Deji of Akure gives conditions for Truce with Eze Ndigbo

The Deji of Akure, Oba Aladetoyinbo Aladelusi, yesterday, gave conditions for truce with the Eze Ndigbo of Akure, Gregory Iloehike.
One of the conditions was that the Igbo leader is forbidden from wearing any form of crown henceforth.
Oba Aladelusi gave the conditions during a meeting Governor Olusegun Mimiko had with him and the Akure Council of Chiefs in Akure on the lingering crisis between the monarch and the Eze Ndigbo.
The governor had earlier met with the Igbo leaders led by Iloehike at his office.
Ileohike was said to have denied disrespecting the Oba and pleaded with the governor to help resolve the crisis.
Other conditions given by the Oba are that the Eze Ndigbo must apologize for his unruly behaviour in at least three national dailies and on air.
“That the Igbo leader must write a letter of apology to Oba Aladetoyinbo Ogunlade Aladelusi and the Deji-in-Council.
“That the title ‘Eze Ndigbo’ must be reviewed and replaced with a non-controversial honorary title and that the Igbo Leader must comply with all the earlier directives of the palace.”
