The ICIR President, Fayemi Fatunde Fakayode, stated that the monarch’s remarks are causing religious discord and embarrassment for other traditional leaders.

Fakayode made these statements during the inauguration of the new executive committee of the organization on Saturday. He also took the opportunity to call for calm amid the recent crisis between the Muslim and Christian communities in Iseyin.

“We implore those fanning the flames of religious discord in our land to desist. We advise the Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrashed Akanbi, to refrain from using derogatory statements against Yoruba tradition, culture, and religion,” Fakayode said.

“We also call on the government, especially the Osun State government, Yoruba socio-cultural organizations, and Yoruba elders to call Oba Abdulrashed to order before his utterances cause further issues.

“For the sake of peace, we implore practitioners of all religions and traditions to live in harmony and focus on what unites us rather than what divides us.

“In light of this, we appeal to both parties, Muslims and Christians, fighting in Iseyin to allow peace to reign,” he added.
