The Kogi State Government has given the Ohinoyi of Ebiraland, Dr. Ado Ibrahim, 48 hours to re-submit his response to a recent query given to him with the appropriate title of the stool as recognised by the Kogi State Chieftaincy Law 2006 and his letter of appointment.
The monarch was issued a query for his alleged untoward conduct during the recent visit of President Muhammadu Buhari to the state.
He had, in his response letter dated January 6, 2023, addressed himself as “Atta Ebira” instead of Ohinoyi of Ebiraland.
Declaring that the Atta Ebira title is unknown to the law of the state, the State Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Salami Deedat, noted that any correspondence with the Atta title was unacceptable for official purpose.
The monarch had allegedly disrespected the offices of President Muhammadu Buhari and Governor Yahaya Bello when the President visited the State on December 29, to commission landmark projects executed by the current administration in the state.
