Wahala Don Set for Ipele! Youths Accuse Monarch of Hosting Gunmen Before Police Station Was Attacked

Wahala don really set for Ipele town in Ondo State as angry youths have petitioned Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, accusing their traditional ruler, the Olupele of Ipele, Oba Samuel Oluwashola Adesanmi Daramola, of harbouring hooded gunmen who allegedly fired shots inside his palace just hours before the Ipele Police Station was attacked and burnt.

In a strongly worded petition dated January 2026 and sent to the Governor’s Office, the concerned youths said they were alarmed by what they described as the monarch’s conduct, which they believe is threatening peace and security in the community.

The youths first praised the state government for its intervention after the New Year’s Eve attack on the Ipele Police Station on December 31, 2025. But they warned that deeper issues within the town, allegedly linked to the palace, could make things worse if urgent action is not taken.

According to the petition, the Olupele has barely stayed in Ipele since he was crowned over a year ago, frequently travelling to Lagos and the United Kingdom, where he lived before becoming king. The youths said this absence has weakened traditional leadership and damaged cooperation between the community and security agencies.

They further alleged that the monarch is constantly at war with local youths and even elites in the diaspora, creating tension and slowing down the town’s socio-economic development. “Kabiyesi is not at peace with the majority of youths,” the petitioners claimed, adding that he often quarrels with people he sees as enemies.

The youths also raised allegations of financial misconduct, accusing the monarch of removing or suspending chiefs without clear reasons and being overly interested in money matters. They cited a case where a ₦1 million donation meant for electricity restoration was allegedly diverted to a project that residents cannot verify.

Market disputes were also mentioned. The petition said the Olupele was recently attacked at Joks Market after allegedly trying to take over revenue collection, a role normally handled by the local government. His agents were also accused of collecting money from tipper drivers, nearly leading to violent clashes.

More disturbing allegations followed. The youths claimed that a young woman accused the monarch of impregnating her and pressuring her to abort the pregnancy, allegedly out of fear that his wife in the UK would react violently. They insisted that “cogent evidence is available.”

But the most explosive accusation was about security. The youths alleged that the monarch parades armed men, fires gunshots inside his palace whenever he is in town, and has previously used gunmen to threaten residents. They said a matter involving these armed men is already under investigation at the office of the Assistant Inspector General of Police in Akure.

They further claimed that during a palace party on the night of December 31, 2025, hooded gunmen were allegedly firing shots “at the pleasure of the kabiyesi.” Shockingly, about two hours later, armed men reportedly stormed and set the Ipele Police Station ablaze.

To many in the town, the timing raised serious questions.

The New Year’s Eve attack, carried out by about 20 to 30 gunmen using rifles and explosives, left the police station badly damaged and threw the community into panic. Residents fled their homes, church services were disrupted, and fear spread across Ipele, although no casualties were recorded.

The youths described the monarch’s alleged actions as “unbecoming of a first-class Oba in Ondo State” and appealed to Governor Aiyedatiwa to urgently order a discreet but full-scale investigation into the matter. They also asked that the Olupele be cautioned to prevent further breakdown of law and order.

The petition was signed by Ibrahim Japheth and Olorunfunmi Oladotun on behalf of the Concerned Youths of Ipele, with copies sent to the Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, the police, DSS, and other security agencies.

As Nigerians digest these shocking claims, one thing is clear:
This matter no be small one. If even half of these allegations be true, then wahala don truly set for Ipele—and Ondo State government must act fast before things spoil pass this.

Ondo State Judiciary Paralyzed: Governor Aiyedatiwa Accused of Budget Cuts, Half-Autonomy, and Welfare Neglect Amid Ongoing Court Strike

The Ondo State judiciary has come to a near-total halt as Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa faces accusations of deliberately strangling the courts through severe budget cuts, partial financial autonomy, and neglect of judicial welfare. The state’s judiciary budget was slashed from ₦17 billion in 2025 to ₦9.5 billion in 2026, nearly a 45% reduction, prompting concerns over staff salaries, court operations, and infrastructure decay.

