Ipinmisho noted that most of the people calling for the destabilization of the rotational arrangement in Ijumu to suit Taofiq Isa’s ambition are doing so under duress, according to him, Alh. Taofiq Isa had on several occassion threaten to sack some of the local government workers who are headbent on supporting his ambition.
