Presidential plane for Ooni of Ife, Deji of Akure and their aides

The Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade Olubuse II, and the Deji of Akure Kingdom, Oba Adebiyi Adegboye Adesida and their aides photographed coming down from a Presidential Aircraft by themselves at the presidential wing of the Murtala Muhammed Airport in Ikeja on Tuesday January 31, 2012.

I'm not insinuating anything...just showing you pictures. But I hope you get it?

Do your research Linda, since you have a broad reader base, you are able to influence a lot of people easily (even if you are only speculating), and this is a serious responsibility. They went to request a sovereign national conference because there is a (valid) fear that the current situation combined with the various regional separatist movements might lead to a war if not checked. These are volatile times, be careful about the reactions you evoke.

You people sha, these people were coming from Kano. Going there was done in the spirit of one Nigeria. Their security had to be guaranteed.

Chop and clean mouth. I hope they don't sell Yorubas like the Afenifere leaders sold out Abiola.

Is it now a commercial plane???

in my opinion, all these royal fathers (from whatever tribe)are just a bunch of over pampered individuals with little or no meaningful contribution to national development. Crack heads

Bee said...

Why can't they fly commercial like everyone else....shu better yet why can't they rent helicopter/private jet?

So now we (tax payers) are paying for jona to be sending presidential jet to pick random pple. I'm sure he don send am to pick babes self.

And pple here dont even see what the problem is. Sad!!!!!!!

@ Nonye: Just shut up already!! What are u on about? So when all other national and regional leaders want to go to Abuja do they ask for the Presidential jet?

Anonymous said...

well i dont see the issue here. A common man who is being visited by important people will make the BEST arrangements possible for them, corporate firms do this for important people coming for their meetings, if its buying first class ticket or whatever, govenors send their convoys to pick up their important guests, so if the best way to cater for Kings (weather ya'l like it or not, they are prominent Kings) by the president is by using a private jet, so be it, this is what they call Protocol. it was a meeting, not a 'hi jona, lets catch up'.

Secondly, ya'll are saying 'our tax money', 'our private jet' and all that bs, look at it this way, the Ooni for starters has loads of companies in nigeria, he is paying shit loads of company tax, amount that all your income taxes put together will not amount to, so its his money too abi. So while he has the opportunity to benefit from his tax money by flying with the a private jet, why not you guys too maximize your tax money by getting on the BRT bus, very simple.

well i dont know for deji of akure oo, but for Ooni of ife, i know for a fact the type of royal treatment they give him abroad, in america, uk and all. So it will be absurd if he doesn't get such treatments in his own country.

if not bcos he travels by road most of the time in nigeria, getting a private jet for himself im sure is not a big deal to him, so you guys should stop talking as if its a christmas gift to him to fly on a pj. as for the aides, well you cant separate the King from his men, so thats part of their own enjoyment while he's alive, cos when he dies, you guys wont be part of the servants that will be buried with him or eat his heart (if they still do that), lol.

we are here complaining that nigeria might get broke if fuel subsidy is not removed and here we are with so many presidential jets. the british prime minister does not have a private jet he flys the british airways and here we are even simple people that do not hold any appointment flying the immoral presidential jet, WHICH WAY NIGERIA ! GEJ its a pity but history would not be kind with you. you are a disgrass to the common man

JAY'S WIFE said...

slow people! they had aides yet got off the plane themselves so what were the aides for ? ITS CALLED SARCASM

I imagine how many Yorubas lying on the floor at the airport.

With all due respect to our traditional rulers,they could have gone in the 1st class of a commercial airline or even a rented jet.when the president uses the private jet of the FRN to pick them and makes sure they are well taken care of please tell me how they will tell him the truth.i am not so sure about the others but the ooni of Ife has been a great dissapointment.he has folicked with any government in power and that is such a shame.they should live above board and should be sought for their opinions on national issues and not be seen as partisan.it all boils down to this love for money at whatever costs.i do hope that you havent gone to further seek your personal interests and even if a little late,you have all finally woken up to your responsiblities to your communities.the word integrity and self worth is fast erdoing in our culture.Lord have mercy

In response to you,i honestly donnot think the issue is them been royally treated.i am looking at it from a different point of view.protocol isnt new anywhere in the world but in the midst of so much poverty????i have read somewhere and thats my greatest fear,that when the poor have nothing left to eat,they will eat the rich.i am grateful to God that i can say i am very comfortable but can we honestly say we are able to enjoy our hard earned money(for those of us that really worked at it) without fear of kidnappers,armed robbers etc.we need to fix the issues and i do hope our "kings" have finally woken up to their responsibilities.thank you

I used to respect the ooni when i was a lot younger.however he has thrown that away by dining with the devils.his coy was given the road construction works for the ife -ondo road.the job was shoddily and cheaply done and never completed.without us fooling ourselves we know what happened to the monies.and i asked myself then,if he cant uplift and upgrade the roads passing through his town,how much more others contracted to his firm.but the most beautiful part of this life we are all passing thru is that none of us is taking this monies to heaven.

Anonymous 7:24 are you confused....this is "THE PRESIDENTIAL JET". it is not a rented jet.

You must be very daft, so anyone that pays taxes should fly on presidential jets.

And we wonder why naija no dey move forward. Some of the comments here and indicative of the stupidity reflected in our govt today.

Kabiyesi, Ooni Olofin Adimula is the Supreme King for Africa and Black people all over the world. Nigeria government need and must accord him all due respect and honor. When His Divine Majesty, visited USA, UK, and other places around the world: the respect accorded by the host country is awesome. Long live our King, H.D.I.M. Alayeluwa Oba Okunade Sijuwade, and Olubuse II.

Anon @ 6.43pm, it is quite possible to disagree with someone without being impolite, unless you were more interested in generating rancour than in getting your point across

I am not suprised, they are acting the same way their forefathers who where major players in d slave trade did.traditional rulers in dis contry are a curse to their people they still sell their people even today.mtschee and to think that people justfied this. On the basis that they went for something important *smh it is sad that people can't still see beyound their noses may God help us o

This Ooni of Ife is one disgusting thing. Always full of himself with his overbloated sense of self-importance. Who gives a fuck about his tiny 'kingdom' in the middle of nowhere? Abeg let these people go and bury their heads somewhere. They are totally irrelevant and of no use to anybody. Jonathan must be silly for wasting tax payers' money on Jet fuel to ferry these inconsequential old men with delusions of grandeur in a presidential jet. Stupid people all of them.
