Elders of Moro Local Government Area of Kwara State have asked to quit the Ilorin Emirate Council.
Reacting to a statement attributed to the Emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, in which he allegedly cautioned Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq against the elevation of the Ohoro of Shao and Oba of Jebba as traditional chiefs, the Moro Concerned Elders Movement told the government to ignore the warning.
The statement read, “The council reminded the government of the fact that all traditional chiefs in the five local government areas that make up the Ilorin Emirate are lesser chiefs under the Emir of Ilorin. However, MOCEM in a statement by Alhaji Isiaka Jimoh , Dr Bolaji Afolabi and Chief Sunday Oyebiyi said, “We hereby plead with the dynamic government of Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq to totally ignore the “caution” of the Ilorin Emirate Council through Saliu Mohammed, because it is anti-people and unconstitutional.”
