The crisis rocking the Ibadan chieftaincy institution appeared to have been laid to rest, yesterday, after members of the Olubadan-in-Council (previously promoted as kings) agreed to drop their titles.

The decision was taken during a meeting at the Olubadan’s Palace in Oja’ba, attended by the coronet-wearing Obas, who were Baales in the suburbs of Ibadan before their elevation, and some Mogajis.

He recalled that the process of nominating the next Olubadan, which kingmakers concluded on Tuesday, was done according to the original concept. He said commenting on the case in court “is sub-judicial.” He maintained that what was taken to court was an infringement on the fundamental human right of the respective plaintiffs, asking the court to determine the lawfulness of judging a case in the absence of the direct beneficiaries of the issue in contest.

Despite the then government’s position that all stakeholders should be carried along, the late Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Adetunji and Osi-Olubadan, who is also a former governor in the state, Rashidi Ladoja, opposed the reform. It was subsequently challenged in the court of law.
