Olubadan-designate, Olakulehin not fit to rule now – Otun Balogun
The Otun Balogun Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Abimbola
Ajibola, on Tuesday, declared that the Olubadan-designate, Oba Owolabi
Olakulehin, is still ill and not physically fit to rule at the moment.
The Olubadan stool became vacant
after the demise of the late Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Lekan Balogun, who
reigned for two years and died at the age of 81.
Oba Ajibola, who addressed newsmen at his Sanyo private
residence in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, said, “What is in need for hurry?
Someone (Olakulehin) we have not seen. He has not spoken with us. He has not
spoken with Ibadan people.
“I am his second in command, I’m his lieutenant. He has not
called me to say, ‘My Otun, I’m back. So, tell your people. And when are you
seeing me?’ They are just forcing him because of their own selfish interest.”
