The Oluwo of Iwoland in Osun State, Oba Abdul Rasheed Adewale Akanbi, has advised Yoruba traditional rulers to stop visiting shrines, warning that God will punish any king who worships idols.


According to him, power is in the North today because they detest idol worshippers. He said until idol worshipping is done away with in Yorubaland, power cannot return to the region again.

The monarch gave the charge when he spoke at the Iwo crusade total deliverance which was held at the Prayer Centre Church of God (PCCG) recently. The monarch cursed the deities and those that worship idols.

Speaking at the crusade, the monarch said‘Who is Sango, Oya, Ogun, Osun and others before God? What is the supreme being that all these deities worshipped.

Our forefathers who have reigned as king throughout the Yoruba race misled everybody, they were wrong. This position of king doesn’t have any connection with deities. The position should not have any meeting point with deities and idols.

All those who have been kings in Yoruba kingdom, the pastors, prophets, reverends, especially the Prophet Ogunmodede, I want to tell you that you are all doing great work. The voice of God has manifest that in Yorubaland, the king that refuses to dump idols and deities will not know rest. The trouble you are all facing now, the Yoruba kings are responsible for them all.

God is the king, that means the palace where the king lives should be what? The only enemy and rival of God in that palace is the deities or idols that stay in the palace with the king.

I know you are all from different towns. The leader, driver, head of a town who give orders and directives now harbours idols or deities in the palace that is originally owned by God, what will be the outcome, won’t they be fighting?

That means the place of authority of your towns, there is a trouble, what do you think will be the resultant effect on the subjects? You are in trouble already. Don’t berate my stand on this issue, you need to yield to my counsel.".
