By Shina Abubakar Osogbo The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, has told United States President Donald Trump to apologise to Iranians for siding with Israel in the ongoing war in the Middle East. In a statement issued by the traditional ruler on Wednesday and made available to newsmen in Osogbo, he frowns at Mr. Trump for taking sides rather than playing the role of an arbiter in the crisis. While describing the war between Iran and the US/Israel as needless, he noted that the assassination of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is condemnable and provocative. The war between the United States of America/Israel, and Iran is needless. The killing of the armless 86-year-old supreme leader of Iran , Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is a sin against humanity. I doubt if the United States of America’s president, Donald Trump, has a history of those they have killed. I only pray it ends well. “Only cowardly countries can surrender themselves to such an approach deployed by the US president,Donald Trump. I love America so much, but its President should rethink his leadership style. Bombing innocent students in their attacks on Iran was a pure demonstration of cowardice. Iran has proved to America that not all countries are as cowardly as Venezuela. Iran has spoken in words and actions. “America has lost its supremacy. As a true world power, you don’t take sides when two parties are at war. US involvement without calling for a truce has made them lose their grip on world power. It was a needless and avoidable confrontation. I doubt if it will end well for America”, he said. Vanguard News
