Oba Aromaye Appeals High Court Verdict, Reaffirms His Claim as Iro Kingdom’s True Oniro

A Ogun State monarch has taken his fight to the Court of Appeal after a High Court nullified his 13-year reign and ordered him off the Iro throne. Oba Najeem Aromaye insists he remains the legitimate Oniro of Iro Kingdom. He labelled the lower court ruling “sponsored” and vowed to overturn it through legal channels. Appealing for calm, the monarch urged residents to avoid violence and continue daily life while the appeal proceeds. He warned against spreading rumours and said legal action will follow against those who defame him. Observers believe the appeal’s outcome could reshape traditional leadership structures in Iro Kingdom and set a precedent for similar chieftaincy disputes.
