I don’t see anything wrong with Ooni of Ife been in that Macaroni’s skit.
Just a King trying to solidarise with resourceful youths and also using the opportunity to promote culture. A King!
@BemiwoElis
His contribution in the skit speaks of the eroding traditional values.
National orientation agency should use Macaroni’s skit as blue print.

Ooni of Ife remains my favorite royal figure in the world.
So relatable and supportive.

It wasn’t just about Ooni Of Ife featuring in Mr macaroni ‘s video. The respected traditional ruler used the opportunity to educate us on the need to respect not just elders but rulers.
