Alaafin And Ooni Could Be Under A Spell – Traditional Worshippers

The President of the Traditional Worshippers Association, Oluseyi Atanda, has suggested that the Alaafin of Oyo and the Ooni of Ife may be under a spell, as their repeated clashes indicate a possible spiritual influence. The recent disagreement arose when the Ooni conferred a title on a businessman, which the Alaafin criticized.

Atanda expressed concern over the public outbursts between the two prominent Yoruba monarchs and advised caution. He emphasized the need for a ritual to settle the dispute and urged both sides to avoid unnecessary quarrels.

When asked about the alleged spell affecting the monarchs, Atanda did not provide further details. The situation highlights the importance of maintaining peace and unity among traditional rulers in Yorubaland.
