Monarch alleges bias in matter
The family of Theophilus Mabayoje Banjo, the landlord of the property, had approached the Assembly for intervention over the refusal of Oba Adams, owner of ‘Latris Fashion’, to vacate the premises after a court judgment had ordered him to do so. The delegation, which include the Director, Chieftaincy Affairs, Ministry of Local Government and Community Affairs, Mr Folami Aina and Co-ordinator of Lagos State Special Taskforce on Land Grabbers, Mr. Owolabi Arole, described the refusal of the monarch to honour the state’s directive as an abuse of office and blatant disrespect.
He said: “I want us to settle it amicably. We all know that the House of Assembly is not a court. So, I know what I can do. Another thing is that the House Committee chairman was not supposed to talk to me on phone like that because I am an Oba. He is disrespecting me. They are also becoming biased. The House is supporting the landlord. I know what I can do, I know my right.”
