AbdurRaheem said: “As a rejoinder to the Press Conference titled ‘Imbroglio in Ogbomosoland: Need to Avoid Instigating Violence and Insubordination against Constituted Authorities’ held on June 29, 2024, by a coalition of few members of Ogbomoso Special Committee on Islamic Affairs, alongside absconded members of the Imam-in-Council, dissenting members of the League of Imams and Alfas and aggrieved members of Ayilara Family, Ogbomoso Muslim Youth Forum under the chairmanship of Alhaji Ishaq...

“And on the occasion when Ogbomoso Muslim Youth Forum sought dialogue with the king long before the issue escalated, they were unceremoniously sent out of the palace. The late Soun, Oba Jimoh Oladunni Oyewumi Ajagungbade III formed this Special Committee on Islamic Affairs in his capacity as a Muslim stakeholder to enable the community to benefit from their resources and influence towards advancing Islam.
