A high court sitting in Lokoja, Kogi state on Monday sacked the Ohinoyi of Ebiraland, His Majesty Alhaji Ahmed Muhammed Tajani Anaje from office.
Hon Justice Salisu Umar, the Presiding judge of High Court 6 Lokoja in his ruling made an order directing the defender to stop presenting himself as the paramount traditional ruler of Ebiraland.
Though the court is yet to make available details of the judgement, it was gathered that the case pertain to case number HCO/05C/2024, filed by Dr. Barnabas Adeku Ojiah and two others against the Governor of Kogi State.
Recall that Anaje was appointed as Ohinoyi of Ebira Land by the former governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, in January, 2024, at the twilight of his administration.
All efforts to speak with the embattled Ohinoyi of Ebiraland, Alhaji Ahmed Muhammed Tajani Anaje, proved abortive as his cell phones were switched off.
