This development follows a previous report by Legit.ng, that the Ooni of Ife likened the Yoruba deity, Oluorogbo, with Jesus Christ, drawing similarities between them.

The Ooni made the comparison in a chat with newsmen at the resuscitated Edi Annual Festival in Ile-Ife, meant to celebrate Oluorogbo, who according to mythology, ascended to heaven, after being killed by his mother, Moremi, as a sacrifice for the gods.
