'EZE NDIGBO MUST STOP WEARING CROWN'- Deji Akure tells Mimiko.

Deji of Akureland in Ondo State, Oba Aladetoyinbo
Aladelusi on Wednesday listed conditions for truce
with the Eze Ndigbo of Akure, Gregory Iloehike.
This followed an altercation between the two in
Ondo State, last week, which led to protests and
the closure of markets.
Oba Aladelusi gave the conditions during a
meeting Governor Olusegun Mimiko had with him
and the Akure Council of Chiefs in Akure on the
lingering crisis.
Mimiko, at the meeting, apologized to the
monarch on behalf of Iloehike.
The governor had earlier met with the Igbo
leaders led by the embattled Eze Ndigbo, Iloehike
at the Governor’s office.
Ileohike was said to have denied disrespecting the
Oba and pleaded with the governor to help
resolve the over one-week crisis.
One of the conditions given by the monarch was
that the Igbo leader should be forbidden from
wearing any form of crown henceforth.
Other conditions include that the Eze Ndigbo must
apologize for his unruly behaviour in at least three
national dailies and on air.
“That the Igbo leader must write a letter of
apology to Oba Aladetoyinbo Ogunlade Aladelusi
and the Deji-in-Council.
“That the title ‘Eze Ndigbo’ must be reviewed and
replaced with a non-controversial honorary title
and that the Igbo Leader must comply with all the
earlier directives of the palace.”
