Six chiefs in Lagos State have been dethroned for attending the campaign flag-off of the Labour Party, LP, in Apapa ahead of the Lagos State local government polls.
Those affected are Chief Taiwo Hassan (Bale Oke Ira), Chief Saliu Biliamin (Bale Alafia Dodoro) and Chief Lateef Ojora (Bale Alaba Oro).
Others are Chief Idris Ojora (Bale Abule Kere), Chief Sule Balogun (Balogun of Abule Kere) and Chief Hakeem Oseni (Bale Mosafejo Amukoko).
The Ojora of Ijora and Iganmu Kingdom, Oba AbdulFatai Oyegbemi, on Monday took the decision to dethrone six chiefs.
Oba Oyegbemi called a palace meeting, in which he made it clear that they went for the event without his consent.
He also accused them of violating palace protocols by impersonating him at the event.
In a statement released by the place, Oba Oyegbemi explained that he dethroned the six chiefs in a bid to maintain “order and coherence within his leadership structure”.
