Isese: Osun priestess went beyond her boundaries, Emir replies Soyinka

For scheduling the Isese festival in Ilorin, Kwara State capital, an Osun priestess overstepped her boundaries, the emir of Ilorin, Sulu Gambari, has said in his reply to an open letter from Wole Soyinka.

Mr Soyinka had taken a swipe at the traditional ruler for preventing the priestess, Ajesikemi Olokun, from holding an Isese festival in the state.

The Nobel laureate said the emir’s action was an assault on civilised conduct.
