Breaking News: High Court Dismisses Injunction Against Oba Shekoni As New Osolo
. Adjourns Suit To Nov. 28
A High Court sitting in Sabo, Yaba has dismissed an injunction against the installation of the new Osolo, Oba Issa Abiodun Olakunle Faronbi-Shekoni.
Presiding Judge, Justice Ezekiel Oluwole Ashade of Yaba High Court on Monday 3rd Movement 2025 while ruling on the injunction sought by Prince Jimmy Adetokunbo Goloba against the installation of Oba Shekoni ruled that the arguments averred by the claimants were not strong enough to grant the injunction.
Prince Goloba in his reliefs had sought an injunction against Oba Shekoni's installation as the new Osolo; a restraining order of the court against Shekoni from parading himself as the new Osolo as well as his outright removal from the throne.
In his defence, Oba Shekoni prayed the court to dismiss the suit for lack of jurisdiction even as he posited that the court lack competence to adjudicate over the suit.
After hearing motions and arguments from both parties, Justice Ashade ruled that the arguments put up by the claimant's counsel, Prof Fagbohun (SAN) were not convincing enough to grant an injunction.
He, therefore, dismissed their claim but rather expressed his willingness to grant an accelerated hearing of the suit.
Following due consultation with both parties, the judge adjourned the matter to 28th November 2025 and 5th December 2025 for the commencement of the substantive suit.
Oba Shekoni was installed as the new Osolo of Isolo by the commissioner for local government, chieftaincy affairs and rural development, Hon. Kayode Roberts at a closed ceremony held at the state secretariat, Alausa on 28th March 2025 after the demise of the former monarch, Oba Kabir Adelaja Agbabiaka who joined his ancestors in 2024.
