The Ogun State High Court sitting in Ijebu-Ode has declined to grant an interim injunction sought by an aspirant to the Awujale of Ijebuland stool, Otunba Wasiu Olasunkanmi Ayinde Adesanya Marshall popularly known as K1 D’Ultimate.

The ruling was delivered on Monday by the presiding judge of High Court 3, Ijebu-Ode Judicial Division, Hon. Justice A. A. Omoniyi, who held that the application for interim injunction lacked merit.

Wasiu had approached the court seeking an order restraining the Ogun State Government and other respondents from taking further steps in the selection process of the next Awujale of Ijebuland pending the determination of his substantive suit.

Despite refusing the interim relief, Justice Omoniyi ordered an accelerated hearing of the matter and fixed January 14, 2026, for the commencement of proceedings.

The applicant is challenging the Awujale succession process, alleging breaches of the Ogun State Chieftaincy Law and violations of his constitutional right to fair hearing.
