One Olugbenga Jeremiah Oduwole would be crossing over into the new year while in police cell as he was recently arrested for claiming to be a Yoruba traditional ruler with the title of Oriade Of Iranmiyi Kingdom, Adeyenmi II.

He claimed that his palace situated at No 1, Palace Way, Iranmiyi Kingdom, Ogun State, has been arrested in Lagos.
According to BlackboxNigeria, his arrest came after the Oba of Kweme Kingdom in Badagry, Aholu Olalekan Sejiro James, got reports that Oduwole was claiming to be his friend and using that to collect money from people.

He was picked up on December 21, 2017, in Gbagada, by a Team of detectives from Ifako Police Station and has since been moved to the Police Force Headquarters in Ikeja.

A background check on Oduwole showed that he had been in the mischievous business for a while because last year in the company of his cousin, Mrs Abiola and her children, paid the philanthropic Prince Kazeem Austin Eletu-Odibo a royal visit while the latter melted out a royal reception at his penthouse, Osapa London.
