The Indigenes of Olorunda Community of Oke-Ogun Local Council Development Area in Ogun State, have accused the traditional ruler of the community, Oba Segun Ogunsola, for allegedly turning deaf ears to Government directives that barred him from parading himself as a monarch.
Oba Ogunsola was among the 75 coronet Obas recently installed by former Governor Ibikunle Amosun at the twilight of his administration.
The Obas have, however, been suspended by the Dapo Abiodun-led Ogun State Government, pending the recommendations of the committee set up by Abiodun.

Ekohotblog garnered that Ogunsola had in 2015 been deposed as a Baale by the Ogun State Government, causing confusion as to why a deposed Baale could be upgraded to a coronet Oba.
His deposition, was contained in a circular with reference number CHM1/47/T/246, through the Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs.
The circular dated July 23, 2015 and signed by O. A. Aderinwale said that Ogunsola parading himself as Baale would amount to violation of relevant provisions of the Chiefs Law of Ogun State, adding that “any illegality will be dealt with decisively.”
