There was a mild drama on social media as a prominent traditional ruler in the South-western part of Nigeria has been accused of applying lipstick.
The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Adewale Akanbi, has denied using lipstick after his Instagram follower questioned the colourful nature of his lips.
Acts like this is probably not new to Nigeria with cross-dressers like Denrele Edun and Idris Okuneye Olanrewaju aka Bobrisky giving women a tight competition in the market of feminine products.
@Rysholarbabe who saw his attractive lips was forced to asked if the paramount ruler was toeing the Bobrisky line.
"Kabiyesi.... the lipstick fit you o."
The Oluwo of Iwo Land who has a taste of the upscale western life cleared the air that he naturally has pinks lips.
"Not a lipstick its kabiesi's natural lips" the account handler possibly replied.
