Pandemonium broke out in Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State when suspected hoodlums, Wednesday, set the palace of the Olofin of Ado-Odo, Oba Lateef Adeniran, on fire.

Vanguard gathered that a portion of the palace located in Isale Ado area of the Awori town had earlier been razed following last April violence that rocked the town.

Some hoodlums stormed the monarch’s palace last April during which they set the ground floor of the palace on fire before stripping Oba Adeniran and his wife, Olori Fausat, naked.

Consequently, the state government set up a commission of inquiry which gave the monarch a clean bill of health and asked him to continue his obaship.

It was, however, gathered that the hoodlums stormed the palace again, Wednesday, to carried out the latest arson.

Vanguard’s findings show that the monarch had been living in exile in Abeokuta since last April following the conclusion of the sitting of the commission of inquiry set up by the state government to look into the crisis.

Confirming the incident, the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Muyiwa Adejobi said the source of the fire could not be immediately established.

He said the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Ikemefuna Okoye, had ordered the state Criminal Investigations Department to embark on a thorough investigation to know the real cause of the fire.

Surprised.......First †☺ Comment on FP...

Dancing skelewu

....FP tinz

Yes o..nice one.

Dem say dem no want u, u still wan rule by force. Na by force?

If only this lkind gesture could be extended to our thieving politicians...

But my concern is not abt the aggreived mobs, but the question of whether or not they weren't being paid to act 'mad'!!

in a land where there are no rules/or where the rules are not enforced because the idiots in government would rather take time and turns in siphoning the country's fund like petroleum that we all know they're obsessed with/ or where the people are mentally slow/ unable to process information and reason like the humans that they are, they experience ruins.......just like this one.

The people yhu want to rule said dEeey № want yhu to rule' yhu deeey use agidi deeey' I suggest yhu leave dat place for deeem to choose who deeey want' abi nah by force? If not for yhurself'do am for your family

[size=24pt]I APPEAL TO ALL TRADITIONAL MONARCHS TO PLEASE RESPECT THE GODS OF THE LAND!

IF YOU WANT TO ESCAPE A SIMILAR FATE!

YOU ARE HERE FOR A PURPOSE TO PROTECT THE TRADITIONAL RELIGION AND CULTURE!


NOT TO DO AWAY WITH IT AND IMPOSE FOREIGN BELIEFS ON THE INSTITUTION![/size]


Custodians of traditions and shrines in Ado-Odo town in Ado-Odo-Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State, yesterday, explained that the failure of Oba AbdulLateef Adeniran to embrace all the Deities in the area led to the attack by the hoodlums who beat him up, stri*ped him unclad then burnt down his palace .


The traditionalists, under the aegis of the Olorisa Parapo of Oduduwa Shrine who appeared, yesterday, before the Judicial Commission of Inquiry set up by the state government to look into the crisis in the area said [size=24pt]it would not have been possible for any hoodlum to touch the Oba if he had “subjected himself to all the traditional rites before ascending the throne.[/size]”
Leading the aged men and women to the commission which sat at Isabo in Abeokuta, the Otun Olorisa Obirin, Chief Akoye Osolo, and the custodian of Oduduwa shrine, Chief Sule Odunlami, accused Oba Adeniran of preventing them from performing their traditional rites, vowing to resist any attempt to lord the embattled Oba on the people of the town.
The group, however, told the commission that one Adetokunbo Akinsowon led a team of mobile policemen and hoodlums to the town weeks before the crisis to enforce the Supreme Court judgment which favoured the embattled Oba.
Oba Adeniran was attacked by hoodlums April 14 and 15, 2013 where he was beaten and stri*ped unclad before they burnt down his palace.
Meantime, the driver of the embattled monarch, Olufunmi Olajide, told the court that the hoodlums actually had the intention of killing the Oba.
Olajide while giving details of the attack on the monarch, told the commission that one Mr. Jaiye Falana and Fatai Egi (aka Ode) masterminded the attack.




OBA ADENIRAN!


CHOOSE BETWEEN ISLAM OR IFA ORISHA AND THE THRONE!


YOU CANT DO BOTH!

The idle hand is the devil's tool.

Evil that men do, will live with them!

Gone are those days when monarchs used to be respected. Things like this can NEVER happen in the Oba palace of Benin. Oba gha to kpere!!

dat awkward

yea

That's the result of mixing politics with traditional rulership.
He probably took the money meant for his entire community thugs

Fp tinz. I dey all d fp today

YABA LEFT PATIENT PLENTY 4 DAT TOWN O

Stripped Nakèd? That's Barbaric

Na wah oh!!!
What is it with people setting Monarch's palace ablaze this days
Our culture & traditions are really going extinct... No more respect for Monarchs.
Well, since tradition rulers are now also involved in dirty politics, what do you expect.

Wahala dey

What is with this trend of hoodlums setting fire to palaces all over the country?!

some of these obas knew they are born again again Christians and have no desire to perpetualise any tradition and yet for vainglory will accept the role that demands idol worshipping. I once told a well know Nigerian chieftain who chooses to offer me an obaship rather than his own son who is in the same profession I am that if they accept all the chickens ,palm oil meant for the gods are to be taken to my kitchen and further accept that I will retraditionalise the town setting up new institutions and iscarding the old traditions I will accept to be the odemo of ishara.of course I know they will never accept so the case was permanently closed.

recently one well read ode remo woman was complaining about the brutal dismembering of the late village headmaster eleyinmin aka funsho adeolu who was the late king of ode .The issue is was the man ignorant of the fact that his corpse will be dragged round the town and dismembered before he accepted the kingship.

let us reject positions that we know we are not ready for and this is why we must ensure JOANTHAN is not re elected.

Shollyps: YABA LEFT PATIENT PLENTY 4 DAT TOWN O

shut ur stinking mouth up.......do u knw d genesis of the incident, my Ado pple no dey tolerate nonsense....whoever u maybe dey wuld spit on ur face if u step on their toes

Typical of the jihadist Govr. Aregbesola as recruited by tinubu to do the hachet job. All potential threat to APC in the south-west must be cleared in this grand-conspiracy.

Is this the latest trend

End time tinz....

Funny what some of us think or how we reason. Kings are made and enthroned by the kingmakers (Reps of the people) and loved by his people, who bring gifts and pay homeage. But when the king is forced on his people by powers that be, then the people bcome aggressive and sometimes violent. Take our nation as a case study.

Did the Oba ra*pe a youth corper? I read these Oba's have this strong thing for NYSC pompoms
