An Ogun State High Court sitting in Sagamu has granted two separate interim injunctions restraining Governor Dapo Abiodun and three other top government officials from demolishing or interfering with two high-profile properties linked to former Ogun State governor, Otunba Gbenga Daniel.
The orders, issued yesterday by Justice O.S. Oloyede in two different suits, followed ex-parte applications filed by the claimants against Governor Abiodun; the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Oluwasina Ogungbade; the state Planning and Development Permit Authority; and the Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Olatunji Odunlami.
In the first suit (No. HCS/371/2025), Daniel and his wife, Yeye Olufunke Daniel, through their counsel, A.M. Kotoye (SAN), sought urgent judicial intervention to protect Asoludero Court — a sprawling 1,659-hectare estate located in Sagamu GRA (now Awolowo Avenue).
The couple alleged that the state government had served them with a quit notice dated August 8, 2025, threatening demolition of the property.
Officials of the Ogun State Planning and Development Permit Authority had on Friday and Monday pasted four notices – contravention; quit ; sealing and demolition notices on the former governor’s properties.
