0

The Isolo Kingmakers have responded to circulating rumours regarding the emergence of Prince Jimmy Adetokunbo Goloba as the new Osolo of Isolo.

The kingmakers have firmly stated, “Our attention has been drawn to the news in circulation regarding the purported emergence of one Prince Jimmy Adetokunbo Goloba, as the new osolo of Isolo.”

They emphasized that these claims are baseless, asserting, “We will like to inform the general public that there is no iota of truth in the said publication and that same should be taken with a grain/pinch of salt in its entirety.”

To clarify the situation, the kingmakers announced that no candidate has been proposed to the Lagos State Government for installation as the new Osolo.

“To set the record straight, the kingmakers have not proposed any candidate to the Lagos State Government to be installed as the new Osolo of Isolo, contrary to the publication circulating around.”

According to their traditional customs and procedures, Prince Abiodun Shekoni has emerged as the most suitable candidate following thorough consultation.

“As at today, based on the custom and traditional procedures to be followed in the appointment of the new Osolo of Isolo, Prince Abiodun Shekoni emerged as the most suitable candidate after due consultation and traditional practices.”

The kingmakers also addressed the motives behind the false publication, suggesting that it stems from a rival candidate’s attempt to garner public sympathy.

“While we understand the rationale behind the false publication at the instance of one of the candidates who has foreseen defeat and so as to attract public sympathy which will not revive his defeat, we urge the general public to be at peace and allow the kingmakers to conclude their task in a lawful manner, and for the best interest of the entire Isolo kingdom.”
