This is as the Ogun State House of Assembly threatened to order his arrest should he fail to appear before it on August 17, 2021.

The Ogun Assembly Committee on Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, said on Tuesday that Hassan had earlier failed to honour an invitation sent to him by the lawmakers.

The committee led by Hon. Bolanle Ajayi summoned Adeniyi to appear before it next Tuesday, in order to respond to a petition written against him by a group known as the Imobi Descendants’ Union.

Meanwhile, the committee has ordered Hassan to stop parading himself as a traditional ruler in Imobi.

He was also asked to appear before the House Committee with all the 36 Baales (local chiefs) under the community.
