The Olubadan-in-Council has nominated former Oyo State Governor, Senator Rashidi Ladoja, as the 44th Olubadan of Ibadanland.
Ladoja’s nomination was moved by the Balogun Olubadan, Oba Tajudeen Ajibola, and seconded by the Osi Olubadan, Oba Eddy Oyewole, during a meeting held at the Oke-Aremo palace of the Olubadan.
Speaking at the meeting, Oba Ajibola said all members of the Olubadan-in-Council had signed off on Ladoja’s nomination.
He added that the council would now forward Ladoja’s name to Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, for official ratification and for the scheduling of the coronation ceremony, where the Staff and Certificate of Office will be presented.
The nomination follows the completion of the 21-day mourning period for the late Olubadan, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, who died on July 7, 2025, after reigning for one year. Olakulehin succeeded Oba Dr. Mohood Lekan Balogun, Alli Okunmade II, the 42nd Olubadan of Ibadanland.
