The Oba of Lagos, HRH Rilwan Akiolu has called on Nigerians not to fight or kill themselves for any politician.
The monarch also said that politicians always have a way of settling their differences behind closed doors.
Oba Akioulu said this on Tuesday, May 30, 2017, while speaking at the 60th birthday celebration of Mrs. Folashade Ashafa.
Mrs. Ashafa is the wife of Senator Gbenga Ashafa, the Senator representing Lagos East Senatorial District in the Senate.
According to a statement released by the Oba’s media team, the monarch said “His
Imperial Majesty said while people would take sides with politicians
and develop enmity and grudges for supporters of rival parties, the
politicians never take their differences personal and always know how to
reconcile behind closed doors.
“He,
therefore, advised all Nigerians to learn how to allow politicians
settle their differences without interference or unnecessary
sensationalisation of issues.
“Oba
Akiolu spoke glowingly of the woman and her husband, saying Senator
Gbenga Ashafa could only have achieved much because he had a good wife
who gave him peace and kept the home front solid.”
Recently,
the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu sparked some controversy when he
snubbed the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja II.
