The Olubadan Of Ibadanland, Oba Lekan Balogun, Alli Okunmade Ii Has Condenmed The Disruptive Activities Of The Supporters Of Some Prospective Mogajis And Baales Who Were Billed For Installation Yesterday At The Aliiwo Ruling House In Ibadan .
Oba Balogun, In A Statement Signed On His Behalf By His Personal Assistant (Media), Oladele Ogunsola Expressed Disappointment At The Unruly Behaviour Of The Supporters Of The Prospective Chiefs, Which He Said Led To The Abrupt End Of The Programme Shortly After The Installation Of Only Three Out Of 10 Chiefs Slated For The Day.
The Installation Exercise Of New Mogajis And Baales Was For 10 New Chiefs, Consisting Of Five Mogajis And Baales Apiece, But Which Could Not Be Completed Due To The Storming Of The Venue Of The Installation By Some Undesirable Elements.
Oba Balogun, Who Reiterated His Commitment To Equity, Fairness And Justice In The Exercise Of His Traditional Role Maintained That Whoever, After Thorough Investigation Of The Incident Is Found Culpable Among His Staff On Whatever Might Have Led To The Ugly Disruption Would Be Properly Sanctioned.
He Empathized With The Other Chiefs, Who Had No Contentious Issue, But, Whose Installation Could Not Be Performed Due To The Disruption Caused By The Miscreants, Assuring Them That What Happened Was A Mere Delay And Not Denial, Adding, “Their Installation Would Be Performed Unfailingly At The Next Exercise”.
