Meanwhile, the palace recently clarified reports concerning Nollywood actor and comedian James Olanrewaju, popularly known as Baba Ijesha.

The Ooni’s palace explained that although the actor and his wife visited the Ile Oodua Palace to celebrate the birth of their son, no traditional chieftaincy title was awarded to him.

According to the palace, the Ooni welcomed the actor and presented him with a brand-new vehicle and cash gifts as a gesture of goodwill and fatherly support, noting that the gesture should not be interpreted as a formal traditional installation.
