He further noted that the controversy had drawn in several political and traditional figures, but insisted that the narrative was being exaggerated for ulterior motives. The situation had also sparked reactions from former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, who alleged that there were hidden political intentions targeting key traditional institutions in Oyo State.

However, Fayose’s claims were strongly rejected by the PDP South-West leadership, which described his comments as irresponsible and capable of inflaming public sentiment and disrespecting revered cultural institutions.
