The Court of Appeal sitting in Akure, Ondo State, on Monday restrained Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, from taking further action on the Akirun of Ikirun chieftaincy matter pending the determination of an appeal before the court.
The court specifically ordered parties to maintain the status quo regarding the stool occupied by Olalekan Akadiri.
The Osun State Government had earlier declared the stool vacant and directed parties involved in the dispute to await the outcome of the pending appeal.
The decision was contained in white papers issued by the state government following reports of committees set up to review issues arising from executive orders signed by Adeleke in November 2022.
