Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi said Nigerian politicians are the same irrespective of their parties, challenging them to start serving the people genuinely and stop taking the country for granted.

This is as he pledged to pray to his ancestors to touch political class’s heart and changed them towards loving the people.

Ooni disclosed this at his Ile-Oodua palace, Ile-Ife, before heading into seven days seclusion to commune with the gods ahead of Olojo Festival.

He said there is no difference among  politicians in the country, adding that they have all cross carpet from one major political party to another to protect their interests.

“We believe in the forces of nature for nature to conspire in our favour but every other thing in our country they are all man made, the likes of security, our politicians will take credit for that, they are the ones that caused it till date. I will go again to seclusion for God to touch their heart for them to stop playing all of us like ludo.
