Attack on palace is sacrilegious, will attract wrath of olodumare, says Oluwo

The Paramount Ruler of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has declared that attack on palace is sacrilegious and  a taboo, an action that may infer the wrath of  Olodumare,stressing that palace is House of God on earth, and attacking such has consequences

Penpushing reports that, he made this known in reaction to recent attacks on Akirun and Arees’ palaces, just as he expressed disappointment on the silence of Yoruba monarchs, saying an attack on one is an attack on all.

The flamboyant monarch described the attack as demonstration of shame and shallow reasoning perpetrated by uncultured, uncivilized individual taking laws into their hands, adding that it is only those who don’t pass through the four walls of classrooms doing such in this century

Penpushing further reports that, Oluwo in a statement through his press secretary, Alli Ibraheem appealed to the Nigerian Police Force to arrest the perpetrators of the criminal attacks to serve as deterrent to others and preserve traditional institution.

The royal father threatened to go after anyone who attack or attempt to attack any palace in Yorubaland, emphasising that, no reasonable person will take law into his hand,when there is government in place

“In a civilized society where the government and judiciary are respected, no reasonable person will take law into his or her hand. The recent attacks on both Akirun and Aree’s palaces are abominations,taboos and sacrilege. It is a collective attack on all the reasonable Yorubas, and mostly the traditional institution”,he stated

“It’s a shame on Yoruba sons and daughters with conscience who think setting the palace ablaze is best means to vent their anger. Civilized and reasonable ones will approach the court to seek redresss. The perpetrators have incurred generational curses on themselves”, the statement reads

“There have been palaces before the Church and Mosque in the time of David and Solomon. When did you see either Christian or Muslim burning the Church or Mosque while fighting over pastorship or Imam position? Pure, unadulterated palaces are the Houses of God on earth”

“It further saddened my heart that no traditional ruler is speaking against the immoral, uncultured and uncivilized attack on our sacred stools. The source, pride and heritage of every town is the palace. An attack on any stool is an attack on all stools”

“This is a great challenge to all traditional rulers most especially in Yorubas. If Mosque, Church are not attacked, why the palaces? The monarchs should check themselves. The pride of the stool has been decimated. The onus is us to lift the sacred throne above objects and reclaim our glory. Many monarchs will worship Orisha but still, hoodlums don’t fear the stool. We should return to God and clinch to Him. It is only by truly and purely representing GOD we bear His name we can be duly respected and protected”

“I call on the Nigerian Police Force to enforce search, arrest and prosecute perpetrators of Akirun and Aree palaces attackers. They must not go scot-free. They should be made to face the full hammer of law”, the monarch added

“Henceforth, I will personally run after attackers on our sacred thrones. Will they do that to the King of Saudi Arabia? Shame, shame and shame on that town/city that made it possible for thugs to burn their palace. A sacrilege has been committed”, he declared
