 Ondo traditional rulers involved in land grabbing will go to jail – AG


The Ondo State Commissioner for Justice and Attorney-General, Dr Kayode Ajulo, has warned that any traditional rulers found culpable in land grabbing would be sent to jail.

Ajulo, who was reacting to the Anti-Land Grabbing Bill before the state House of the Assembly, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Akure that some traditional rulers were behind cases of land grabbing.

“Government will not shy away from stepping on toes. I must confess, I like to speak my mind, that some of our traditional rulers have caused a lot of problems when it comes to the issue of land grabbing.

“They may be in their palaces, but send people out to cause mayhem. Many a time, we see how they use cutlasses to cut each other’s heads.

“Anytime some Kabiyesi are being picked, with due respect, and sent to jail on this issue, nobody should complain.

“We know what is good and we know what is bad.

“The law is proposed to ensure legislative promulgation in addressing unlawful entry of landed property and violent conduct related to landed property,” he stated.

The commissioner said that Gov. Lucky Aiyedatiwa also recently signed an Executive Order to address the issue of land-grabbing

According to him, there is a need to tackle the menace appropriately.

“Last week, the governor signed Executive Order 2024 to tackle the menace in Ondo State.

“Don’t be surprised, and I’m not a prophet of doom, many may be affected.
