- In Ogbomoso, Oyo state, the chief Imam Sheikh Teliat Yunus Ayilara has been having a fierce battle with the traditional monarch, Soun of Ogbomoso Oba Afolabi Ghandi Olaoye
- However, the council of Imams in the community has said Oba Olaoye did not have an issue with the Imam and that the family’s claiming membership of Sheikh Teliat in the Ayilara family is questionable
- This is as the Oyo State High Court in Ogbomoso restrained the Oba and his council from removing the Imam pending the hearing of the case before it
The real issue between the Soun of Ogbomoso, Oba Afolabi Ghandi Olaoye, the kingmakers of town and the Chief Imam of Ogbomoso, Sheikh Teliat Yunus Ayilara, has been said to be a family quest.
In a report by Alaroye, a Yorùbá news medium, the council of Imams in the town dissociated the Soun from the battle of the embattled Imam Ayilara, saying that his family alleged that his lineage is questionable.
