Yes, I Should Be Addressed As ‘His Imperial Majesty’ Coz No General Wld Like To Be Called A Sergeant-Oluwo Of Iwo
The Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, has urged his subjects and everyone to henceforth address him as ‘His Imperial Majesty’ and stop using ‘His Royal Majesty’ in letters and speeches.
Team@orientactualmags.com learned that the popular Yoruba monarch, who said this in a statement posted on Facebook on Sunday, cited the need to respect the Iwo throne considering the history of the town.
‘The general public, most especially the admirers of The Paramount Ruler of Iwoland, are to note that Oluwo is an Imperial Majesty, not His Royal Majesty.
The stool of Oluwo commands the respect of the direct blood of Oduduwa. The Oluwo stool is a crown from inception. Unlike many other stools in Yorubaland, Iwo stool was never upgraded from Baaleship. It is a natural Paramount crown from formation. Oluwo is a viceroy of none. Oluwo has over 30 Obas he crowned.
As such, Oluwo should always be addressed as ‘His Imperial Majesty’, and not ‘His Royal Majesty’.
Any correspondence without proper address will not be honoured. No General will love to be called a sergeant likewise no Doctor will answer the name of a nurse’ he wrote-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
