As the countdown to July 1st this year over the supreme court’s judgement on who should fill the stool of Olofa of Offa begins, the authorities of the state Police Command have expressed their readiness to guarantee peace and security, before, during and after the much awaited decision.
According to the spokesman of the command DSP Ajayi Okasanmi in a chat with our correspondent, Olarotimi Oshin,the police have met with stakeholders to accept the judgement without any malice or rancour.
Okasanmi who said the police are firmly on ground for the judgement, assured all the Offa people of police readiness to guarantee their safety.
The legal tussle in question is between the incumbent monarch, Oba Mufutau Gbadamosi and a contestant to the stool, Prince Abdulrahoof Keji.
Gbadamosi is of the Anilelerin ruling house, while Keji hails from Olugbense ruling house.
The Court of Appeal, Ilorin Division, upturned the judgment of the lower court, saying it was the turn of the Olugbense ruling house to present the next Olofa, while Anilelerin consequently headed to the apex court .
