Egalitarian Voice Media report that Prominent indigenes of Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State, met with former governor Senator Rasidi Adewolu Ladoja regarding the ongoing dispute between him and certain High Chiefs recently elevated to the rank of Obas within the historic city.

A source close to the former governor told newsmen on Thursday that the meeting was held at the residence of a former President of Central Council of Ibadan Indigenes (CCII) Chief Bode Amao on Wednesday.

He added that the meeting was attended by Primate Emeritus of Methodist Church of Nigeria, Primate Sunday Ola Makinde, some registered Mogajis (family heads) and other prominent indigenes of Ibadan.

According to reports, tensions have arisen between Ladoja, who holds the title of Otun Olubadan of Ibadanland, and other High Chiefs now recognized as Obas, primarily concerning the Olubadan chieftaincy.

The vacancy in the revered position of Olubadan of Ibadanland emerged following the passing of the 42nd Olubadan, Oba Mahood Olalekan Balogun, who died at the age of 81.

In accordance with traditional customs, the next in line for the position of Olubadan is the Balogun of Ibadanland, Owolabi Akinloye Olakulehin.

As per the established chieftaincy protocols in Ibadan, for Olakulehin to ascend to the role of Olubadan, he must be nominated by the next person to him in his line, Otun Balogun Tajudeen Ajibola, during a gathering convened by the most senior chief in the opposite line, currently Ladoja, within 21 days following the monarch’s demise.
