Oriyomi Hamzat faults Peter Obi’s salutation to OlubadanBroadcaster Oriyomi Hamzat has criticised former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi’s congratulatory message to the newly crowned Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rashidi Ladoja. Obi had earlier addressed the monarch as “My dear brother,” which some critics argued is a breach of cultural protocol and a disrespect to Yoruba tradition. He called Olubadan, a royal head, my friend,” Hamzat said in the broadcast. “I felicitated with my dear elder brother, the newly crowned, His Royal Majesty, Oba Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja. I always refer to His Royal Majesty Igwe Alfred Achebe, Obi of Onitsha, as my very dear elder brother in the same affectionate manner.
