The family members of Olugbesan, Oke-Agbeni, Ibadan have petitioned to Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Moshood Olalekan Balogun, accusing former Deputy Governor of Oyo State, Hazeem Gbolarunmi and one Prince Adeyemi of Mich Royal Company of selling their ancestral family illegally.
The family in a letter titled: A SAVE OUR SOUL PLEA TO OLUBADAN OF IBADANLAND, OBA MOSHOOD OLALEKAN BALOGUN ON THE ILLEGAL SALES OF OLUGBESAN FAMILY LAND BY HAZEEM GBOLARUNMI USING PRINCE ADEYEMI OF MICH ROYAL COMPANY, and signed by
Alh. Lukman Durosomo Olugbesan, Tunbosun Durosomo Olugbesan, Chief Taofeek Durosomo Olugbesan, Akibu Durosomo Olugbesan and Monsurat Durosomo Olugbesan, called on Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Moshood Olalekan Balogun to call on the duo of Hazeem Gbolarunmi and Prince Adeyemi of Mich Royal Company to stop selling their land illegally.
“Sir, we are writing this save our soul letter to you with a view to urgently intervene on a matter involving the duo of Hazeem Gbolarunmi and Prince Adeyemi of Mich Royal Company who have been illegally selling our family land at Olugbesan village, Ido Local Government area.”
It added: “Sir, we have just discovered that Hazeem Gbolarunmi has been personally selling our family land and also using one Prince Adeyemi of Mich Royal Company to sell our family’s land and which proceeds he keeps to himself.”
“Your Imperial Majesty sir, this same Hazeem Gbolarunmi has also prevented us the legitimate children of Olugbesan family from having access to the land as he has stationed thugs on the land.”
“Sir, this Hazeem Gbolarunmi who we intend to prove is not of the Olugbesan family lineage has also conspired with visitors who our forefathers accommodated in our family compound to deprive us of our collective heritage.”
“Sir, we are writing to you not only because you’re our king but because we know you as a man of integrity with zero tolerance to injustice.”
Efforts to reach both Chief Hazeem Gbolarunmi and Prince Adeyemi of Mich Royal Company proved abortive as at the time of filling this reports.
