A fresh letter has surfaced online seeking support for the royal wedding involving the Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, and a princess from Kano State.
The letter was signed by the Babalaje of Iwoland, Alhaji Ismaila Kudaisi, demanding financial support to the tune of N50 million for Oluwo’s royal wedding.
Kudaisi confirmed the letter saying it was an arrangement among chiefs to honour the Oba Akanbi.
Recall that a letter, which had been debunked by Iwo’s palace, earlier surfaced online showing the monarch soliciting N20 million support from Osun State Governor, Gboyega Oyetola, for the wedding.
Reacting to the fresh letter, Kudaisi said, “We don’t know about the first letter allegedly written to the governor. But the second one with my letterhead is authentic.
“A couple of chiefs in Iwo have decided to arrange a befitting wedding for our monarch. It is an idea among the chiefs, it has nothing to do with Kabiesi (Oluwo).”
A copy of the letter dated February 7, 2022, was titled, ‘Notification of royal wedding of HRM Oba Dr AbdulRasheed Adewale Akanbi Telu 1 and a princess of Ado Bayero dynasty’.
Part of the letter read, “A few of the high chiefs of Iwoland have consequently mandated me to constitute a committee to plan and see to the success of the wedding with a befitting royal ceremony.
“At the inaugural meeting of the committee, we arrived at a modest tentative budget of N50million to cover the traditional wedding Tambaya (introduction, Kai Kaya (engagement), and aqdu Nikkai. The royal traditional wedding in Kano will be rounded up with a reception for the princess.”
Meanwhile, reacting to the first, Osun State Government has denied that Oluwo wrote a letter to the governor demanding N20 million to finance his wedding ceremony.
