A former Oyo state governor, Rashidi Ladoja, will receive the beaded crown from the Olubadan of Ibadan land, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, on Monday, August 12.
Ladoja would be presented with a crown as Otun Olubadan at the inaugural meeting of Olubadan-in-Council to be presided over by Oba Olakulehin.
“Yes. He received the letter on Friday evening that the crown befitting of his status as Otun Olubadan will be presented to him at the inaugural meeting of Olubadan-in-Council to be presided over by Oba Owolabi Olakulehin on Monday,12th August, at the new Palace, Oke Aremo, Ibadan. The meeting will start at 12.00 noon,” a source told Leadership.
Ladoja, the Otun Olubadan, had earlier rejected the beaded crown when the late Oba Lekan Balogun crowned other members of the Olubadan-in-Council.
He also dragged the Oyo State government and the Olubadan-in Council to court over the development, which was later resolved.
The former governor insisted that there was no rancour within members of the Olubadan-in-council, maintaining that the elevated Obas were all his friends.
