The Ibadan Council of Obas has issued a 21-day deposition notice to the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Adetunji, accusing him of acts unbecoming of his office as the paramount ruler of the ancient town.
The traditional rulers led by Oba Lekan Balogun, the Otun Olubadan of Ibadanland, gave the notice on Monday at a press conference at the Mapo Hall, Ibadan.
Among the many allegations levelled against the monarch was taking actions on behalf of the council without inputs from members.
They also accused him of inciting the people against the state government, saying this was not representative of the relationship between the council and the government.
The Obas also queried the meetings of the Olubadan-in-Council, saying they were not conducted properly.
They further accused the Olubadan of allowing interests within and outside the palace to manipulate him to their own advantage.
