A traditional ruler has been suspended in Oyo State for his alleged link with illegal miners.
In a statement on Friday, the Oyo State Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Dotun Oyelade, said the traditional ruler of Ido town in Ido Local Government Area of the state, Oba Gbolagade Babalola (Gbadewolu I), was suspended by Governor Seyi Makinde.
He also said the state government took the tough measure of suspending the monarch to send signals to those aiding and abetting criminals within their territory that they were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
