The Oyo State Governor, Engr Seyi Makinde has vowed that he will use his instrument of office to guard against removal of the newly installed Soun of Ogbomoso, Oba Laoye Ghandi.
Governor Makinde made this vow in his address after presenting Instrument of Office and Staff of Office to Oba Ghadi Olaoye, Orumogege III, as the 21st Soun of Ogbomosoland held at Ogbomoso township stadium
“By now we should put behind us the issue of litigation. I hope before the end of next week, all the cases pending at various courts on the enthronement of Soun of Ogbomosoland will be withdrawn.
“However, if the litigants fail to heed the calls, I will not hesitate to use the instrument of office to fight back. I pray that the scenario that played out in one of the communities in this state when a suit lingered for 20 years and the king was subsequently removed from the throne will not happen in Ogbomoso. We pray that such a thing will not happen in Ogbomosoland,” the governor stated.
