Sunday Igboho's comment on Ooni.
Well, they say you don't speak that way to revered elders. But we have witnessed in this country where revered mortals have been the biggest betrayers of their subjects. And they hate it when a supposed commoner dare speak truth to them. Nnamdi

Kanu's travails stem from his bold in-ur-face truth to powers. Common citizens understood him - he spoke things they had no courage to speak - he spoke their feelings. That's the reason for the cult-like following he has. Political and traditional leaders of the east felt
threatened. How dare him! His rejection by the political Elite is not because he spoke falsehood, but because he dared speak ill of them - and millions lined up behind him. Should the struggle for Biafra come to fruition Nnamdi becomes the leader of the country. Should have been
them. He ought to have bowed to the political Elite and then take the back seat. For not doing so he deserves death.
Sunday Igboho spoke. Is he assuming himself to be the leading voice of the Yoruba nation? So he must be silenced. Otherwise what wrong did he speak? Are
Sunday Igboho spoke. Is he assuming himself to be the leading voice of the Yoruba nation? So he must be silenced. Otherwise what wrong did he speak? Are
traditional rulers not a sellout in this country? One in Lagos went as far as threatening to drown Igbos in the Lagoon over political issues. Is that one a traditional ruler? Where were traditional rulers when foreign Fulani terrorists took over their ancestral lands and are
raping their women, kidnapping their noble men and robbing their communities? How have they tried to rid their lands of killer herdsmen? Is the exalted stool of traditional rulers now for political gains - for striking sellout deals with the enemies of our land? So they receive
money from government and allow destructive elements and policies within their domain. Sunday Igboho may have apologized. But that wouldn't be because he spoke untrue. He wants peace to reign. Wisdom requires that you get done with one battle before you engage another. When the
time comes even traditional rulers will scamper away into exile. They're larger part of our problems.
