The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has become the center of attention following a video that surfaced online, showing him being publicly embarrassed by Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke.

In the viral video, captured at an event, the Ooni stood up to greet Governor Adeleke, extending his hand for a handshake. However, the Governor ignored the gesture and proceeded to greet others.

The video has generated mixed reactions, with some feeling embarrassed for the monarch, while others defend Adeleke’s action by stating that the King is not expected to shake hands with anyone.
