The Ataoja of Osogboland, Oba Jimoh Olanipekun, has warned against any unauthorised acquisition and encroachment of land without due process.
He also noted that the recent judgement of an Osun High Court in Ile-Ife over a matter of land acquisition between the Nigerian Army and citizens of the state was commendable. The Nigerian Army acquired the hectares of land through an official Gazette in 1973 without the support of the community.