Judicial workers allege that the governor granted only 80% autonomy limited to recurrent expenditure, leaving capital projects unfunded. Courtrooms reportedly leak during rainfall, forcing the suspension of hearings, while magistrates and officers rely on commercial motorcycles (okada) or shared rides with litigants due to lack of official vehicles.

Despite repeated appeals, ₦400 million previously approved for judicial needs remains unpaid, worsening the crisis. The situation has triggered an indefinite strike by magistrates, legal officers, and members of the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN), physically locking judges out of court premises in Akure.

Observers warn that the prolonged paralysis undermines judicial independence, public confidence in the justice system, and rule of law in Ondo State. Legal analysts describe the governor’s approach as a systematic humiliation and underfunding of the judiciary, drawing parallels with similar crises in other Nigerian states.

With courts shut, staff unions united, and the public left without access to justice, pressure is mounting on Governor Aiyedatiwa to restore full financial autonomy, fund infrastructure projects, and address welfare challenges to prevent further erosion of democratic governance in the state.

Is Ondo’s Governor Above the Law? Outrage as Commissioner Decorates Gov Aiyedatiwa at Public Event Despite Court Order for Her Arrest

Is the rule of law being deliberately undermined in Ondo State, and why was a commissioner facing a court-ordered arrest allowed to appear publicly with the governor?

Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa has come under intense public criticism after his Commissioner for Women Affairs, Mrs Seun Osamaye, was seen participating in an official state event and decorating him with the 2026 National Armed Forces Remembrance Emblem, despite a subsisting court order directing her arrest and remand.

The controversy stems from a ruling delivered on December 31, 2025, by a Magistrate Court in Ondo State, which ordered the arrest and imprisonment of Mrs Osamaye over allegations of assault, intimidation, and threats against a serving Chief Magistrate, Mrs Temitope Alphonso. According to court records, the commissioner was accused of verbally and physically confronting the magistrate during an official visit to the Ministry of Women Affairs following a judgment that was reportedly unfavourable to her.

Public outrage erupted after photographs of the commissioner at Wednesday’s event circulated on social media. Legal commentators noted that no court order had vacated or overturned the ruling, and that the magistrates’ indefinite strike in Ondo State made it impossible for any judicial review to have lawfully taken place. “The order remains valid and enforceable,” one observer said, describing the public appearance as “a slap on the judiciary.”

Critics questioned how a public official facing a lawful arrest order could be allowed to take part in a high-profile state function—especially one honouring the governor, who is constitutionally bound to uphold the law. “How can a governor permit an appointee who ought to be in custody to decorate him in public?” one source asked, calling the episode “a show of shame” and evidence of “disrespect and disregard for the rule of law.”

Court documents allege that Mrs Osamaye verbally abused and threatened Magistrate Alphonso, reportedly telling her to “shut up,” referring to her as “a mere magistrate,” and boasting that even the Chief Judge of Ondo State could not challenge her authority. The affidavit further claims she issued threats suggesting the magistrate could be made to “go missing,” actions described as intimidation and abuse of political influence.

Mrs Osamaye failed to appear in court on the hearing date. Her counsel submitted a medical report claiming she was receiving treatment, but the presiding magistrate, Mr Damilola Sekoni, rejected the document for lacking essential details. He subsequently ordered her arrest and remand, citing what he described as a clear disregard for the authority of the court, and adjourned the matter to January 12.

The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Akure Branch, has since called on Governor Aiyedatiwa to suspend the commissioner to allow her face prosecution without interference. The NBA warned that the alleged conduct, if proven, constitutes a direct attack on judicial independence and a dangerous erosion of public confidence in the justice system.

The episode has raised urgent questions:
Did the Ondo State Government knowingly disregard a valid court order?
What message does this send about accountability and equality before the law?
And can public trust in the judiciary survive when court directives appear openly defied?

As legal bodies demand action and citizens express outrage, the controversy has become a critical test of rule of law, separation of powers, and democratic accountability in Ondo State.

