Encounter Sparks Online Debate
In a recent event in Ondo State, a public interaction between the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, and the governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, has ignited a social media storm. Users across various platforms have taken to their accounts to share opinions on a viral video capturing the exchange.
According to the footage circulating in the Nigerian digital space, Governor Adeleke entered the event venue and approached a table where the Ooni and other dignitaries were seated. In a snippet of the video, the Ooni extended his hand for a handshake, but Adeleke appeared to look away momentarily, opting to shake hands with another traditional ruler before returning to acknowledge the Ooni.
However, media mogul Dele Momodu, who was present at the event, took to his social media account to provide context. Posting a more extended video of the occasion, the veteran journalist clarified that the governor and the Ooni “have a special bond.”
