Ooni: Succession Tussle Toughens

As the process of choosing a new Ooni of Ife gains momentum, Prince Adeyemi Adeoye Aderibigbe Ologbenla who is from one of the ruling houses in Ile-Ife, has advised all stakeholders in the selection process of a new monarch to be wary of those jostling for the title, noting that most of them are not from any of the lineages that produce kings in the town.
This came just as he dismissed the claim of one Prince Ramon Adegoke Adedoyin who said the late Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade had anointed him as his successor, adding that no king since inception of the ancient town, had ever chosen a successor.

The retired Professor of Economics from Obafemi Awolowo University said the claim of the prince was a complete falsehood, adding that he was not recognized as a member of any of the ruling houses from Ife.

 Ooni of Ife: Oba Okunade Sijuwade, Olubuse 11



He said this yesterday in Ibadan in an exclusive interview with Vanguard.
According to him, the claim of the man was alien to the history of Ife and were not in tandem with the laid down rules and regulations guiding the ascendancy to the throne of Ooni.
