Controversy As Ilorin Emir Disowns Jebba Monarch by LegalAnalyst(m): 2:39am On Jul 13, 2016 |
The Chairman of the Kwara State Traditional Council, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, has disowned the Oba of Jebba, Alhaji AbdulKadir Alabi Adebara. Sulu-Gambari, who is the Emir of Ilorin, in a statement by the National Secretary of Shehu Alimi Foundation for Peace and Development, Mallam Abdulazeez Arowona, also said Adebara was impersonating, saying he was claiming to be the Oba of Jebba. He also stated that the claim that Jebba was not in Ilorin Emirate was untrue. Reacting to the question of whether Jebba was in the Ilorin Emirate or not, the Emir said this could be confirmed through his lieutenants in persons of the District Head of Lanwa, Alhaji Sa’adu Gambari; the District Head of Ejidongari, Alhaji Issa Oloruntogun; and the District Head of Ipaiye, Alhaji Isiaka Yusuf, all in Moro Local Government Area of Kwara State. The Jebba community had, in a media briefing, said Sulu-Gambari had refused to come to terms with the reality that Adebara is a third-class graded traditional ruler in Jebba. The speech, which was read by the Gbobaniyi of Jebba, Chief Jaiyeola Omotosho, was signed by Asoju-Oba of Jebba, Chief Yakubu Ayodele, and Otun-Oba of Jebba, Chief Emmanuel Tytler. Omotosho said the court had affirmed Adebara as the Oba of Jebba. He said, “Earler in 1989, in Suit No. KWS/231/89, Saka Adeyemi & 2 Ors Vs Alhaji Laaro Isale Oja & 2 Ors, Justice J.A. Ibiwoye had held that Moro LG was not part of Ilorin Emirate. But the Emir won’t just let go and he has been succeeding, because the political leadership in Kwara State has been aiding and abetting him. “The bottom line has been the refusal of the Emir of Ilorin to come to terms with the reality of a third-class graded traditional ruler in Jebba, which he considers an aberration in a contraption called Emirate system, even though it has been judicially pronounced that Moro is not under him.” Omotosho also accused the Deputy Speaker of the Kwara State House of Assembly, Mr. Matthew Okedare, of attempting to assassinate Adebara. He alleged that the deputy speaker recruited and sponsored hoodlums that attacked the Oba after the Eid-el-Fitri prayers on Wednesday, July 6. According to him, three people died while 12 people received varying degrees of injuries during the attack. He stated that preliminary investigation revealed that the attackers were allegedly recruited by members of Okedare family, including the Deputy Speaker, Kwara State House of Assembly, Mr. Mathew Okedare; the Clerk, Kwara State House of Assembly, Mr. Simon Okedare; and Principal, Government Secondary School, Jebba, Mr. Kayode Okedare. But the deputy speaker denied all the allegations against him and his siblings, saying they were politically motivated. He also absolved the Clerk of the state House of Assembly, Simon, of any culpability in the so-called attack. Source:http://punchng.com/controversy-ilorin-emir-disowns-jebba-monarch/ 1 Like |

Bottom line of this story is that the How can a common name like "Okedare" even be royal compared to "ADE bara"? For those who care, here is Kwara state and Jebba town in relation to Ilorin the capital, and Nigeria at large. ![]() 2 Likes 2 Shares |
