The Oloko of Oko in Surulere Local Government Area of Oyo State, Oba Solomon Akinola, has lost his second appeal in the land case he has been contesting with Aagba Kingdom and Tropical Culture Ltd.
Delivering judgment, Justice Uwani Abba-Aji, who led five other justices of the Supreme Court, dismissed Oba Akinola’s appeal filed on December 3, 2025 with Appeal No. SC/ML/593/2025, for abuse of court process.
The pronouncement put finality to the land tussle, which has lingered for a little over 100 years.
Recall that Supreme Court had on November 11, 2024 struck out the earlier Appeal No. SC/CV/550/2021 for being incompetent and Oba Akinola later filed the second appeal, which has now suffered outright dismissal for being an abuse of court process.
