President Tinob has reportedly stood out from Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
Nigeria News Nalin Police Attorney General IGP Kayode Egbetokun indefinitely expanded security details for traditional Lagos rulers Omogbolahan Oniru and Saheed Elegushi, the report said.
Sources close to this matter reveal to the People’s Gazette the President Ahmed Tinubu In January, the police authorized the police to continue to retain the security provided by the government for the monarchs in support of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the controversial impeachment of impashiru obasa in January, which was the Lagos Parliament Speaker Mudashiru Obasa.
Sources said the president was very excited about Governor Sanwo-olu’s mismanagement of Lagos politics, especially after the governor failed to curb rebellious legislators before the Obasa impeachment on January 13.
According to sources, Tinubu is determined not only to punish the governors, but also those who are accomplices.
The police stations that once stood outside the palaces of Oniru and Elegushi were obviously not present on the weekend due to the expansion of security pauses.
“Kabiyesi Oniru has hired private security personnel and shared brand new suits with them so they can appear as SSS agents“A source close to the Palace of Onilu told the Gazette.”He didn’t know when his government security would be restored – President Tinub was still very angry. ”
Sources said that while constitutional restrictions prevented President Tinob from easily punishing Governor Sanvo-olu, the sources said the president has raised responsible people to help the governor’s controversial action.
“President has authorized police IG to continue suspending security personnel to Oniru and Elegushia source familiar with the matter told the Gazette. ”They brought it to themselves because they allowed themselves to be manipulated by Governor Sanwo-Olu. ”
President Tinob’s frustration stems from the belief that Oniru and Elegushi should question the validity of Sanwo-Olu’s claim that he received the president’s approval to remove Obasa, a key figure in Lagos politics.
“President says Yuangao Rush and Oniru should contact his office to verify that he supports impeachment,” an assistant revealed.They should do due diligence. ”
The new spokesperson was sworn in after Obasa’s impeachment. Obasa was restored on March 3 after the president’s instructions, despite initial rejection by Lagos MPs.
Although Gov. Sanwo-Olu denied any involvement in impeachment, the allegations show that he influenced lawmakers to ensure Obasa was removed. Tinubu reportedly refused the governor and even refused to meet with a delegation of parliamentarians who went to Abuja to seek intervention.
President Tinubu’s distrust of Sanwo-Olu has exacerbated the loss of Lagos in the governor’s failure to stop Peter Obi’s 2023 presidential election. “Governor Sanwo-Olu knew how important Age is to Asiwaju, and then lied to the MPs and bribed them to remove them, as the president liked to be the leader of the parliament”, a source of information from the People’s Gazette.
A spokesman for Oniru denied any involvement in political unrest, stressing that the only connection between the monarch and the situation was through family ties to Meranda.
“This is the traditional ruler, not the politicianspokesman Hakeem Akintoye said.He has been committed to improving the welfare of the people and preserving the cultural heritage of the Kingdom of Europe and the Republic. ”
Meanwhile, Elegushi denied his security issues but has been working to regain protections provided by the government.
A presidential spokesman claimed he was not aware of the president’s anger or retaliation against traditional rulers. Similarly, a spokesperson for Governor Sanwo-Olu did not respond to a request for comment, and the Force Headquarters refused to provide any information.
