The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi has disclosed that he cautioned Sunday Adeyemo a.k.a Sunday Igboho over his agitation for the Yoruba Nation to no avail.
In an interview with BBC Yoruba, the monarch said that Igboho got carried away by praises of those that were not “solidly behind him.”
Ooni stated further that those allegedly insulted by Igboho during his agitations had forgiven him.
“Many people advised him wrongly. He listened to them. He started abusing everyone, including monarchs.

“After I left President Muhammadu Buhari’s place, I called on monarchs and elders of Yoruba land for a meeting to advise Igboho to exercise patience but he got carried away by the praises of those who were not even solidly behind him
“He hurled so many bad words but he is still our son. God owns forgiveness. We’ve forgiven him. If he had listened, he wouldn’t have found himself in his current travail,” Ooni said.
