The newly installed 21 monarchs in Ibadan yesterday gave the Olubadan, Oba Saliu Adetunji 21-day ultimatum to support the chieftaincy declaration review by Governor Abiola Ajimobi or be deposed.
At a press conference in Ibadan, the monarchs led by Otun Olubadan, Oba Lekan Balogun said they issued final note of caution to Oba Adetunji whose action they described as inimical to the progress of the town.
They alleged that Olubadan had committed several offences that should have compelled them to immediately passed a vote of no confidence on him. If that happens, his deposition will commence immediately.
The new rulers had been in a running battle with Olubadan since August 28 this year when they were elevated and crowned by the governor. But Olubadan had refused to recognize them as monarchs, insisting that their elevation was contrary to the customs and tradition of Ibadanland.
