The Olorile of Orile-Ifo, Oba Abdulsemiu Ogunjobi, who assaulted one elderly man in Ogun State, as seen in a viral video, was charged to court on three-count charge of conspiracy, assault and conduct likely to cause harm.

He was granted bail while the case was adjourned to March 6, 2025.

MyNigeria reported that the monarch has been placed on six months suspension by the Ogun State Government for his uncivil conduct not befitting the status of an Oba.

The decision was reached after the monarch and his victim were invited by the Commissioner, Ministry of Local Govt and Chieftaincy Affairs for interrogation.

In a statement, the state said, "This became imperative as a result of the reckless utterances and public misconduct of the Kabiyesi as it was evident in the social media and being bandied in the larger public space.

"After the investigation conducted on the matter, the Kabiyesi has been suspended and stripped of the paraphernalia of the stool of Olorile-Ifo pending the determination of his culpability or otherwise on the allegation.

"The foregoing decision was reached by the Ministry in conjunction with the Egba Traditional Council in accordance with Section 52(1) of the Obas and Chiefs' Law of Ogun State 2021."
