Adeleke's Directive Sparks Talks of Dethronement for Jailed Monarch in Nigeria

Adeleke ordered the commissioner to handle the monarch's case, leading to uncertainty surrounding the monarch's fate. The ruling house princes welcomed the governor's intervention to prevent the throne from remaining vacant after the monarch completes his jail term.
The state government is awaiting the Certified True Copy of the judgment before taking further action on the embattled monarch's throne.
