Six traditional chiefs have been dethroned in Lagos State for attending the campaign flag-off of the Labour Party (LP) in Apapa ahead of the upcoming local government elections
The Ojora of Ijora and Iganmu Kingdom, Oba AbdulFatai Oyegbemi, announced their removal on Monday during a palace meeting, stating that the chiefs attended the political event without his knowledge or consent.
Oba Oyegbemi also accused the chiefs of breaching palace protocols by impersonating him at the event, an act he described as a serious violation of traditional norms.
The affected chiefs are Chief Taiwo Hassan (Bale Oke Ira), Chief Saliu Biliamin (Bale Alafia Dodoro), Chief Lateef Ojora (Bale Alaba Oro), Chief Idris Ojora (Bale Abule Kere), Chief Sule Balogun (Balogun of Abule Kere), and Chief Hakeem Oseni (Bale Mosafejo Amukoko).
In a statement issued by the palace, the monarch explained that the decision to dethrone them was necessary to maintain order and preserve the integrity of his leadership structure.
