Iru Land Saga, Oba Gbolahan On Top Of Situations

Published

Iru Land,The True Situation of Things
Contrary to what is being spread around in the media space about division in the Oniru family, Oba Gbolahan is on top of situations.

Happenings in the kingdom after the ascension of Oba Gbolahan have become one of the first and immediate activities to weigh in on.

The Oniru family rules under the name of Oniru but with many other families that rightfully belong to the throne.

The children of the esteemed royal families of the entire Oniru are at loggerheads with one another over who is the rightful owner of the expansive Iru Land.

And this fued is now the bone of contention among the other family members who have stepped down for many years for Oba Abiodun Oniru’s lineage.

And also those in the know dispel that the viral video and news mentioned in the public domain of protest in the kingdom as the handiwork of those who have cornered the properties of the kingdom to themselves before now.

In the said video, some market women in the Iru Kingdom protested and kicked against the new king, Oba Gbolahan Lawal’s ascension to the throne of Iru Land.

Against all these insinuations either true or not, impeccable sources very close to the palace said that the new Oniru of Iru could not have had a hand in all these vituperations, which pointed to be a campaign of calumny in Oba Lawal’s direction.

Men close to the Oba maintained that he will never be intimidated by open annihilation from members masquerading to be from the royal Oniru family.

Infacts it is members of the royal Iru Kingdom who are seeking what belongs to them when the late Oniru was on the throne, and this is why they are now agitating for what is theirs, and they will go to any extent to collect what belong to them and what they have not been benefitting as sons and daughters of the royal Kingdom.

This is because they believed that the new Oniru, Oba Gbolahan Lawal, will make all things to come to normality in Iru Kingdom.

These indigenes protesting were against the family of the late Oniru and their major complaints pointed at the scion of the late Oba Abiodun Oniru, Aremo Adesegun, who owns company that is selling all the lands in the kingdom.

A source alleged, “In the last 45 years, from their grandfather to their late father, they arrogated all powers to themselves and this is what the sons and daughters of the land are agitating for and major reason why they are fighting so that the new king can return what belongs to the kingdom to the kingdom and not any private hand or one single family.”

The new king has already set up a committee to look into ongoing crisis between the children of the late Oniru of Iruland, Oba Idowu Abiodun and other families, with the platform ‘LET’S GROW IRU LAND TOGETHER’ an avenue to share ideas, suggestions and concerns of the residents and families of Iru kingdom because he believes together; they can make the Kingdom one of the most sustainable cities to live in.

The new Oniru, His Royal Majesty, Oba Abdulwasiu bolahan Lawal, as a father to all, noted that the doors to the palace is open to everyone, especially to the princes and princesses of the kingdom, and should they have any grievances on any ongoing project, they ought to approach the palace and seek clarification, rather than engage the committee members who were carrying out their duties.

As a former law enforcement officer and a well-read and traveled individual, Kabiyesi Abdulwasiu Gbolahan Lawal abhors violence and will never subscribe to the use of brute force or thugs in carrying out any of his plans for Iru kingdom, rather engagement and dialogues has been the route of choice since his ascension.

The Oniru as the custodian of the heritage, values, and assets of the kingdom knows that proper documentation of everything being held in trust by the throne will go a long way in creating accountability and equity within the kingdom, for generations unborn.

As a father to all, Kabiyesi Gbolahan Lawal has reiterated that peaceful coexistence between all and sundry within the kingdom is his number one priority, as well as redeveloping and rebranding the kingdom for the benefit of the indigenes, residents and businesses within the kingdom.

#FreeVDM Trends as EFCC Secures Court Order to Remand VeryDarkMan Over Alleged Cybercrime

#FreeVDM Trends as EFCC Secures Court Order to Remand VeryDarkMan Over Alleged Cybercrime

#FreeVDM Trends as EFCC Secures Court Order to Remand VeryDarkMan Over Alleged Cybercrime

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has obtained a court order to remand controversial social media activist Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), pending the conclusion of an investigation into alleged cybercrime offences.

VDM was dramatically arrested last Friday outside a bank in the Wuse area of Abuja by a combined team of EFCC operatives, Department of State Services (DSS) officers, and the Nigeria Police Force. Eyewitnesses say the activist was apprehended moments after leaving the bank, sparking immediate online outrage.

The arrest has ignited a social media firestorm, with the hashtag #FreeVDM dominating trends across platforms throughout the weekend. Many critics argue that the arrest is yet another attempt by authorities to intimidate dissenting voices online.

“The remand order was granted to allow us to complete our investigation and finalize the charges,” a senior EFCC official told reporters, noting that charges would be filed under the Cybercrimes Act once investigations are complete.

Sources familiar with the case say the EFCC is building a case focused on alleged violations involving online financial misconduct, which fall under the commission’s purview.

As of Monday morning, VDM remains in EFCC custody, with his legal team led by rights activist Deji Adeyanju confirming efforts to gain access to him and prepare a legal response.

“We are seeking to visit our client and are reviewing the legal implications of his arrest,” Adeyanju said in a statement.

Despite the mounting public interest and widespread speculation, the EFCC has yet to release an official statement detailing the arrest or outlining the specific charges VDM may face.

The arrest of VeryDarkMan adds to growing concerns over press freedom and digital expression in Nigeria, where several social media commentators have recently faced legal action for controversial posts.

David Abioye Begins New Chapter with Launch of Living Word Conquerors Global Assembly

David Abioye Launches New Church, Living Word Conquerors Global Assembly, Amid Jubilant Crowd

Former Vice President and retired pastor of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Abioye, has officially inaugurated his new ministry, Living Word Conquerors Global Assembly, marking a new chapter in his over four-decade-long spiritual journey.

The launch took place today, Sunday, May 4, 2025, during the ministry’s first Sunday service, which saw a massive turnout of enthusiastic worshippers. The atmosphere was charged with excitement as congregants gathered to witness what Abioye described as the “manifestation of God’s eternal purpose.”

In a passionate address during the inaugural service, Abioye emphasized that the establishment of the new church was not the result of public opinion or personal ambition, but a divine assignment birthed from deep spiritual conviction.

“May I make it very clear that the inauguration of this assembly is not in response to demands of people to start a church,” Abioye declared. “But by the emergence of God’s eternal purpose, ordained from the foundation of the word, which is just coming to light at His own time.”

The renowned cleric explained that the Living Word Conquerors Global Assembly is founded on divine direction and is dedicated to the spiritual development, edification, and victory of believers worldwide.

Clarifying his role in the new ministry, Abioye stated that he does not view himself as someone attempting to fulfill the entire Great Commission alone, but rather as a messenger raised for a specific divine assignment within God’s broader agenda.

“In the name of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, for the spiritual development, edification, and triumph of the saints globally… this assembly is hereby inaugurated,” he declared, drawing a resounding “Amen” from the congregation.

The launch follows Abioye’s retirement from Living Faith Church in October 2024, alongside Pastor Thomas Aremu, after the church implemented a policy setting a mandatory retirement age for senior leaders. Abioye bowed out of active service at the age of 63, concluding a distinguished ministry career under the leadership of Bishop David Oyedepo.

As the curtain lifts on this new ministry, many see it not as a departure from Abioye’s legacy, but as a continuation of his divine calling—this time under a new banner with a global vision.
