Video: Ooni of Ife appears in Mr Macaroni’s comedy skit.
The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi is currently trending on social media for featuring in a two minute, twenty seconds comedy skit. The comedy skit anchored by popular skit comedian, Debo Macaroni featured the first class Yoruba king explaining the Yoruba culture and heritage concerning greetings.
Although there are some commentary against the act, the king has however used the opportunity to solidarise with resourceful youths and also promote culture.
The king has also proved that HUMILITY is a virtue even in wealth and positions.
Debo Macaroni has recently featured prominent persons and stars like Jide Kosoko,Don Jazzy, Ogogo, Segun Arinze but featuring the Ooni of Ife is the peak of it.
On his official twitter page, the Ooni tweeted that “Over the past four years of my ascension to the Throne of my forbearers, one of my core Royal mission has been to reconstruct the worldview of our young populations.
“It was an audacious moment, imprinting ambitious ideas for greatness in their minds as well as stemming up their spirit to share in my vision of rewriting our stories, celebrating in our ancestors achievements and recording their challenges of the past for the generations ahead, Young people must never forget their culture and heritage, it is the greatest asset and wealth that we all must embrace.”
The traditional ruler has to promote the culture of his people in whichever way it suits him being the custodian of our culture and the Ooni has done wonderfully well.
You’re doing well ooin.
