The Emir of Ilorin and Chairman, Kwara Traditional Rulers Council, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, has felicitated former Governor Rashidi Ladoja of Oyo State on the approval of his nomination as the new Olubadan of Ibadan.
Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, on Wednesday, approved Ladoja’s nomination as the 44th Olubadan.
The Media aide of the Emir of Ilorin, Dr Abdulazeez Arowona, in a statement on Thursday, cited the royal father to have declared:
“Kings are chosen by Almighty Allah with His divine authority and grace, just like the case of the new Olubadan.

The emir also congratulated Ladoja on behalf of the entire members of Kwara Traditional Rulers Council.
He urged the Olubadan-in-Council, people of Ibadan, Oyo State Traditional Rulers Council, and Oyo State Government to support and cooperate with Ladoja to make his reign exemplary. (NAN)
