During his address, the Ooni challenged the politicians present, daring them to spend a peaceful week in their respective constituencies or local government areas.
He emphasized that his query applied to everyone, including the speaker of the house of representatives and the gatekeepers.
The Ooni expressed concern that the country cannot progress if only district heads and traditional rulers are aware of the challenges facing Nigerian youth.
According to the Ooni, politicians, while occupying opulent offices, have neglected the citizens of the nation.
