Nollywood actor and filmmaker, Jide Kosoko
Justice Olalekan Oresanya of the Lagos State High Court has ordered parties involved in the dispute over the Oloja of Lagos chieftaincy stool to maintain the status quo pending the determination of the substantive suit.
The judge gave the order after dismissing a preliminary objection filed by Prince Babajide Kosoko, who challenged the court’s jurisdiction to entertain the case.
The objection was supported by the first defendant, the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu.
The suit was filed by the Head of the Akinsanya Olojo Ruling House, Prince Surajudeen Olojo-Kosoko; the ruling house’s General Secretary, Prince Theophilus Olojo-Kosoko; and Prince Abiola Kosoko, on behalf of themselves and the Akinsanya Olojo-Kosoko Ruling House.
