All things being equal, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, Balogun of Ibadanland, who is the head of the military line of the Olubadan system, is set to become the next Olubadan of Ibadan, OYOINSIGHT.COM can write.
This follows the demise of Oba Lekan Balogun Thursday evening.
Olakulehin’s son, Sunbo Owolabi, was commissioner for water resources in the administration of late former governor Abiola Ajimobi.
Next in line to Olakulehin is Rashidi Ladoja, former governor and senator, who heads the civil line as Otun Olubadan of Ibadan.
The death of Oba Balogun and assumption of office of another Olubadan will cause promotion in the Olubadan system, especially in the Balogun line where the new Olubadan will emerge from.