Ondo Lawmakers to Spend ₦80 Million on Telephone Calls in 2026 Amid Criticism Over Luxuries
January 7, 2026 – Ondo State, Nigeria

A review of the 2026 Ondo State budget shows that the House of Assembly plans to spend ₦80 million on telephone calls, averaging about ₦219,178 daily on airtime for lawmakers.

This expenditure is part of a broader luxurious budget allocation for legislators, including:

₦2.16 billion for 27 Fortuner Jeeps for lawmakers and the Assembly Clerk.

₦245 million for SUVs for the Speaker, Deputy Speaker, and Majority Leader.

₦85 million for vehicles for the Deputy Speaker.

₦765 million for renovation of the Assembly Complex and official lodges.


Context of Criticism:

Judiciary workers have struck over welfare concerns and lack of financial autonomy, shutting down court operations in Akure.

Reports show the state has spent heavily on vehicles and luxuries while underspending on essential services:

₦2.3 billion allocated for local security (Amotekun) with zero spent.

Only ₦309 million spent on rural water and sanitation projects.



The lavish spending on lawmakers’ perks contrasts sharply with the ongoing disputes and welfare neglect in the judiciary, fueling public criticism of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa’s administration.

“Ondo Government Plans N2.4 Billion Luxury Cars for Lawmakers Amid Judiciary Strike Crisis”

The Ondo State government, led by Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has proposed a N2.4 billion budget allocation for the purchase of luxury vehicles for lawmakers, raising public concerns amid an ongoing judiciary strike over poor welfare and financial autonomy.
According to the 2026 budget documents:
N2.16 billion is earmarked for 27 Fortuner Jeeps for members of the House of Assembly and the Clerk of the House.
An additional N245 million is designated for vehicles for the Speaker, Deputy Speaker, and Majority Leader, while N85 million is allocated for the Deputy Speaker alone.
The total proposed expenditure on lawmakers’ vehicles amounts to N2.4 billion.
Further, N765 million is set aside for renovations of the Assembly Complex and official lodges, including N485 million for the Assembly Complex and N280 million for residential quarters.
These lavish spending plans have drawn criticism as court activities remain paralyzed across Ondo State. The situation escalated when magistrates and Grade ‘A’ customary court presidents began an indefinite strike, later joined by the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN), citing unfulfilled welfare promises and continued undermining of judicial financial autonomy.
SaharaReporters’ review of the 2025 budget reveals a similar trend, with N2 billion previously allocated for luxury vehicles, including armoured cars for the governor and Toyota Prados for top officials, while critical sectors like rural water, sanitation, and local security outfits saw minimal to zero expenditure. For instance:
N2.3 billion was budgeted for Amotekun, the state’s local security outfit, but zero was spent.
Only N309 million was spent on the Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Agency.
Additionally, the House of Assembly planned N200 million for telephone charges, averaging N16 million per month or N533,333 per day, highlighting a pattern of prioritizing lawmakers’ perks over public welfare.
This budgetary allocation comes as the Ondo judiciary demands urgent intervention from the government to restore financial autonomy, improve welfare conditions, and resume court activities, stressing that the ongoing strike has left justice inaccessible to the citizens.

Ondo State Judiciary Paralyzed as Governor Aiyedatiwa Faces Criticism Over Poor Welfare, Financial Autonomy Issues; JUSUN Joins Strike Shutting Courts in Akure

The Ondo State judiciary has been brought to a standstill following a strike by magistrates, presidents of Grade ‘A’ customary courts, and legal research officers, citing poor welfare conditions, unfulfilled promises, and the refusal of financial autonomy under Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
The strike escalated when judiciary workers locked judges out of court facilities in Akure, shutting down the Ondo State Judiciary Headquarters. The Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) subsequently joined the industrial action, further crippling court operations across the state.
Sources revealed that many magistrates face severe hardships, including inadequate clothing, lack of official vehicles, and difficulty meeting basic daily needs. The strike highlights the pressing demand for improved welfare, autonomy, and government accountability to uphold the independence and dignity of Ondo State’s judiciary.

