‘Security men’ beat up Tijani Oniru, son of late Oba of Oniru [VIDEO]
Tijani Oniru, one of the sons of Oba Abiodun Idowu Oniru, the late Oniru of Iruland, has been spotted in a viral video being beaten by some men who had “security” inscribed on the outfit they wore.
Oba Abiodun Idowu Oniru died in 2019 and squabbles have broken up over the right to the throne.
Though what caused the altercation is still unknown at the moment, however one of the “security” men was heard saying that he came to attack them. Tijani was subsequently pushed out of the gate.
Twitter user @harleem360 who shared the video and also tagged Lagos government authorities in his tweet, wrote;

This is sad, pathetic, cruel, disheartening, heartbroken and Shameful.
If you have any business around Oniru Estate in the next few weeks, just be careful because the person being rough handled in this video is Prince Tijani Oniru (TJ) cousin to the current oba of Iruland, oba Gbolahan Lawal
