Poisoning: Ijesa Sport Club Suspends Chief Ajibade Pending Police Investigation Results
By Titilola Olaniyan,
The Executive Committee of Ijesa Sports Club has announced the immediate suspension of Chief Gbenga Ajibade, pending the conclusion of investigations by law enforcement agencies regarding his alleged involvement in a serious incident of attempted murder.
This action follows allegations that Chief Ajibade attempted to take the life of a fellow citizen in Ilesa over a maize theft accusation.
During an emergency meeting held on the 6th of August 2025 within the Club premises, the committee expressed grave concerns over the disturbing scenes portrayed on social media, including Facebook.
The images depicting the events surrounding this incident are not only alarming but damaging to the reputation of our esteemed Club.
The committee reached a majority decision to suspend Chief Ajibade until the investigation is finalized, after which he will face disciplinary actions from the club for his unacceptable behaviour.
The integrity and image of Ijesa Sports Club are of utmost importance to us. We cannot allow any member’s actions to bring disrepute to our organization, which has been built on a foundation of respect and community values over the years. It is essential for us to act decisively to protect our Club’s reputation, especially in light of the association that outsiders are drawing between Chief Ajibade and Ijesa Sports Club.
As a respected institution in Ijesaland, Ijesa Sports Club do not abhors any behavior that undermines the lives and dignity of fellow citizens. It is our firm position that no individual is above the law, and we stand in solidarity with the values of justice and accountability.
