In a bid to put the record straight and lay the controversy over Yoruba-Igbo ties to rest, a first class monarch in Osun state, the Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba (Dr.) Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has said the founding father of Yoruba, Oduduwa was never the last born to the Igbos prince as claimed by Ohaneze Indigbo.

Oluwo described the claim as unfounded, false and misleading to the stalwarts of history, beseeching Igbo community to further their research on the adventure of their own Odudunwa rather than demeaning the status of Yoruba rallying point.

A statement by Oluwo’s press secretary, Alli Ibraheem yesterday reads: “Yoruba nation was founded by Oduduwa. Oduduwa brought the first civilization which is the crown.


 ” Oduduwa demonstrated an unequalled leadership, shrewd, peculiar, unparalleled, unmatched, quintessential and different, served his people and became rallying point for his services to humanity. He gave us the best tradition, so respectful and obedience.

Yoruba culture is rich, very beautiful and unblemished emanated from Oduduwa” “History is rich, necessary and must always be objective because it is a foundation to the future. Worldwide, Yoruba land is the source of every natural crowns. Our crowns are spirit, divinely ordained and sacred. It was brought by Oduduwa. And we owe a duty as his progenitors to defend everything about him”
