An Osun State Chief Magistrate Court has issued a warrant
of arrest against a first class traditional ruler in the state, the
Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi after he failed to show up in
court to defend allegations against him
Making Money Through “Yahoo Yahoo”
Adeoye had approached the Magistrate Court accusing the Oluwo of
Iwo, Oba Akanbi ,of concealing some facts about his past to the state government when
he was installed as a first class monarch about a year ago
Oluwo-Oke in a 33-paragraph affidavit said Oba Akanbi’s character did
not befit a person of his status and calibre as he was used to carrying
armed thugs, miscreants and hoodlums around to harass, intimidate,
molest and attack persons whom he perceived as his enemies
He further alleged that Oba Akanbi forged his name to obtain
travelling documents to the United States where he was jailed in New
York City and deported to Nigeria in year 2000
He added that Oba Akanbi later travelled out with his real name to
Canada in 2001 and became a Canadian citizen but was also arrested in
Toronto and was in jail between 2006 and 2007
These facts were concealed for the state government which appointed and installed him as the Oluwo of Iwo,” the suit read.
He also accused him of presently making money through the internet
fraud otherwise known as “Yahoo Yahoo” and was using his palace as a
cover-up.
But Oba Akanbi reacted to these allegations in a 13 paragraph
affidavits through the Aremo of Iwo land, Mr Adelani Akanbi, describing
the application filed against the Oluwo of Iwo by Oba Adeoye as
“scandalous, vexations and designed to embarrass, blackmail and ridicule
the monarch in the view of right thinking members of the society”
