The appointment of King Ghandi Olaoye as the new Soun of Ogbomoso has been upturned by the Oyo State High Court sitting in Ogbomoso Judicial Division.
In September 2023, the Oyo State Government had announced Ghandi Olaoye as Soun of Ogbomoso and crowned him King.
Earlier, another contender for the throne, Prince Muhammed Kabir Olaoye, sued Ghandi, Governor Seyi Makinde and Attorney-General of Oyo State, barring them from crowning any one as King pending the final determination of the suit.
The court gave an order restraining Pastor Afolabi Ghandi Oladunni Olaoye from parading, representing or presenting himself as the candidate for any ceremony, also restrained the Oyo Govt from presenting any instruments of office to the former RCCG Pastor.
