The Ogun State governor, Dapo Abiodun, on Thursday, warned traditional chiefs who are yet to register with the state government to desist from parading themselves as legitimate or face the consequences.
Governor Abiodun, who made this known during the 5th Oko Ilu Day Celebration of the Ogun State Council of Traditional Chiefs, held in Abeokuta, noted that his administration would continue to see those who are yet to register as illegitimate chiefs.
Abiodun also disclosed that his administration would discuss with the Council of Traditional Rulers in the state the need to have a payment structure for chiefs in the state.
He added that his administration would also look at a way of funding the traditional council and ensure that a particular percentage of the funding is appropriated towards traditional chiefs in the state.
