Odumeje Warns Critics of Spiritual Consequences for Challenging Him Online
Clergyman Odumeje has issued a stern warning to his critics, declaring that anyone who challenges him online will face spiritual repercussions. He insisted that his powers are unmatched, claiming that people have been returning to him for divine intervention since 1996. According to him, he does not engage in online arguments; instead, he checks the social media profiles of those who attack him and deals with them spiritually. Odumeje also claimed that he stores the ailments he removes from people in a spiritual “storehouse” and can assign an appropriate affliction to anyone who provokes him. In his words: “If I don’t have power none of you would come here. Since 1996, if you leave, you return. You don’t have a choice. Is there anyone who does miracle like I do? Nobody drags me, if you drag me on the internet I kpai you. I’m not even going to drag with you, I’ll just carry your profile and go to bed then start dealing with you. All the sickness I remove, I keep them in a store house. If you trouble me, I’ll go and check for the one that will fit you so that your body will calm down.”

Dele Momodu Slams Oluremi Tinubu Over Public Reprimand of Governor Adeleke
Dele Momodu has slammed First Lady Oluremi Tinubu over her public confrontation with Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke during a recent ceremony in Ile-Ife. The incident, captured on video, showed Governor Adeleke beginning his speech with a song, a style familiar to his supporters. First Lady Tinubu, who had just been honoured with the title Yeye Asiwaju Gbogbo Ile Oodua, approached the podium and warned the governor to end his performance, threatening to switch off the microphone if he continued singing. Sharing the video on Instagram, Momodu described her actions as “totally beneath her.” He emphasized that, as a non-elected official, she has no constitutional authority to publicly reprimand a sitting governor. He also criticized the religious undertone of her intervention, pointing out that it was surprising for a self-professed pastor to object to a governor praising God. Momodu further questioned whether she would have acted the same way if a Northern governor were reciting the Holy Qur’an, highlighting a potential double standard. While many praised Governor Adeleke’s composure, Momodu placed part of the blame on Nigerians, whom he described as “squeamish” for silently accepting such displays of overreach and disrespect, saying it reflects a failure to defend citizens’ rights.

K1 De Ultimate Defends Royal Lineage, Says He Deserves To Contest For Awujale Stool
Fuji music legend Wasiu Ayinde, popularly known as K1 De Ultimate, has defended his royal heritage and dismissed criticisms over his bid to become the next Awujale of Ijebuland. Speaking during a stage performance on Sunday, K1 insisted that pursuing the vacant throne is his rightful claim. A video of the performance, now viral and reviewed by Tribune Online, shows the musician invoking the spirit of the late Awujale, Oba Sikiru Adetona, urging him to clarify the controversy surrounding his ancestry. K1 said debates about his lineage intensified after he announced his intention to contest for the highly respected stool. He referenced titles previously conferred on him by the late monarch, including Olori Omo-Oba Akile Ijebu, a designation for leaders among Ijebuland princes, stressing that Oba Adetona was fair and not covetous, and that the honours were genuinely earned. He stated, “I am from the fidipotemole in Ijebu Ode, and also from the Fusegbunwa of Ijebu-Ode. If my lineage is being questioned now, we will meet at Popo. If it is about the kingship I am contesting for, it is my right; no one can silence me. “Late Kabiesi Awujale, Oba Adetona, was of sound mind when he gave me the title of Olori Omo-Oba. If I were not of royal blood, it wouldn’t have been possible. Awujale is not covetous; I therefore call on your spirit to reveal the truth to the people, as some are trying to hide it.” Popo, which K1 referenced, is a historic site near the Awujale’s palace in Ijebu-Ode, closely linked to the kingdom’s founding families.
