The Oyo government has exposed one of the suspected culprits behind illegal mining activities in the state. This development was revealed by the Commissioner for Information and Civic Orientation, Prince Dotun Oyelade. It was gathered that the recently suspended monarch, Oba Gbolagade Muritala Babalola (Gbadewolu I), was linked to illegal mining.
The Commissioner for Information and Civic Orientation, Prince Dotun Oyelade, emphasised that the Oyo State Government will take decisive action against anyone who violates the law, regardless of status. Oyelade addressed the suspension of Oba Gbolagade Muritala Babalola (Gbadewolu I), the Onido of Ido land, stating that the government's decision serves as a warning to those involved in criminal activities within the state.
He mentioned that the suspension of the Onido of Ido land, Oba Gbolagade Muritala Babalola (Gbadewolu I), was based on intelligence connecting him to illegal mining in the Ido local government area.
Notably, through a letter dated February 2, 2024, signed by Commissioner Olusegun Olayiwola, the government announced Governor Seyi Makinde’s approval of the suspension on February 1, 2024.
