After the Ooni delivered his speech, he made to go back to his seat and on his way back to the high table, he ran into theOluwo of Iwo, who seemed to be standing on his path, discussing with the Minister of the Interior, Lt Gen Danbazau rtd.

Ooni orderly went ahead the Ooni to ask the Oluwo to leave the way for the Ooni to pass. He, and the Oluwo had some altercation while theOoni watched their exchange.
