Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, CON, has dismissed reports alleging a clash between him and the Council of Afobajes over the Awujale selection process, describing such claims as false and misleading.
Sources say the Governor held a peaceful and consultative meeting with the Afobajes, focused on unity and the progress of traditional affairs in Ijebuland.
The Governor did not issue threats or ultimatums. Claims such as “No Kuye, No Awujale” are entirely fabricated and did not come from the Governor or his administration.
Governor Abiodun reaffirmed his commitment to due process, respect for traditional institutions, and a fair selection process, urging the public to rely on verified information from official sources.
The governor remains committed to upholding due process, respecting the autonomy of traditional institutions, and ensuring a fair process in the selection of a new Awujale for Ijebu.
His administration continues to prioritize dialogue, harmony, and the preservation of cultural values.
We all know how highly the Governor holds the throne of Awujale which he has consistently demonstrated.
Members of the public, traditional stakeholders, and the media are urged to disregard these unfounded insinuations and rely solely on verified information from official sources.
