CONCERNED IREE INGEGENES WARN AGAINST IMPOSITION OF NEW AREE
Concerned indegenes of Iree in Boripe local government area of Osun State have sounded a note of warning to some kingmakers to desist from imposing a new Aree on the community.
This was contained in a statement made by Mr. Timothy Gboye during an exclusive chat with Nigerian Platform in Osogbo on Monday.
Mr Timothy, speaking on behalf of the concerned Iree indegenes, home and in the diaspora, alleged that some kingmakers are being sponsored to impose one Prince Depo Akande based in United States of America, as the new monarch of the town.
Recall that the community is eagerly awaiting the white paper of the Osun State Government to proceed with the enthronement of new Aree.
According to Mr. Timothy, “it has come to the knowledge of all Iree sons and daughters home and all over the world that the Iree Progressive Association (IPA) Lagos State Branch and some unscrupulous Kingmakers in Iree town are planning to cause mayhem, chaos and serious havoc in Iree”.
“As they are lobbying and trying endlessly to impose one Prince Depo Akande from Oyetite Ruling House, which preceded late Oba Michael Omoloye Omotoso before the late Oba Jimoh Olayoonu Larooye who joined his ancestors in 2018 was enthroned”.
Mr Timothy said that the IPA Lagos State branch and some kingmakers in Iree should please desist from the act of destabilizing Iree, because of selfish motives.
He said “Iree had Six (6) Ruling Houses but how come that it will now be the turn of Oyetite Ruling House again where Oba Michael Omoloye Omotoso came from, that will produce the next Aree of Iree?”.
He urged the State Governor, Sen. Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke to be aware of this development and also warned those Kingmakers not to cause another problem or unrest in Iree at this time.
According to him, “everyone should allow the Kingmakers who have the genuine love for Iree to do their job without any bias, favour or interference”.
