The Oyo State High Court sitting in Ogbomoso has ordered the removal of the new Soun, King Ghandi Olaoye.

Recall that Oyo state Government announced the selection of RCCG Pastor Ghandi Olaoye and he is installed king on the 8th of September, 2023.

Another contender for the stool, Laoye Kabir had earlier queried Ghandi’s selection claiming he is not eligible for the throne adding that there is discrepancies in the selection. It was also gathered that a  court injunction had called for the stop of Ghandi’s installation of which Oyo state Government ignored.

Delivering his judgment, Justice Adedokun announced that the selection of Ghandi Olaoye is illegal and ordered that the Ogbomoso king makers begin a new process to select an Oba.
