CITIZENS COMPASS – The Ogun State Government has sent Oba Abdulsemiu Adewale Ogunjobi, the Olorile of Orile-Ifo, on six months suspension for assaulting a man.
Recall that a video went viral over the weekend, wherein a man knelt down by the roadside facing molestation from a man perceived to be the traditional ruler.
The decision to suspend the monarch was made when the Honourable Commissioner, Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, invited the monarch and his victim for interrogation.
The monarch was later suspended to serve as a deterrent to others.
Not only this, he was barred from parading himself as the Olorile-Ifo, pending the outcome of the investigation.
Meanwhile, the monarch has been invited by the Police.
The monarch was reported to be a retired police officer, boasting about his influence over the Nigeria Police and threatening to send the chief to jail without consequences.
