Ladoja Draws A Legal Battle Line With Makinde, Olubadan Over Beaded Crown-wearing Obas
Eko Hot Blog reports that Former Governor of Oyo State and the Otun Olubadan of Ibadan, Senator Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja has dragged the Oyo state Governor, Eng. Seyi Makinde; the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Lekan Balogun, and his ten newly elevated beaded crown-wearing Obas to court over the chieftaincy title.
According to The Punch, Ladoja dragged them to Oyo State High Court, Ring Road, Ibadan last Thursday.
It would be recalled that Governor Makinde approved the elevation following the recommendation of Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Lekan Balogun, who is the prescribed and consenting authority.
The Governor had presented the Staff of Office to the new Obas in a historic and well-attended event last Friday.
The new Obas are Owolabi Olakulehin; Tajudeen Ajibola; Eddy Oyewole; Lateef Adebimpe; Biodun Kola-Daisi; Kola Adegbola; Hamidu Ajibade; Olubunmi Isioye; Bayo Akande and Abiodun Azeez while Ladoja, who had earlier rejected the elevation was conspicuously absent at the ceremony.
