Court declares Oyetola’s appointment illegal, affirms Masifa’s stool vacant

Justice Oyejide Falola of Osun State High Court has nullified Governor Gboyega Oyetola’s chieftaincy appointment and declared it illegal.

According to a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Civic Orientation, Funke Egbemode, last week disclosed the stool Olaaresa of Masifa became vacant on April 23, 2018 following the death of Dr. Mathew Olayiwola Oyekale. Earlier, on August 25, Jusice Falola gave an order for setting aside all the processes leading to the selection, nomination, appointment and installation of Prince Awolade, 2nd Defendant/Respondent in the suit to fill the vacant stool of Olaaresa of Masifa-Ile or any agency of Osun State Government during the Pendency of this suit pending the hearing and determination of Motion on Notice.

However, the court today ruled that the position of the Law is that once parties are served, or aware of the pendency of a suit, all, without exception, should await the outcome, and abide thereof, the decision of the court.
