Epe Residents Seek Governor Sanwo-Olu's Intervention in Prolonged Obaship Crisis
Epe residents are seeking urgent intervention from Governor Sanwo-Olu to address a prolonged Obaship crisis following the death of Olu of Epe, Shefiu Olatunji Adewale. The succession dispute has led to heightened tensions and a lack of traditional leadership, impacting peace and stability in the historic town.
Despite efforts by elders and prominent figures, no resolution has been reached, causing frustration among the youth. The situation escalated during the last Eid celebrations, leading to security concerns and the suspension of prayers.
Youth groups and religious bodies have submitted petitions to the state government, urging swift action to prevent further unrest.
