Olubadan of Ibadanland Clarifies: I Have No Power to Impeach Governor Makinde

Olubadan of Ibadanland Clarifies: I Have No Power to Impeach Governor Makinde — 1 of 2
1 / 2

The Olubadan of Ibadanland has dismissed claims that he planned to impeach Governor Seyi Makinde. In a statement released by his media aide, the monarch called the report baseless and deceptive. He explained that traditional rulers have no constitutional authority to remove elected officials, noting that impeachment is solely the remit of legislative bodies. He added that even at the local government level, chiefs cannot unseat local government chairpersons. The palace urged the public to ignore the rumours, describing the story as a deliberate attempt to mislead and stir tension.

How did this impeachment rumor even start, and why do you think people believed the Olubadan could remove a governor?

It's surprising how quickly false stories spread when people don't fact-check traditional roles against constitutional powers.

This clarification sounds neat, but I doubt everyone will ignore palace politics just because there's no legal backing.

For clearer public understanding, relevant media outlets should publish a concise guide on traditional rulers' roles versus constitutional powers.
