Obawale's Allegations Against Oba Toriola Fabricated, Frivolous, Unfounded
Our attention has been drawn to a frivolous allegation skillfully woven together by one Mr Adeyinka Adeshina Obawale who has been fraudulently addressing himself as 'Oba Adeyinka Adeshina Obawale, the Oluoje of Ojenpetu, alleging that the Ogunsua of Modakeke, HRM Oba Joseph Olu Toriola Ajibise Ogo 1 and some of the leaders of our community of orchestrating violent attacks on him and his cohort.
We state categorically and unequivocally that the unsubstantiated allegations of an attempt on his life against the Ogunsua is a blatant lie. The alleged attempt on his life and destruction of property by the self-styled monarch who relocated with his displaced community from Gadumo in Kogi State should be discountenanced as it is a ploy to malign the character and integrity of our revered traditional ruler.
Kabiyesi Toriola is knowledgeable and well connected and acutely aware that it is criminal for anyone, irrespective of his status, to take the laws into his hand.
We would not have bothered to dignify the frivolous allegation with a response if not for the fact that a lie persistently repeated might be taken for the truth by those who are not privileged to have access to authentic information about the issue at stake.
It is the statutory duty of the police to keep law and order in society.
We wonder why Mr Olawale is blaming the Ogunsua and other members of his community for his collision with security agents.
The earlier the self-styled 'Oluoje of Ojenpetu' realises that he is not capable of being used to destroy the person of our monarch and community by his sponsor, the better it will be for him. The concerted efforts of his ill-conceived mission to export cataclysm into our community have fallen like a pack of cards.
The allegation of Obawale that our peace-loving monarch is discriminating against the Fulani people is a blatant lie from the pit of hell.
The Modakeke community has, all along, been home to all Nigerians.
What our community abhors is the harbouring of enemies of peace who we would not hesitate to hand over to security agents with a view to separating the law breakers from the peace-loving people.
If anyone thinks our Kabiyesi would close his eyes and fold his hands while his community would be turned to a refuge or a training ground for bandits, cattle rustlers, kidnappers, armed robbers etc, such a person is making a mistake. Our monarch and community leaders will not cease to continue to be focussed on peace and security in order to compliment the efforts of the local, state and Federal Governments to bring enduring peace to the nation.
While we appeal to the Inspector-General of Police, the Director-general of the DSS, the National Security Adviser to extend their attention to the issue at stake, the Kabiyesi has briefed his lawyers to take a legal action against the unscrupulous individual whose mission is to malign his character.
