— Sets up data team to monitor projects in LGAs By Dayo Johnson, Akure AKURE — The Ondo State Government has defended the approval of Prince Adewale Fatunsi Richard as the new Olusupare of Supare-Akoko in Akoko South West Local Government Area, insisting that it did not violate any subsisting court order.
The commissioner added that the community had been in crisis due to a lack of leadership and that the government’s legal team advised that nothing in law stopped the installation.
On allegations that the state was creating new kingdoms, Takuro said the government only complied with a High Court judgment renaming Irun-Akoko to Oke-Oro.
