The forthcoming coronation of Oba Owolabi Olakulehin as the next Olubadan of Ibadan land has been announced following the passing of Oba Lekan Balogun on Thursday.
Oba Olakulehin, representing the Balogun lineage, is set to assume the esteemed position, being senior in age to his predecessor, although his exact age remains undisclosed at present.
Originating from Ita Baale in Ibadan North East Local Government, Oba Olakulehin has played an active role within the Olubadan-In-Council for the past decade, demonstrating his commitment to the community.
Prior to his impending ascension, the incoming Olubadan served as a member of the House of Representatives during the Third Republic.
