The embattled Olorile of Orile-Ifo, Oba Abdulsemiu Adewale Ogunjobi, has been grilled by the Ogun Police Command, for assaulting one of his chiefs, Mr. Areola Abraham and subjecting him to verbal abuse.
A trending video showed Mr Areola Abraham prostrating before Oba Ogunjobi who could be heard verbally attacking the elderly man.
He also allegedly shoved the man’s cap off his head in a humiliating manner, and alleged uncivil conduct that compelled the Ogun State Government to swiftly suspend him for six months.
Given the gravity of the incident, the Commissioner of Police, CP Lanre Ogunlowo, ordered a thorough and discreet investigation into the matter, assuring that the rule of law and fundamental human rights principles in the instant case would be enforced.
