Court Sacks Anaje As Ohinoyi Of Ebiraland

A Kogi State High Court sitting in Lokoja, the State capital, has sacked the Ohinoyi of Ebiraland, Alhaji Ahmed Muhammed Tijani Anaje, from the royal stool.

Justice Salisu Umar, in his ruling on Monday, made an order barring Anaje from parading himself as the paramount traditional ruler of Ebiraland.

The suit marked HCO/05C/2024, was filed by Dr. Barnabas Adeku Ojiah and two others against the Governor of Kogi State.

THE WHISTLER reported that Anaje was appointed as Ohinoyi of Ebiraland by the former governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, in January 2024 at the twilight of his administration.

In an unexpected move, Bello rejected Mr. Ataba Sani-Omolori who was considered as the front-runner for Anaje, following the death of the former Ohinoyi, Ado Ibrahim.

Sources within the royal family had told THE WHISTLER that Governor Bello’s decision may be politically motivated as Omolori was not on good terms with the governor.

Court Sacks Anaje As Ohinoyi Of Ebiraland is first published on The Whistler Newspaper
