The Ooni, Ogunwusi moved into his Ile Mole, Iremo Quarters in Ile-Ife where he will be secluded and not communicate with anyone for a period of seven days.

Ekohotblog.com confirmed that Ogunwusi left the palace in a white attire laced with colourful ancient beads.

Speaking on the seclusion, the Ooni disclosed that he will use the period to contact God in the ways of his ancestors for restoring Nigeria’s peace and granting the country victory over the Pandemic, COVID-19.

“I am going into seclusion; I am going into fasting and prayer in the ways of our ancestors. We are gradually winning the war against coronavirus and we must indeed be thankful because we are not superior to those countries being crippled by this pandemic.

“After the seven-day seclusion, there follows the climax of it, which is the procession of the sacred Aare crown with which, we will pray for the entire nation and humanity”, the Ojaja II said.
