Oluwo of Iwo Oluwo of Iwo

The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi has called the suspension given to him by the Osun State Traditional Rulers' Council an "audio suspension".

The monarch was on Friday suspended for six months by the Osun State Council of Traditional Rulers, according to mynigeria.com.

The royal fathers arrived at the decision to suspend Oba Akanbi at their emergency meeting held at Osun State Government Secretariat, Abere, presided over by Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi.

However, a statement issued by the Oluwo sees him denying the suspension.

According to him, "The Osun State Traditional Council has only recommended his suspension from the council meetings and activities for six months on the guise that his conduct (being too flashy, stylish, human rights defender and swagging); and that (the suspension) is even subject to Governor’s approval".

He also had more to say in the video below.
