This rare diplomatic intervention from a traditional ruler highlights how global conflicts resonate within Nigerian civil society.</p><h2>Domestic Spotlight: Police Reform and Power Plans</h2><p>While the Oluwo commented on foreign affairs, significant developments were unfolding at home.

Addressing senior officers in Abuja, Disu declared there would be "no sacred cows" for misconduct that erodes public trust in the police force.</p><p>Concurrently, the Federal Executive Council, presided over by President Bola Tinubu, approved plans to establish a Grid Asset Management Company (GAMCO).

Despite this, he vowed to champion the progressive ideals of his father and South-West icons like Obafemi Awolowo and Bola Ige.</p><p>This blend of international commentary and domestic policy underscores a day of multifaceted Nigerian discourse, from the palace in Iwo to the halls of power in Abuja and the political landscape of Ibadan.</p>
