We Haven’t Withdrawn Suit Challenging Oba Wasiu – Abisogun Family

The Omowunmi-Abisogun Family of Iru-kingdom, Victoria Island, Lagos, has debunked the claim that the family has resolved to withdraw a suit challenging the emergence and installation of Oba Wasiu Gbolahan Lawal.

The family led by Alhaji Surajudeen Durosinmi in a statement urged the public to disregard the rumour being spread in the media.

The family stated that there is no division among the authentic members of the Omowunmi Abisogun family stressing that the territorial integrity of Iru Kingdom will forever be protected in the interest of all genuine members that remain uncompromising, in the interest of future generations.

The family also reaffirmed that Alhaji Surajudeen Durosinmi Oniru, the family head of Omowunmi-Abisogun Royal family.

The Family advised those that are behind the purported withdrawal of the suit to retrace their steps and join them in reclaiming their stool. stressing that those who hurriedly organised a kangaroo committee claiming to represent the Omowunmi Abisogun family are ‘hungry sellouts’ and are far from the authentic knowledge and historical background of the Oniru-kingdom’.

The statement was jointly signed by Alhaji Surajudeen Durosinmi Oniru (family head) Wosilatu Fatosha, Olabunmi O, Amoshe Shola, Mattew Akinwunmi Eletu. among others.

The statement reads in part; “The family head of Omowunmi Abisogun family of Iru-kingdom wish to appeal to the unstable members of the family who are willing to join those that are bribed to mortgage their future by dropping the pursuit to rescue the family inheritance from present usurpers, to retrace their steps and join the part of justice to remove Mr. Wasiu Gbolahan Law from the throne illegally occupied.

“The illegal occupation of Wasiu Gbolahan Lawal as Oniru of Iruland remain a subject of litigation at a Lagos High Court and nothing like reconciliation by authentic family members, except those with no dignity nor honor.

“We wish to state clearly that there is no division among the authentic members of the Omowunmi Abisogun family and the territorial integrity of Iru Kingdom will be forever protected in the interest of all genuine members that will forever remain uncompromising, including for future generations.

“Our cultural background plays a non quantifiable and critical of our entire humanity. Our truthfulness to our cultural background and uncompromising stand to protect the heritage defines the genuineness of our humanity which plays a strong role in what awaits us in the future.

“We are indeed personally saddened by the fact that our cultural heritage is under threat by some members of Lagos political cabals who assisted in imposing Gbolahan Lawal on us. This is nothing but an intergenerational injustice and we have a duty to protect our cultural heritage, not for our immediate family alone, but the future and entire history of Oniru Kingdom.

“Reconciliation with a false occupant of the throne therefore remain impossible and a non negotiable idea. Those discussing reconciliation are towing the part of compromise and destruction of their cultural heritage. The implication of this represents not just the destruction of their present and future values, but as well of their unborn generation.

“We are however saddened by this desperate destruction of a cultural heritage by some compromising family members in pursuit of immediate financial priorities.

“As head of the family of Omowunmi Abisogun of Iru-Kingdom, I wish to appeal to genuine members of the family who are presently negotiating with Wasiu Gbolahan Lawal to retrace their steps and unit with us in the struggle to rescue our palace from the present impostor. They should be made to understand the weight of their actions at this critical and delicate time and as well know that they are answerable to a higher moral and spiritual code beyond the material expectations.

“It is painful that some of the children of Alhaja Hafusatu Kabiawu who finally became victim to the bribe as offer by Wasiu Gbolahan Lawal, and finally drag their aged mother to the compromise.

“It is also important to state that there was never any time that the family chose Alh. Biliaminu as head of the family. The family head remains Alh. Surajudeen Durosinmi Oniru.

“The fraudsters who hurriedly organised some kangaroo committee to claim to be representing the Omowunmi Abisogun family should note that those hungry sellout are far from the authentic knowledge and historical background of the Oniru-kingdom. All these facts and more would be revealed at the appropriate time.

“We maintain that it remains an abomination to give any support to the present occupant of the throne. Considering the spiritual implications, it is clear that nothing will come from any attempt to reconciliation except wrath of God”.
