Owa Of Idanre: IDA Sues For Calm, Assures Of Free, Fair Process




The President-General, Idanre Development Assembly (IDA), Dr Anthony A Omolola, has assured the people of Idanre that there will be fairness and  transparency in the process of selecting a new Owa of Idanre to pilot the affairs of the ancient kingdom in Ondo State.

Omolola gave this  assurance against the insinuations and complaints by some individuals over the ongoing process.

He assured the  sons and daughters of Idanre Kingdom, home and abroad that the kingmakers, being people of character and integrity, will select the right candidate based on culture and tradition in a free, fair and transparent process, which all Idanre people will be proud of.

While declaring that the preoccupation of the kingmakers is to select a candidate who will serve the interests of Idanre  people and take the Kingdom to greater heights, Omolola called for calm among Makanres, saying that they should be rest assured that their interests will be protected.

He said: "As the process for selecting the new Owa of Idanre goes on, there is a need to calm frayed nerves.

"As the foremost Idanre sociocultural organisation, we are in constant touch with the kingmakers and they have given assurances that nothing will be done to tarnish the image of the kingdom.

"Obviously, Idanre people do not need an Owa that will drag us backwards, but one that will take us forward, and to heights we have hitherto not attained and i believe God will make a choice for us through the Kingmakers.

"God will surely  give us a good leader. We urge our people to be calm, as the process will be transparent, and the right candidate who will serve the community will emerge. 

"The kingmakers will follow due process and we urge our people to give necessary support at this juncture."

A devious plot orchestrated by former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), and disgraced ex-Representative Muhammad Shehu Koko to destabilise Kebbi State has spectacularly backfired. The duo, now prominent figures in the African Democratic Congress (ADC), allegedly imported notorious bandits and thugs to wreak havoc in the state, only to be met with fierce resistance from enraged residents and loyal All Progressives Congress (APC) supporters. The incident, which unfolded on Monday in Birnin Kebbi, has exposed the underhanded tactics of Malami and Koko, revealing a sordid pact rooted in political desperation and criminal collusion. According to multiple sources, Malami and Koko, both recent defectors from the APC to the ADC, conspired to unleash chaos in Kebbi State to bolster their fledgling political relevance.
