyiwa Ibeun to Ooni, described Ile-Ife as the undisputed home of all Yoruba people, particularly those of Okun origin.

His words: “Kabiyesi, we have a lot of work to do for our people regarding where we are in modern Nigeria. There are real issues of development deficit, which I am sure we can overcome with your might and influence.

Also, the Elejuku of Ejuku explained that most children of Oduduwa of Okun origin are at great disadvantage as they are often regarded as second or third Yoruba.

“Kabiyesi Ooni, we are tired of being referred to as lesser Yoruba because of our location. Those who demarcated us in those days did not consult us, and that is why they did not factor in our peculiarities.

Responding, Ooni Ogunwusi, chairman of the Southern Nigeria Traditional Rulers Council (SNTRC), explained that the most important thing is for Okun Yorubas to know and note that they are well appreciated by their kinsmen in the western part of the country.
