He wrote:
“Anytime when Emperor Telu arrives, He does not need to
scare his children (the black race) with all kind of old-scare tactics/ways
that does not fit into 21st century.
All those noise is meant for the palace to show and
entertain our visitors about our old way that should never be forgotten as well
as educate them about the new and improved in which love must set in.
I will never tell my security detail to push another King no
matter what ‘class’ of Oba!!! Even if my security detail made a mistake of
pushing anyone, I will scold that detail about how an Oba must respect his
children and everyone regardless of their status in the society, not to talk of
pushing an Oba with no apologies!
Anytime I meet other kings, I Oluwo of Iwo Land exchange
pleasantries with them with a smile and even touch each other as a sign of
respect, that is, respect which is reciprocal.
Oluwo doesn’t tell his entourage to push other Kings out of
the way because he wants to pass just as Governor Aregbesola will never as his security
details to push Governor Akeredolu out of the way because he wants to pass."
