Alaafin Blames Obasanjo For Yoruba Marginalisation
The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, has heaped blames on former President Olusegun Obasanjo for the alleged marginalisation of the Yoruba in the present administration.

 The monarch, who received the former Senate Leader, Senator Teslim Folarin, on a sympathy visit over the January 8 fire incident in parts of the palace yesterday in Oyo, noted that the eight-year rule of Obasanjo was a disservice to Yoruba people.

According to him, Obasanjo’s eight year rule never ensured a succession policy for the Yoruba while he paid lip service to issues that could assist the cause of the group.

The traditional ruler called on Yoruba politicians to safeguard the cultural value of the Yoruba nation, warning that Yoruba language and culture faced serious threat of extinction following refusal of parents to teach their children local language and culture.
