If Governor Seyi Makinde fails to caution him and Ibadan people are pushed into reacting, the Alaafin will regret his actions.
Oba Adewolu Ladoja surpasses Oba Owoade in age, achievements, social standing, political exposure, business success, leadership pedigree, and his position as the custodian of Ibadan traditional affairs.
Fellows
It is clear that IBADAN does not want Ooni
It is clear that Ibada want their Oba ranked at the same level with Ooni, Allafin and Awujela
This is the second caution to Ooni in Ibadan
They want to restrict Ooni in Ile ife
This Ooni should find other places to visit
because
Ibadan people are tired of prostrating to him
He should now head EAST to meet with MONEY MEN with exciting TITLES money can buy
Ooni was in the EAST at least 5 times in December.
We understand that he does not have places to visit in the WEST
Emir Sanusi spent Christmas in the EAST.
He is now at EVERY STATE FUNCTIONS
IT IS NO LONGER A SECRET THAT EAST IS THE PLACE TO BE FOR ELEGANCE.
These OBA should know that their times are up and now EVERY OBA IS OBA IN HIS OWN TOWN AND LOCAL GOVT AREA.
Ibadan no go agree in this 2026
They are ready and willing to trash it out with outside Oba.

Respect The Olubadan Stool Or Face Consequences - Ibadan Stakeholders To Alaafin
Respect the Olubadan Stool or Face Consequences” – Ibadan Traditional Stakeholders Warn Alaafin
Ibadan traditional stakeholders comprising monarchs, Mogajis, Baales, and prominent sons and daughters of Ibadanland have once again cautioned the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Akeem Abimbola Owoade, against any form of disrespect towards the revered stool of the Olubadan and the Ibadan traditional institution.
The stakeholders condemned the conduct of Oba Owoade, who was reported to have stretched out his hand while seated to greet the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Adewolu Ladoja, during a function held today at the Agodi Government House, Ibadan. They described the action as a gross insult to the Olubadan and the entire Ibadan traditional institution.
According to them, the uncultured act, which was reportedly ignored by the Olubadan, should be taken as a clear warning. They stressed that any further disrespect from the Alaafin would be met with a strong and decisive response from Ibadan traditional stakeholders, including Kabiyesis, chiefs, Mogajis and Baales.
In a statement jointly signed by the President of Ibadan Mogajis, Mogaji Asimiyu Ariori, and the Coordinator of the Ibadan Compound Peace Initiative (ICPI), Mogaji Dr. Nurudeen Akinade, the action of Oba Owoade was described as an embarrassment of the highest order.
The duo stated that Ibadan traditional stakeholders are fully prepared to decisively address any act capable of bringing disrepute to the Ibadan traditional institution.
They further emphasized that Oba Adewolu Ladoja surpasses Oba Owoade in age, achievements, social standing, political exposure, business success, leadership pedigree, and his position as the custodian of Ibadan traditional affairs.
The statement read in part:
“The continuous disrespect of the Alaafin towards the stool of Olubadan and Ibadan traditional institution is becoming intolerable. If Governor Seyi Makinde fails to caution him and Ibadan people are pushed into reacting, the Alaafin will regret his actions.
“We have records of repeated uncultured behaviour towards Ibadan traditional stools. This must stop. Ibadanland will not tolerate further aggravation.
“Ibadan people are not cowards. We are fearless, but we have chosen restraint in the interest of peace.
“Our culture and tradition are sacred. Anything capable of ridiculing them will be firmly resisted.
“The Alaafin cannot come into our territory, sit down, and stretch his hand to greet our highly revered 82-year-old Olubadan.
“Oba Ladoja is a former Senator, former Governor, an international figure, and a successful businessman.
“The Alaafin may choose not to greet the Olubadan, but stretching his hand while seated is an insult to the entire Ibadan traditional institution.
“Ibadanland has never been subordinate to the Alaafin — Ibadan man
