Prince Adedipe Ewenla, the Crown Prince of Ilugun Asalu in Abeokuta North, Ogun, Southwest Nigeria has charged the the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan to demand the immediate release of Yoruba youths and Oba Ademola Adewale Ademiluyi who were recently arrested by the Police and still being detained over the last crises in the ancient town of ife.

According to Adedipe, the oba could not claim that he was not aware of their detention and that he was in the position to demand for their release as the custodian of the people.

“When your subjects are being detained unjustly, you are going about as if nothing has happen, going from one country to another attending to other people. If one house is on fire, he cannot enter inside and sleep, he has to put out the fire out first.

“He was made the Chancellor of the University of Nsuka due to his position and he should use that same position to wade into this matter,” he said.

Adedipe also called on all Yoruba leaders to come out and demand the release of the suspects.
