Oyo, Ibadan – Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde and the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Lekan Balogun, have been dragged to court by ex-governor Rashidi Ladoja.
As reported by Punch, Ladoja, the Otun Olubadan of Ibadan, dragged the duo to court over the recently approved chieftaincy title by the state governor.
It was gathered by Legit.ng that the ten newly crowned chiefs were also included in the suit filed in court.
This action by Ladoja is on the heels of Makinde’s approval of the elevation of chiefs following the recommendation of Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Lekan Balogun, the prescribed and consenting authority.
Governor Makinde, on Friday, July 7, presented the staff of office to the newly crowned monarchs in the state.
