By The King Kosoko Royal Family and Oloja of Lagos Chieftaincy Family have distanced themselves from the unrest that rocked the streets of Lagos Island on January 19.
This was contained in a joint statement signed by the Oloja of Lagos (Elect), Prince Abiola Olojo-Kosoko and Head of King Kosoko Royal Family, Alh Mutiat Ashabi Alli-Balogun.
Reacting to the riots which was erroneously addressed as “Idumota Vs Kosoko”, the statement clarified that the King Kosoko Royal Family is not an organisation but a reputable Royal/Chieftaincy family in Lagos State and three other west Africa countries.
“And as such does not have anything to do with the 19th of January 2022 Lagos Island unrest orchestrated by some street gangs for selfish reasons, which we believe the Nigerian Police force are still investigating.
“We hereby wish to disassociate ourselves from the unrest and we shall appreciate that the general public desist from the claim that Kosoko is in anyway part of the unrest,” the families stated.
