Emir of Ilorin felicitates Ladoja on approval of nomination as Olubadan
The Emir of Ilorin and Chairman, Kwara Traditional Rulers Council, Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, has felicitated a former Governor of Oyo State, Rashidi Ladoja, on the approval of his nomination as the new Olubadan of Ibadan.
This is contained in a statement on Thursday by the emir’s spokesman, Dr Abdulazeez Arowona.
The state Governor Seyi Makinde on Wednesday approved Mr Ladoja’s nomination as the 44th Olubadan.
“Kings are chosen by Almighty Allah with His divine authority and grace, just like the case of the new Olubadan. He had held positions of authority at various levels before Almighty Allah, in His divine mercies, made him the traditional ruler of Ibadanland,” Mr Sulu-Gambari said.
The emir also congratulated Mr Ladoja on behalf of the entire members of Kwara Traditional Rulers Council.
He urged the Olubadan-in-Council, people of Ibadan, Oyo State Traditional Rulers Council, and Oyo State Government to support and cooperate with Mr Ladoja to make his reign exemplary.
