Efon Development League, the umbrella organisation for Efon-Alaaye in Ekiti State, has faulted the autonomy granted to Ahun community by the government.
It said it was granted in error, adding that it was subjudiced because of the subsisting litigation in the matter in court.
The group’s President-General, Bode Fagbemiro, and Secretary, Afolabi Ige, said in a statement that the autonomy was shocking.

“We state without equivocation that we stand with Kabiyesi, the Alaaye of Efon-Alaaye, Oba Emmanuel Adesanya Aladejare that Efon Alaaye is one indivisible and indissoluble entity with recorded history dated back to 11th century A.D. This position is the position of the League and all Efon Alaaye people and which we are prepared to defend.
“We call on the Ekiti State Government to take cognisance of the cases in courts and restrain itself on this matter in the interest of peace, as we shall continue to appeal for calm in the town to the best of our ability, but without guarantee in the meantime,” the statement said.
