Deposed Balogun Loses Bid to Reclaim Title [Corrected]
A High Court in Ilorin on Wednesday struck out a suit filed by the deposed Balogun Gambari of Ilorin, Alhaji Laaro Olohuntoyin, challenging his removal by the Emir of IIorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari.
The deposed Balogun and two others had in November 2005 dragged the Emir to court over the removal.
But in his ruling, Justice Matthew Adewara said the matter raised in the case was defective, stressing that the writ was signed by an unknown person to the court.
Adewara also ruled that the court lacks jurisdiction to entertain the matter and advised the aggrieved parties to look elsewhere to settle their grouse.
The judge, however, counselled the deposed Balogun and other parties not to toy with the harmonious relationship existing in the state.