Ondo Government Under Fire as Judiciary Workers Lock Out Judges, Shut Courts in Statewide Strike Over Judicial Autonomy and Welfare

The Ondo State government is facing growing criticism after judiciary workers shut down court operations across the state, locking judges out of their offices and bringing judicial activities to a standstill in Akure and other locations. At the judiciary headquarters, court gates were padlocked, with judges’ official vehicles seen parked outside as proceedings were completely halted.

The disruption follows an indefinite strike declared by the Coalition of Magistrates, Presidents of Grade ‘A’ Customary Courts, and Legal Research Officers over unresolved issues of judicial autonomy, poor welfare, and working conditions under the administration of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa. In a notice dated January 2, 2026, the coalition directed all members to withdraw their services from January 5, warning them not to report to offices, sit in court, or issue or authorize any official documents for the duration of the strike.

The coalition stated that the action would continue until its “core demands for judicial autonomy and improved welfare are fully achieved,” emphasizing unity and discipline among members. Videos and photographs obtained from court premises across the state showed locked gates and a total shutdown of judicial activities.

The strike comes amid longstanding complaints by judiciary workers about dilapidated court infrastructure and poor working conditions, with reports that rainfall often forces the suspension of court sessions. As the impasse continues, legal processes in Ondo State remain paralysed, intensifying pressure on the state government to address the demands of judicial workers and restore access to justice.

BREAKING: Judicial Activities Shut Down Across Ondo State As Magistrates, Customary Court Presidents, Legal Officers Begin Indefinite Strike Over Autonomy, Welfare

Judicial activities across Ondo State have been completely paralysed following the commencement of an indefinite strike by magistrates, presidents of Grade ‘A’ customary courts, and legal research officers. The strike, which took effect on Monday, January 5, 2026, was declared by the Coalition of Magistrates, Presidents of Grade ‘A’ Customary Courts and Legal Research Officers in protest against unresolved issues bordering on judicial autonomy and poor welfare conditions.

In a notice dated January 2, 2026, the coalition directed all its members to withdraw from official duties indefinitely, warning them against reporting to offices, sitting in court, or issuing, signing, or authorising any judicial orders or documents throughout the duration of the strike. The group insisted that the industrial action would not be suspended until its core demands are fully met, stressing that judicial independence and improved welfare are non-negotiable.

Videos and photographs obtained on Monday showed court premises across the state locked and deserted, confirming a total shutdown of judicial operations. The strike follows long-standing complaints by judiciary workers over deteriorating court infrastructure, poor working conditions, and inadequate welfare, issues they say have worsened under the administration of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa. The action is jointly backed by key judicial associations in the state, signalling a united front that could further deepen the justice sector crisis if the dispute remains unresolved.

Ondo Judiciary Workers Decry Poor Court Infrastructure and Welfare, Warn of Justice System Collapse Under Governor Aiyedatiwa

Ondo State judiciary workers have raised alarms over the deteriorating state of courts and worsening welfare under Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa. They reported that many courts, including High Courts, Magistrates’ Courts, and Customary Courts, suffer from neglect, with roof leakages halting proceedings during rain. Staff face inadequate facilities, scarce office furniture, delayed vehicle replacements, and low allowances, hampering judicial efficiency.

The workers warned that the 2026 judiciary budget cuts could further cripple the justice system and stressed that financial autonomy without proper funding is ineffective. They highlighted that magistrates often rely on public transport, including motorcycles, to reach courts. The judiciary coalition has threatened to withdraw services from January 5, 2026, citing ongoing government inaction and insufficient support for judicial autonomy.

Ondo Judiciary Officers Announce Service Withdrawal Over Unimplemented Financial Autonomy

The Coalition of Magistrates, Presidents of Grade ‘A’ Customary Courts, and Legal Research Officers in Ondo State has announced a withdrawal of services starting 5 January 2026, citing the state government’s failure to genuinely implement judicial financial autonomy. Despite earlier assurances from the Ondo State government and intervention by Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, the coalition argues that persistent denial of welfare entitlements—such as official vehicles and allowances—has affected judicial efficiency, dignity, and effective justice delivery. The decision was communicated through letters submitted to the Chief Judge and President of the Customary Court of Appeal.

