Soun: Court Grants Stay Of Execution On Oba Ghandi’s Sacking

The Oyo State High Court sitting in Ogbomoso, on Monday, granted a stay of execution to Oba Ghandi Olaoye as the duly elected Soun of Ogbomosoland.

Our correspondent reports that the stool became a subject of legal tussle after Oba Olaoye’s appointment as the Soun was nullified by the court over a procedural flaw in his nomination.

The presiding Judge, Justice Kareem  Adedokun, while issuing the order, in suit no HOG/27/2022, directed all the parties to maintain the status quo ante pending the hearing and determination of the appeal already filed by the defence of Oba Olaoye and the Oyo State Government.
