Nigerians Slams Newly Crowned Ooni Of Ife For Kneeling In Church (Photo)

Mixed reactions greets a new photo of newly crowned Ooni of Ife which surfaced online recently.

According to some social media users, by kneeling down in the church, the Ooni rubbished the traditional African religion which he is supposed to defend, practise and uphold.

One Teekay Arabambi Akin wrote:

‘The Queen of England from the lands who brought you Christianity doesn’t kneel in the church of England nor does she kneel for the god or Jesus, but the Ooni of Ife, a sacred lineage and position that preceded that of England, preceded Christianity now feels the need to insult our culture, people, intelligence and dignity by kneeling in some church! This is just disgusting!”