Ondo Governor’s Media Aide Accuses Infrastructure, Finance Commissioners of Sabotaging Administration

Lucky Aiyedatiwa’s Senior Special Assistant on Multimedia, Taiwo Ilesanmi Gbamila, accused Ondo State Commissioners for Infrastructure and Finance of undermining the governor’s media team. Gbamila alleged that Infrastructure Commissioner Abiola Olawoye deliberately obstructed media coverage of state projects, including denying site access without his approval. He also claimed Finance Commissioner Omowumi Isaac withheld funds meant for public awareness campaigns, leaving media aides to fund initiatives personally. Gbamila warned that persistent attacks on the media could have political repercussions, emphasizing the media’s role in safeguarding the governor’s achievements. He expressed readiness to face any fallout from speaking out, including potential dismissal or legal action, and called on the commissioners to respect the media’s work and integrity.

How Ex- Ondo Gov candidate Akingboye reportedly died of domestic violence from his wife.

One of the wives of former Social Democratic Party (SDP) governorship candidate in the November 16, 2024, Ondo State election, Bamidele Akingboye, has been accused of being responsible for his death.

Akingboye reportedly passed away last Wednesday at his Victoria Garden City (VGC) residence in Lagos at the age of 60.

Confirming his death in a statement, his Personal Assistant and Media Adviser, Oyeniyi Iwakun, described him as a man of integrity, a philanthropist, and a visionary leader. He said burial details would be announced later.

However, a source told SaharaReporters that Akingboye’s death was not natural but the result of domestic violence, alleging that his wife pushed him off a balcony. Images of his body circulating online show bruises and deep cuts on his head and neck.

The late politician, also the CEO of Benshore Maritime, Clog Oil Systems, and President of WeAfrica Group, had contested the 2024 Ondo governorship election against Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa of the APC, Agboola Ajayi of the PDP, and other candidates.

Police authorities have confirmed an ongoing discreet investigation, pledging to uncover the truth. Civil society groups and activists have also demanded a thorough probe while warning against any attempt to cover up the circumstances of his death.

Ondo Election: Appeal Court Upholds Aiyedatiwa’s Victory.

The Court of Appeal sitting in Akure, Ondo State, on Thursday affirmed the election of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa and his deputy, Dr. Olayide Adelami, as duly elected in the November 16, 2024 governorship poll.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared Aiyedatiwa of the All Progressives Congress (APC) winner, with 366,781 votes, defeating candidates from other parties.

Following his victory, multiple parties,including the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Social Democratic Party (SDP), Action Alliance (AA), Allied Peoples’ Movement (APM), and African Democratic Congress (ADC),challenged the outcome at the Ondo State Election Petition Tribunal.

They alleged electoral irregularities and non-compliance with the Electoral Act. However, the tribunal dismissed all petitions for lack of merit and upheld the election. Unwilling to accept the verdict, the petitioners approached the Court of Appeal.

But in a unanimous judgment on Thursday, Justices Nimpar Yargata, K.I. Amadi, and I.M. Sani dismissed the appeals one after the other, ruling that the appellants failed to provide credible evidence of electoral malpractice.

The court held that the appellants neither proved how alleged irregularities affected the results in specific polling units, wards, or local governments, nor presented credible witnesses during the tribunal proceedings.

Consequently, the appellate court upheld the tribunal’s earlier decision and affirmed Aiyedatiwa and Adelami as the legitimate Governor and Deputy Governor of Ondo State. The court also awarded N1.5 million in costs against the appellants.

VICTORY SEALED: Appeal Court Upholds Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa’s Election in Ondo State

The Federal Court of Appeal in Akure has affirmed the election of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, delivering another blow to the opposition. Elected under the APC platform, Aiyedatiwa’s victory had earlier been upheld by the Ondo State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal, which dismissed the PDP and Agboola Ajayi’s challenge to the election outcome.

