JUST-IN: Rashidi Ladoja crowned 44th Olubadan of Ibadanland
A former Governor of Oyo State, Oba Rashidi Ladoja, has officially been crowned the 44th Olubadan of Ibadanland.
The coronation rites took place at the Ose Meji Temple in Ibadan South-East Local Government Area, where Ladoja received the traditional Akoko leaf earlier at the Labosinde Compound, Oja’ba.
He is expected to be formally presented with the staff and instrument of office by Governor Seyi Makinde at the historic Mapo Hall.
Governor Makinde reportedly cut short his annual leave to personally attend the ceremony.
Ladoja’s ascension follows the passing of the 43rd Olubadan, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, who died on Monday, July 7, 2025.
Details are still unfolding.
