KUDOS to the Oyo State Police Command for facilitating face to face meeting of the Soun of Ogbomoso land, Oba Ghandi and the Grand Chief Imam of Ogbomosoland, Shaykh, Dr. Talhah Ayilara.
The two parties poured out their minds, and the meeting was quite revealing and the outcome fruitful. Oba Ghandi had started taking the Imam as a son when some aggrieved Muslim leaders started poisoning the Kabiyesi’s mind against the Imam. Many fake news and hate speeches were flying around to cause disaffectiom and acrimonious relationships between the Monarch and the Imam. Many things were known for the first time by the duo of monarch and the Imam today that were shockingly untrue. At last, the two parties are ready to embrace peace. It’s quite disturbing to know that Muslims, particularly prominent Muslims and scholars, were the ones interested in the removal of the Imam and not the Oba Ghandi himself. Honestly, if you listened to the Kabiyesi, he wasn’t interested in removing the Imam.
The Muslim leaders may meet with the Kabiyesi very soon, and normalcy will be restored. There is no point mentioning or showing faces of those behind the removal of the Imam. There is a need to make peace with everybody. The Imam has a lot to do, and he has given assurances that he will normalize relationships with the king and everybody in Ogbomoso. God bless you for sharing this.
