Ondo State Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has ordered the closure of Ikare Central Mosque over lingering leadership tussle.
Last week, the Ikare Muslim Council sacked the Chief Imam of the mosque, Sheikh Abubakar Muhammed Abbas, after its meeting held on October 9.
But the League of Imams and Alfas rejected the sacking.
However, Sheikh Abbas led last Friday’s jumat service under heavy security.
Information and Orientation Commissioner Mrs. Bamidele Ademola-Olateju announced the closure of the mosque at a media briefing after the state executive council meeting.
She said the closure of the mosque was among far-reaching decisions on important issues in the state.
The commissioner said the council approved that pupils in public and private schools would henceforth wear traditional attires to schools on Fridays.
She said buildings that trespassed on the state government-owned land would be demolished. CONTINUE READING…
