Osolo
The Alagbeji royal family of Isolo kingdom in Lagos State has raised the alarm over the activities of impostors misinforming the public that they have the backing of the family regarding the Osolo throne.
Speaking with journalists in Lagos, the head of the family (Olori Ebi), Alhaji Taorid Faronbi, popularly known as Alado decried how impostors desperate to occupy the throne are using all sorts of unwholesome tricks to hoodwink unsuspecting members of the public
According to him, such people have been going about alleging that he signed letters endorsing certain persons vying for the Isolo throne.
Faronbi emphasized that this was untrue as he only signed letters affirming Alhaji Saheed Ishola Aregbeshola from the Alagbe branch of the family for the vacant Stool.
“For the records, and the attention of Governor of Babajide Sanwo–Olu, Deputy Governor, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, and Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, I, Alhaji Taorid Faronbi, head of, Alagbeji royal family of Isolo kingdom hereby declare unequivocally that the only candidate whose nomination I forwarded to the authorities is Alhaji Saheed Aregbeshola.
