The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdurasheed Adewale Akanbi, has been shown to ridicule at the coronation of the 46th Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Akeem Owoade.
Oba Abdurasheed, according to a video cited by our correspondent, attempted to gain entrance into the venue of the coronation just as other monarchs but was surprisingly prevented from gaining entry by stationed bouncers, protocol officers who held the monarch down for reasons they explained to him.
The harsh treatment meted on the Oluwo of Iwo might not be unconnected to his controversial pronouncements with respect to tradition, culture and traditional worship in Yoruba land.
Oluwo had in several videos warned Yoruba monarchs against subjecting themselves to traditional worship as they are expected to rever only God.
Reports from sources at the event says he was later allowed access to the venue after the earlier humbling treatment but was silent all through the event.
