Two brothers from royal family Mufurau Idowu and Agbabiaka are at logger heads over the rightful descendent to the Osolo of Isolo stool.

Currently Prince Agbabiaka is on the throne but Prince Mufutau is challenging his coronation, insisting that his brother is an impostor that stole his own mandate.

Pursuant to the demise of the last Osolo of Isolo, Oba Rafiu Goloba, there existed a vacancy in the Osolo of Isolo chieftaincy stool. The said late Osolo of Isolo having hailed from the Okota ruling house, it became the turn of the Adeola ruling house to present a new Oba to fill the vacancy.

Reportedly the head of Adeola ruling house Chief Abdul Dada on October 21, 2003 sent the names of potential Obas including that of Idowu and Agbabiaka to the king makers for screening. But Prince Idowu and Agedegudu protested the inclusion of Agbabiaka. They claimed he was not qualified to be nominated in the first place because he is from the female line of the family. The Prince again wrote a formal letter of protest dated October 25, 2003 to the effect that they are from the male line so they should be the only ones to be qualified. Notwithstanding the protests, the kingmakers went ahead to announce Agbabiaka as the new Oba-elect and forwarded the name to the secretary Isolo local government who in turn forwarded same to the commissioner for local government and chieftaincy affairs and the governor of Lagos State.

Aggrieved, Prince Idowu instituted action at the Ikeja high court praying the court for:

•A declaration that the nomination and selection of Prince Agbabiaka as the Osolo-elect of Isolo by king makers is invalid, null and void for being contrary to the customary law regulating the Osolo of Isolo chieftaincy stool.

•A declaration that the presentation of Prince Agbabiaka by king makers was wrongful and contrary to the customary law regulating succession to the chieftaincy stool of Osolo of Isolo.

•A declaration that under the Osolo chieftaincy declaration only the plaintiff being the only male line candidates is suitable and qualified to be proposed as Oba.

•An order compelling the kingmakers to reconvene and reconsider the nomination of plaintiff for the purpose of selecting a new Oba.

•An order of injunction restaining the secretary Isolo local government and chieftaincy affairs from rcognizing or approving the appointment of prince Agbabiaka as the Osolo of Isolo.

•An order of injunction restraining the kingmakers from performing any ceremonies leading to the installation or recognition of Prince Agbabiaka as Oba.

•An order of injunction restraining Prince Agbabiaka from parading himself as Osolo of Isolo.

Another intrigue was added to the case as chief Adamo Dada, who Idowu sued together with the kingmakers, filed a notie of claim washing his hands off the nomination of Agbabiaka as the Osolo of Isolo.
