The new Soun of Ogbomoso has been appointed as Prince Afolabi Ghandi Olaoye.
The DAILY POST learned that he was installed early on Friday.
According to OBASANJO NEWS24, Olaoye’s installation comes just after the Oyo State High Court instructed the state governor and others not to hand him the oath of office.
According to our source, the court, presided over by Justice K.A. Adedokun, also issued an order prohibiting Olaoye from parading, representing or presenting himself as the candidate for any ceremony for the issuance of a certificate of installation or wearing any regalia resembling that of the occupant of the stool of Soun of Ogbomoso Chieftaincy while the mandatory injunction already filed before the court is heard and decided.
However, the kingmakers, under the direction of the Areago of Ogbomoso, High Chief Sobalaje Otolorin, carried out Olaoye’s installation at Abata in Ogbomosjo.
Olaoye was installed as Soun of Ogbomoso by the kingmakers, who claimed that they had not yet received any court order prohibiting them from doing so.
