Follow due process before presenting candidates for Mogaji, Baale – Olubadan warns families
The Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Akinloye Owolabi Olakulehin has appealed to all families in the ancient city to follow due process before presenting candidates for the positions of Mogaji and Baale.
Olakulehin gave the advice in a statement made available to DAILY POST on Tuesday.
The statement was signed by Chief Press Secretary to the Olubadan, Chief Solomon Olugbemiga Ayoade.
DAILY POST gathered that the Olubadan had on Monday declined to install Mogaji of Alli-Iwo in Ibadan North East Local Government Area of Oyo State where the immediate past Olubadan hailed from.
He also did not install Mogaji Kojela Isale-Osi compound, Ibadan South West Local Government, Baale Akinsola village in Akinyele Local Government Baale Agbon village and Baale Sukuru both from Lagelu Local Government Area of Oyo State.
The Olubadan noted that installation of the Mogaji and Baale was not approved due to the rancour that emanated from the affected families.
“The two Mogajis and the three Baales were disqualified because their families were divided and did not present consensus candidates, an act which is diametrically opposed to the concept, ideals and values of family headship.
“The headship of families is an age-long tradition of Ibadanland built on the pillars of family unity, cohesion and love. Whoever the family presents must be a consensus candidate without rancour.
“As the consenting authority, I owe it a duty to ensure that persons approved must be representatives of an overwhelming majority of members of the individual families they represent.
“This is a critical and crucial step in promoting peaceful co-existence in Ibadanland which will continue to be a cardinal point of my reign. Those disqualified need to go back to their families and put their house in order.
“No amount of cheap blackmail will derail the palace from ensuring forthrightness, equity and justice in the execution of the royal duties and assignments entrusted to me as the representative of our fore fathers,” he said.
