Traditional Ruler Writes Dapo Abiodun Over TASUED Crises

 

 

The traditional ruler, through his solicitor, G.T. Adeiye ESQ noted that cultism has been the order of the day and it’s being perpetrated by some of the students of TASUED at Imaweje and at other host communities which according to him has gotten to a disturbing stage.

 

 

 

 

 

The solicitor added that, “an indigene of the community was sitting with his father outside their house at Imaweje and 3 students were passing by, this happened on the 26th day of May, 2023 and the fellow in question informed his father that the 3 Students are part of those terrorizing him to join their cult and the father approached them to find out why they are trying to initiate his Son and somehow the altercation escalated into a brawl and one of the 3 Students drew out a matchet and struck the father but the cutlass did not have an effect on him and they turned to the son who reported them and cut him on his hand and fingers while trying to defend his head as we speak the boy is still at the hospital and while this was on, they called our client who rushed to the place and our client in turn called the D.P.O. Omu Police station who sent his men immediately and two out of those two boys were later arrested and taken away by the Police.

 

 

“Our Client said on the following day which is 27th May, 2023, he went to Ijebu-Ode to inform the community lawyer of the happenings at his domain and it was while he was there that he received a call back home that one of the boys has been apprehended by the Local Vigilante, V.S.O, that our Client should be coming and he told them that he is at Ijebu-Ode and thereafter called the D.P.O. Omu Police Station again who dispatched his men to the scene and our client too proceeded back home and he and the Police got there at almost the same time and he asked the Police take the fellow apprehended away but the Police said the fellow looked exhausted that he should first be given medical attention and our client directed that the fellow be taken to the hospital but before they could get to the hospital the Student gave up the ghost and our client informed the police immediately.

“Our Client and other people in the community were enveloped with fear as the night drew nearer, but the worst happened in the night when our client’s house and those of other four notable people in the community were set ablaze by the Students of TASUED and our client ran for his dear life and had since reported to the Police at the State Command at Eleweran and unfortunately our Client is being detained and possibly to be arraigned for murder which he is innocent of.

“We are not out to pervade Justice by this our write up and pray that the culprit are found and brought to Justice but to also make sure that the innocent do not suffer unjustly.

“We commiserate with the family of the deceased students and pray that God give them the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss, we feel their pain and call on the Police to release our client on administrative bail pending the outcome of their investigation and anyone found culpable should be punished in accordance with the Law.

Alaketu-Designate Visits Ooni of Ife, Secures Royal Blessing for Kingship

Alaketu-Designate Visits Ooni of Ife, Secures Royal Blessing for Kingship

Alaketu-Designate Visits Ooni of Ife, Secures Royal Blessing for Kingship

The Alaketu-designate of Ketu Land in Epe Local Government Area of Lagos State, Prince Adekoya Babajide Adefowora, on Wednesday, paid a historic visit to the Ooni of Ife, Arole Oduduwa Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, at his palace in Ile-Ife.

The visit, which is a significant step in his journey to the throne, was marked by the royal father’s blessings and prayers for a peaceful and prosperous reign.

This comes after the formal presentation of Prince Adefowora, who hails from the Ateshimara Ruling House, by the traditional authorities of Ketu Land on Tuesday, February 18, 2025.

His visit underscores the deep-rooted ancestral ties between Ketu Land and Ile-Ife, reaffirming the sacred traditions that bind Yoruba monarchs to their spiritual and historical source.

Prince Adefowora was accompanied to the Ooni’s palace by prominent members of his family, high-ranking chiefs, and kingmakers from Ketu Land, all of whom played key roles in his selection and endorsement as the next Alaketu.

Speaking at the palace, Prince Adefowora described his visit as a homecoming and an essential part of his ascension process.
have come home to pay homage to my father, the Ooni of Ife. My deep love for my people motivated me to accept the call to the throne of Ketu. This journey is not just about me; it is about upholding our rich heritage and leading my people towards greater progress,” he said.

Addressing controversies surrounding his ascension, he condemned attempts by some individuals to manipulate the process with fraudulent documents.

I am aware of certain fraudulent documents being submitted by some individuals to the authorities. I use this opportunity to urge them to desist from such illegal activities. The Supreme Court has already affirmed my right to the throne, and I call on the government to thoroughly investigate this matter. It is crucial for everyone to respect the rule of law and uphold due process,” he stated.

On the delay in filling the Alaketu throne after the demise of the previous ruler, Prince Adefowora explained that Yoruba tradition necessitates a period of transition.

“In Yoruba tradition, when a king joins his ancestors, a period of interregnum is observed before selecting a successor. This allows the community time to reflect, ensure stability, and make the right choice for the future. My people made their choice long ago, and today, they have formally presented me to our ancestral father, the Ooni of Ife. I am honored to have received Kabiyesi’s blessings,” he added.

In his response, the Ooni of Ife congratulated Prince Adefowora on his journey to the throne and prayed for a successful reign filled with peace, wisdom, and development for Ketu Land.

You are about to embark on a sacred duty, one that requires wisdom, patience, and commitment to the welfare of your people. I pray that your reign brings prosperity, unity, and growth to Ketu Land. May the ancestors guide you, and may your leadership be marked by justice and progress,” the Ooni prayed.

Unity in Generosity : Prophet Genesis Unites Faiths at Ibafo Ramadan Lecture (See Video) – Alhaji Arems

Unity in Generosity : Prophet Genesis Unites Faiths at Ibafo Ramadan Lecture (See Video) – Alhaji Arems

 

On March 12, 2025, during a spirited Ramadan lecture in Ibafo, Prophet Genesis once again demonstrated that faith and generosity know no boundaries. In a moment captured on video that has since resonated with audiences far and wide, the Prophet called an elderly woman to the stage. With warmth and conviction, he declared, “Mama, I’m the one people have blessed with this cash – open up your bag, and you can as well get extra nylon bags – take it all.” He went on to reassure her that his personal driver and security team would ensure she got home safely, eliminating any worries about carrying the money.

The heartfelt gesture was part of a lecture themed “Truthfulness brings success,” a mantra that clearly underpins Prophet Genesis’ approach to ministry. Notably, he reiterated that his annual Ramadan gatherings are unique in that he never collects money. According to the Prophet, God has made it clear that accepting money on these occasions would sever his divine connection—a conviction that has guided his practice for years.

What makes this event particularly striking is its interfaith significance. Held during Ramadan—a time when millions of Muslims around the world are fasting—the lecture underscored Prophet Genesis’ commitment to inclusivity. His actions sent a powerful message that genuine compassion and kindness transcend religious labels, uniting communities in shared celebration and mutual respect.

In a world often divided by differences, Prophet Genesis’ demonstration of unconditional generosity and his call for truthfulness serve as a reminder of the unifying power of faith and goodwill.
