Soun: Reactions As Former RCCG Pastor Is Expected To Spend 7 Days In Shrine, Meet Witches, Others
By Daniel Dafe
Former pastor at the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Jesus House, Washington DC, the United States and now the new Soun of Ogbomoso Land, Oba Afolabi Ghandi Olaoye will spend 7 days in the shrine for traditional rights, a scholar, Oladumiye E. B., has said.
Recall that the new Soun arrived the ancient city of Ogbomoso in Oyo State for the first time on Friday morning since his formal selection as the Soun of Ogbomoso following the demise of HRM Oba Jimoh Oyewunmi in December, 2021.
The traditional ruler, who arrived town aboard Chopper, was welcomed by a jubilant crowd, who also accompanied him to the Soun’s Palace for brief traditional rites ahead of his formal coronation.
Oladumiye who posted this on his X account, said that also, “there will be curfew, and anyone caught wandering during this period will be killed as part of his traditional rite.”
Adding: “Then he will be installed as the Soun of Ogbomosho.”
According to the him, “Later on Sunday he will go to RCCG headquarters for Thanksgiving.”
He continued: “When there is ‘ISEMO’ which is called a curfew in English what are people expected to do? Stay indoors right, when people are caught during this period, what happens to them, they are taken to the Police station or Prison, that is the true info. in fact, he is expected to meet with witches, wizards, white towel cults, and all sorts. He will also prostrate to the kingmakers 3 times which is the last prostration he is expected to do according to tradition.”

The said post has been trailed by mixed reactions.
Why some believe it is just a culture, others posited that the cleric may have denounced his christian faith, wondering why he will end up in church for a thanksgiving.
See reactions below:
FCI- Fake pastors

Alukothegameguy- Because his a pastor he can’t be a king or perform what is ment for him
Democracy and Environment Platform- Please,grow up and stop the unnecessary rantings!
If You understand spirituality,You will know that all powers belong to The Almighty!
Even if He enters any shrine or bows to any thing,He understands His authority in the realm,as a Child of the most High!
Clara Osagiede- Tinubu’s wife is said to be a pastor also married to an occult man Tinubu. Strange things are happening
Frank Cruise- Tradition is tradition, my problem is this man going to RCCG for Thanksgiving and pretending that nothing of sort happened! Hypocrisy in christendom.

Ovie of.Abraka- What were you expecting to do ?
