Monarch Faces Defamation Charge Over Drug-Related Allegations Involving His Son

On October 9, it was reported that His Royal Highness, Rotimi Dada (Ajumobi), publicly disowned Jeremiah Dada, claiming that the young man is his estranged son. According to HRH Dada, he divorced Jeremiah’s mother about fifteen years ago and has since had no relationship or contact with the boy.
Jeremiah Dada was earlier remanded in prison custody for allegedly supplying hard drugs to bandits. As the controversy surrounding the case deepens, HRH Rotimi Dada Ajumobi is scheduled to appear in court today, November 4, 2025, over charges of defamation and threats against a member of the Egbe Security Committee, who had raised concerns about the matter.
In a recorded conversation that has surfaced, HRH Ajumobi was heard admitting that his son is involved in the sale of drugs. Quoting him verbatim, he said:
“You that smoke Indian hemp are arresting someone that is selling Indian hemp...”
The matter is still unfolding, and more details will be provided as events develop.
Details coming soon.

PERMIT ME, JUST THIS ONCE, TO TALK ABOUT YAGBA POLITICS. ✍️ Temidayo John Tunde

Image
Yagba politics is a different ball game entirely. To make real impact in this zone  in this part of Kogi West  no be moi moi. It takes more than vision. It takes will. And it takes a stomach for what you’ll meet. We often say Yagba is blessed  and yes, it is. It’s a pot of wealth, wisdom, culture, and potential. But we have a few big problems: every community loves itself deeply but struggles to love the next. We’re divided not just by towns, but by ego, suspicion, and self-interest. We are brilliant, but we’ve not learned (coalition) to be one. Politics here isn’t just a game — it's a job for many. I no fit lie give you, about 70% of home-based people  those you'll refer to as the grassroots  see it as a livelihood. People with no political appointment, no office, still shining and whining. Retired men, party elders, and those whose own families may not even vote become foot soldiers and power brokers. You’ll hear things like: “Na me get Isanlu or E...

IFON AND YEYELAMO

Image
If you’re from Egbe or have roots in Yagbaland, chances are you’ve heard whispers—maybe even full-blown stories—about a mysterious spring along Patigi Road called Amo. But what if I told you that water isn't just water? That there's a spirit beneath the surface? A woman. A goddess. A legend. As the convener of Egbe Mekun Carnival, part of my mission is to document, preserve, and celebrate the unique stories and sacred traditions of our people. And trust me—IFON is one of the most intriguing. --- 💧 The Woman Who Sank Into the Ground Long ago, in the heart of our community, there lived a woman called Yeye Lamo. She was kind, peaceful, and devoted to her husband. But she had no children—and that changed everything. After waiting over 20 years for a child, her husband gave up and married another woman, who quickly bore him six children. The home once peaceful became hostile. Yeye Lamo was mocked, accused, and emotionally abandoned. One day, after a particularly cruel e...

THE MAESTRO OF THE SAVANNAH Professor Jimo Akolo, MFR (1935–2023)Three Years of Remembrance — The Brush Still Speaks

Image
Three years ago, silence visited the earthly home of a man whose life had long ceased to belong merely to himself. Yet history refused to mourn him in silence. For ordinary men pass away and memory slowly retreats. But there are rare souls whose departure enlarges their presence. Professor Jimo Bola Akolo, MFR, belonged to that sacred league of men. Today, we do not merely remember his passing. We celebrate the triumph of a life that transformed talent into legacy, culture into civilization, and creativity into immortality. Professor Jimo Akolo was not merely an artist. He was a movement clothed in humility. A silent titan who redrew the boundaries of African modernism and carried the dignity of his homeland into the galleries of the world. Long before his name echoed through prestigious art institutions and international exhibitions, he was first a son of Egbe. The earth of Yagba raised him. The spirit of Okunland shaped him. And Kogi State proudly presented him...
