Seventy-Two hours after an Ogun monarch, the Alagodo of Agodo, in Ewekoro Local Government Area of Ogun State, Oba Ayinde Odetola, was murdered, controversy has erupted over his true status.

Residents of the village told journalists that the killings followed a clash over the chieftaincy title of the Alagodo. The late monarch was from the Ake section of Egba while the village he was installed on is mostly dominated by Owu people. While the Owu traditional council claimed that the late monarch was not known in the community as a traditional ruler, but a land speculator, the Ake traditional council said his appointment was approved by the state government with effect from April 11, 2018.
