Former governor of Oyo State, Rashidi Ladoja, is in court against the enthronement of his colleagues as obas last year. This follows moves by Otun Olubadan, High Chief Rashidi Ladoja’s out-of-court settlement plan.
Ladoja, former governor of Oyo State , is in court against the enthronement of his colleagues as obas last year. It was his second time of challenging their enthronement.
When Governor Seyi Makinde re-enthroned them last year, Ladoja, who refused to accept the elevation as oba for the second time, returned to court, seeking the nullification of the enthronement. The case is still being heard. The obas shunned a meeting called by him a fortnight ago during which he expected that Oba Owolabi Olakulehin would be nominated and pronounced the next Olubadan.
Both parties were putting finishing touches on the agreement at the weekend, pointing to the possibility of a permanent truce during the week.