With this latest ruling, Aiyedatiwa’s mandate stands strong and unshaken.

Ondo Govt to Probe Circumstances Surrounding Fmr. Gov. Akeredolu’s D+ath.

The Ondo State Government has announced plans to investigate the circumstances leading to the d+ath of former Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, who passed away on December 27, 2023, after a long b+ttle with prostate cancer.

Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Kayode Ajulo (SAN), revealed on Tuesday that a coroner’s inquest would be initiated following petitions from concerned citizens and professional groups, particularly from Akeredolu’s hometown, Owo.

Ajulo stated that the petitions, which raised questions and highlighted alleged inconsistencies around the late governor’s d+ath, had made it necessary to invoke the Coroner’s Law of Ondo State. “It is not out of place for citizens to demand its invocation when there are legitimate concerns,” he said. “The Attorney-General is duty-bound to act once such concerns are raised.”

Ajulo assured the public that the investigation would follow due process, free from bias or political interference. He noted that any necessary invitations or arrests would be made strictly according to legal procedure.

He also clarified that decisions such as inspecting Akeredolu’s remains or summoning individuals would be determined by the Coroner Judge. “This process must be handled with civility and a sense of responsibility to both the late governor’s legacy and the peace of the state,” Ajulo added.

He emphasized that under the administration of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, the law would be upheld without fear or favour: “No one is above the law, and no one is beneath its protection.”

The Deputy Speaker of the Ondo State House of Assembly, Abayomi Akinruntan has resigned his position, citing the need to align with the conventional arrangement of elective position in the state.


The resignation letter of the former deputy speaker – representing Ilaje Constituency 1, – who is the son of the Olugbo of Ugbo Kingdom, Oba Fredrick Akinruntan, was read at the floor of the Assembly by the Clerk, Benjamin Jayeiola.

Akinruntan, who was absent during the plenary, was elected as the Deputy Speaker of the Assembly in June 2023, a position he occupied until his resignation.


The resignation letter read: “I hereby tender my resignation from the office of the Deputy Speaker effective from today, 2nd June, 2025. Recall the House was inaugurated June, 2023 and I was unanimously elected as Deputy Speaker by members as stipulated in our standing order.

“My resignation is borne out of the need to align with the conventional arrangement in power sharing of elective positions in the state. I want to appreciate all members and staff for their contributions and support.”

Following Akinruntan’s resignation, the lawmaker representing Okitipupa Constituency 2, Ololade Gbegude was subsequently nominated by Oluwatoyin Japheth (Akoko North East Constituency) and seconded by Chris Ayebusiwa (Okitipupa Constituency 1) as the new Deputy Speaker.


Following the nomination of Gbegudu, which was not contested, he was subsequently sworn in as the Deputy Speaker with the pledge that he will serve in his new role with due diligence.

Similarly, the Majority Leader of the Assembly, Oluwole Ogunmolasuyi, also stepped down from his position, with the lawmaker representing Ose Constituency, Olatunji Oshati, announced as the new Majority Leader.

Also, Muritala Sulaiman, representing Akoko South East, was announced as the new Chief Whip, while Fabiyi Olatunji, Odigbo Constituency 1, becomes the Whip of the Assembly.


The Speaker, Olamide Oladiji, commended the former deputy speaker and the erstwhile majority leader for their maturity.

He said: “He (Akinruntan) has been a peaceful ally. He has support the house. I want to appreciate him for the maturity displayed for ensuring a peaceful transition.

“The same thing goes to the former majority leader. He has been a stabilizer in the House and also a good and dependable ally.”


It was gathered that the change of the positions of the principal officers became imperative in order to balance the unwritten elective political arrangements in the state.

Akinruntan and Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa hail from the same Ilaje Local Council Area of the state, while the erstwhile Majority Leader, Ogunmolasuyi is from
Owo Local Council, where the Deputy Governor, Olayide Adelami hails from.
