THE UNITY OF ABEOKUTA............EGBALAND.
Late Oba Sir Ladapo Ademola (KBE)
The Alake of Egbaland 1920-1962.
His Mother was a Princess in Ake, Abeokuta while his Father hailed from Oke Ago-owu, also in Abeokuta, right behind the Egbeyemi Family House.
When it was the turn of his mother's ruling house to present the next Alake, she presented her son, definitely with the approval of his ruling house members despite the fact that young Ladapo's father hailed from Owu.
The Questions are;
1. Why did Aké Palace accept this nomination, knowing fully that the father hailed from the Òwu section of Abeokuta?
2. Why did the Owu Kingdom permit one of their own to leave Òwu to Aké to become the Paramount Ruler of Egbaland knowing fully that after attaining that throne, he automatically becomes a full indigine of Aké ?
The Answer is simple;
In Abeokuta, whether you hailed from Ake, Oke-Ona, Gbagura or Owu, everyone see themselves as ONE UNBREAKABLE FAMILY.
This is more reason everyone referred to each other as;
" ỌMỌ BABA MI".
No Segregation, No Discrimination, No Ethnicity, No Barrier.
Nobody Has The Monopoly of Rascality and Radicalism.
If we advised you to do away with Utterances and Writeups that can break Our Bond, that can deter Our Progress, that is capable of breaking Our Peace and Unity and you refused,
We too will not rest in our comfort zones to allow you to erode our Joy in Abeokuta.
We shall tackle and suppress you with Progressive Thoughts that will consolidate the Unity in Our Ancestral Home, ABEOKUTA and make you have a RETHINK FOR UNITY.
