Kingmakers Petition To Remove Oluwo For Alleged Misconduct

Iwo kingmakers have petitioned Osun State Governor, Gboyega Oyetola to remove their monarch, Abdulrasheed Adewale, the Oluwo of Iwoland over his alleged criminal past and allegedly engaging in acts unbecoming of a traditional ruler.

According to the petition, the alleged concealed criminal past disqualifies him from the crown.

The petition was addressed to Governor Oyetola and signed by the kingmakers of Iwo council, dated September 9, 2020.

According to the concerned kingmakers, Oluwo Akanbi concealed his conviction for securities fraud by a United States of America District court โ€“ the U. S District of Massachusetts.

They added that the court convicted him for 15 months imprisonment, and barred him from entering the United States for life. He was allegedly deported to Nigeria after serving the jail terms.

The kingmakers also alleged that Abdulrasheed migrated to Canada in the year 2000 and obtained Canadian citizenship where he was again convicted between 2006 and 2007 for another crime.

They added that โ€œhowever, on the 21st March 2011 at Peace Bridge Port Entry Buffalo New York, United States, the present Oluwo attempted to enter the United States despite being barred for life from entry as a result of a 1998 conviction. He was promptly arrested by Customs and Border Protection Officer. A background check was conducted on him which revealed more thingsโ€

โ€œThe Custom and Border Protection Officer (CBPO) named Fudelia conducted a CBP Database queries on Oluwo and discovered that Prince Akanbi had a criminal conviction in Canada.

โ€œThe CBPO conducted a biometric fingerprint on Oluwoโ€™s fingerprints. The scans revealed a positive match under FBI number and other file numbers. The name associated with those records was Segun Adewale Adeonigbagbe.’โ€
