The Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi, has reported the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Adetunji, to President Muhammadu Buhari.
Ajimobi told State House correspondents that he called the President’s attention to the protracted tussle between him and the royal father over the recently reviewed Olubadan Chieftaincy Declaration.
The governor also said he called the President’s attention to the fact that the hiccups created by the review had been politicized.
He alleged that the process has been “hijacked by a politician who is interested in his office.”
The governor said he, however, assured Buhari that although the Olubadan deserved to be deposed based on his actions, he would not remove him because of the father-son relationship between them.
DAILY POST had reported that an attempt by former President Olusegun Obasanjo, ex-Secretary to Oyo State government Chief Olayiwola Olakojo and former Head of Service of the Federation, Professor Oladapo Afolabi to prevail on the Olubadan of Ibadanland, to withdraw a case he instituted against Governor Abiola Ajimobi of the state over the review of Ibadan Chieftaincy Declaration failed.
