The Olubadan-In-Council, on Monday, nominated Oba Rashidi Ladoja as the 44th Olubadan of Ibadanland.
It would be recalled that the late Olubadan, Oba Olakulehin, joined his ancestors on Monday, July 7, 2025.
Ladoja’s nomination took place at the Olubadan Palace, Oke-Aremo, in the Ibadan North Local Government Area of Oyo State.
Presiding over the meeting, the Balogun Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Tajudeen Ajibola, said, “We (members of the Olubadan-In-Council) have all signed and nominated Oba Rashidi Ladoja as the new Olubadan of Ibadanland.
“We will forward the resolutions of our meeting to our Governor, Seyi Makinde. He will now pick a date to present a staff of Office to the new Olubadan. The late Olubadan, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, will be buried this week. So, this week is not feasible. He (Makinde) may decide to pick three weeks, two weeks or one week.”
