"Don't deny abiodun his school fees and the land I alloted him must not be disputed either .Every child seeks his mother's conscience for their heritage.My special child must secure his heritage too."
In 1962 abiodun and his sibling had secured the fee to achikota college in Ghana for his university education.
Twenty years after he returned home to take charge of his father's properties left behind after his death,akanmu abiodun 's fourth child secured the power of attorney to manage the properties in aftermath of two decades of stolen rents.The uncle had belched the 🐈 cat untold stories of the Laniyan household migration from Osun state.
"Akanmu did my brother tell your root?"
"Of course nope"
"Your genealogy hails from ifon from the stool of olufon of ifon ."
It was somewhat dazzling in the badminton court to be unveiled the root of the Laniyan household genealogy from the most unexpected angles and it took a guzzling while for the sinker to sink it down the guttural of the bombastic but startled and inexperienced listener.Then he began to grope the mundane and extra mundane scholarship of the confounding muses of the old.Far away from the court consumed with the meditative mindset,raised his tearful eyes to take snapshot of his father's uncompleted property almost fifty years after still uncompleted.This history consoled him.
"Hence we are of royal household too"
The confidence that swept his frame was from above and armed with pride to confront Tunde Ogbomoso who had ridiculed his lineage as nobody and make a mockery of every ajilete as the king's slaves .The old man continued
"I was wooed persistently to come back to ifon and rule by force by fire."
"Why did you refuse?"
"Because olugbon would take over the remainders of Laniyan household properties and lands.So I decided to stay behind and abandon kingship at olufon."
The arrogation of Tunde Ogbomoso drove akanmu's esteem into smithereens to accept the bestiality of contempt and the slavery of his household as logical reality of historical tradition in the mordern times was somewhat beyond unscrupulous ridiculous remarks to make of formerly the wealthiest family in the ancient city.The household that indirectly founded the city and incubated almost all the major industries and businessess in the erstwhile ancient town.
"So our lineage founded Okelerin compound the same compound that led to the establishment of Ogbomoso after the massacre of elemosho by soun of Ogbomoso.So,we our lineage could have 🐝 been producing kings and queens and we hardly knows.Tunde had noted Olugbon was the oldest kingdom in Ogbomoso but now I know we re older in Ogbomoso than olugbon."he murmured to himself.
The old man continued."The crisis in olufon royal family sixth royal family in Osun state was responsible for our migration to our current location in Ogbomoso "
"Uhmmmm "akanmu gobsmacked his full esteem returned"So,we re not slave to soun of Ogbomoso "he murmured to himself again.
"Tell me about the crisis "
"When it was the turn of my great great grandfather to receive their crown and be installed the monarchy betrayed them.My great great grandfather decided to fight and invoke fetish powers,realising the proportion of souls that could die he decided to migrate and leave them alone to our current location."
"Uhmmmm,this is incredible."
"When they were coming they brought masquerade down to Okelerin."
"So Okelerin still the center of masquerade till date "
"Exactly.So,we have a royal family too that we didn't use ."
Akanmu was elated beyond joy and a week after he returned to Lagos and two weeks he returned back to the conversation club at the relaxation hours most 5pm to 10pm at brt park igando.
