A court has reportedly declared the process that led to Chief Taiwo Lamina Opeifa’s elevation to the position of Oba of Agboyi 2 in Agboyi-Ketu Local Council Development Area (LCDA), Kosofe, Lagos State, null and void.
The ruling centres on the legality of the process through which Chief Opeifa, listed as the fifth defendant in the case, was elevated to the status of Oba.
According to the details provided, the court found that the elevation did not comply with Sections 25 and 26 of the Obas and Chiefs of Lagos State Law, 2015.
The decision marks a significant development in the Agboyi 2 traditional leadership dispute, raising questions about the legal procedures governing the recognition and elevation of traditional rulers in Lagos State.
Further details of the judgment, including the court’s specific orders and the implications for the Agboyi 2 traditional institution, are expected to emerge.
