Makinde presents staff of office to new Olubadan







Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, on Friday, presented the Staff of Office and the Instrument of Office to the new Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin as the 43rd Olubadan.



The governor made the presentation around 2:45 pm on Friday, at a ceremony at the frontage of Mapo Hall in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.


Makinde, while making the presentation, said, “They said they want to sabotage, they want to sabotage, we are here today at Mapo Hall.


“I, Engineer Seyi Makinde, the Governor of Oyo State by the virtue of power conferred on me, hereby present the staff of office to the 43rd Olubadan of Ibadanland.



“Let us say Kabiesi!”





The scene at Mapo Hall, the venue for the coronation of Oba Olakulehin as the 43rd Olubadan of Ibadanland, was vibrant and bustling.
