The Sabiganna of Iganna Kingdom in Oyo State, Oba Saliu Oyemonla Azeez Agunloye, has sacked one of the chiefs in the kingdom, Mallam Memudu, over alleged insubordination, extortion and actions capable of destabilising the peace within Iwajowa local government area of the state.

The monarch had lodged a complaint with the Iganna police area command, against Mallam Memudu, who identified himself as Seriki Samori.

In a letter addressed to the police area command, Oba Agunloye detailed that Mallam Memudu, initially nominated by the monarch and subsequently approved by the late Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi III, had deviated from his designated role.

According to the monarch, Mallam Memudu was originally appointed to manage Fulani herder-farmer conflicts and provide crucial intelligence to security agencies,

He alleges that Mallam Memudu was accused of establishing a “Parallel government” and engaging in illicit activities.

“He has been abusing his office by setting up a parallel government for himself, extorting money from Fulani constituents through threats and insubordination to my office as the prescribed authority and the paramount traditional ruler of Iganna Kingdom,” Oba Agunloye stated.

The Sabiganna further alleged that Mallam Memudu had failed to reorientate the Fulani youths towards lawful conduct, instead exploiting their alleged criminal activities for personal gain.

“His primordial interest had been extortion instead of the crises’ management he swore to uphold,” the monarch added.

Oba Agunloye claimed that repeated warnings had been ignored, and Mallam Memudu’s actions were now undermining the traditional authority and jeopardising the security of the region.

The monarch cited a specific incident involving arson in Onikoro area, where Mallam Memudu allegedly obstructed investigations and manipulated suspected Fulani individuals.

“This is a dangerous security trend in my kingdom that should not be treated with kid gloves in the interest of peace and stability of the local government,” Oba Agunloye said

The monarch requested the Iganna area command to summon Mallam Memudu and issue a stern warning, demanding he ceases parading himself as Seriki Samori within the local government.
