Oba Of Lagos’ Staff Of Office Mysteriously Returns
The staff of the office of Oba Rilwan Akiolu, the Oba of Lagos, has been mysteriously returned after it was taken away by hoodlums.
The staff of office of the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, which was carted away by some hoodlums during the #EndSARS protest in Lagos, has reportedly been returned.
The staff disappeared after the hoodlums broke into and looted the office during the protests against SARS in Lagos.
They carted away food supplies, household items, gadgets, and even cooled off in the swimming pool.
The ‘opa ase’ which is the symbol of authority of a traditional ruler, was spotted today leaning undisturbed in a room scattered with papers, when some group of people went to inspect the place.
A video of it was uploaded online and has since been the centre of many different theories.
The reappearance of the staff, which is the symbol of authority of the traditional leader, is yet to be explained.
However, the whereabouts of Oba Akiolu, a former police officer remains unknown.
