Just In: Court Sacks RCCG Pastor Ghandi As Soun, Issues Directives To Makinde

The Oyo State High Court, which is located in Ogbomoso, has annulled the appointment of Oba Ghandi Olaoye as the new Soun of Ogbomoso.

Recall that Oyo State Government on the 8th of September, 2023, announced the ex RCCG Pastor Ghandi Olaoye as the new Soun of the land.

Before this time, one of the contestants, Kabir Laoye had sued Ghandi Olaoye, noting that he was not eligible to take Soun’s position.

The Oyo state High Court in Ogbomoso at the time had reportedly restrained Governor Seyi Makinde, the Attorney General of the State and Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters or anyone else from presenting any instrument of office in any form of ceremony or issuing certificate of installation to Olaoye until the final determination of the mandatory injunction already filed before the court.

The Areago High Chief, Sobalaje Otolorin, however, disclosed that the kingmakers were not aware of a restraining order by any court.
