IGP dragged to court over refusal to probe Alaafin

A new twist was Tuesday added to the face-off between the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi and two traditional Chiefs in Oyo town as the duo: Chiefs Jacob Oluokun and Sulaiman Ajiboye Ishola, have dragged the acting Inspector General of Police, Mr. Ibrahim Idris, before a Federal High Court, Ibadan Division over allegations of contempt arising from his refusal to carry out a lawful order of the court.

The applicants, who are both indigenous of Isale Oyo in the ancient town, prayed the court to commit the police boss to prison for allegedly refusing to obey an order of the same court which had directed him to investigate the monarch over some criminal allegations levelled against him by the traditional Chiefs.https://newtelegraphonline.com/igp-dragged-court-refusal-probe-alaafin/
