The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has urged Nigerians to ignore the Yoruba nation agitators, describing them as attention seekers.
Osun Defender reports that some acclaimed Yoruba nation agitators invaded the Oyo State government secretariat last week.
The Ooni who spoke on Tuesday, when he received in the audience members of the Yoruba Council Worldwide, insisted that the agitators do not represent the interests of the Yoruba race.
Oba Ogunwusi advised Nigerians not to give the Yoruba nation agitators any attention.
He said: โWe should not give those people relevance, they are achieving their aims just to seek attention, we are having challenges here and there in the country, and this administration is really trying her best.
โUnder President Bola Tinubu, he is doing very well, he is doing exceptionally well. By trying to fix the economy, we should give him the benefit of the doubt and also engage people, very important that we should be engaging people to talk to others about the successes recorded by the government in power.
โFor us, we will continue to uphold and support the government, to support the president, to ensure everything he does is to our advantage, not as a race, but to our advantage as a nation, irrespective of where you come from, Yoruba land or anywhere.โ
