OLUWO CANVASSES CROWN FOR WIVES OF TRADITIONAL RULERS
He further argued that, in view of the fact that Oloris are women leader and Yoruba queen they should be allowed and seen as female kings, hence they are entitled to wearing of crowns. He prayed longetivity for the Alaafin.
“I’m saying I was sent by God to make things right in what is called kingship and leadership and to show how the past, our history, was. My wife and I wanted to honour an event. It’s a great event. And that day when we were about to go, it was revealed to me: ‘Look at your side’ and I looked at my side and saw my wife’.
“And it was said: ‘Look at her head; find a crown that you are not wearing and wear on her head the crown. That was how I gave her the crown. When God reveals something, I can’t refuse, I just have to do it, and the same way Abraham was told to take his son, when he was already over 100 years old. Yes and also when I put the crown, God revealed to me that our progenitor normally crowned his own wife.”
