The Olubadan-designate and Otun Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rasheed Adewolu Ladoja, has admonished all the traditional rulers in Ibadanland to resist land grabbing, crisis and any act that can tarnish the image of Olubadan Advisory Council and Ibadanland.
This is just as he assured the general public that any traditional ruler that aid and abet land grabbing and other criminal acts will be seriously dealt with accordingly.

“You must realize that anywhere you are, you are representing the Olubadan of Ibadanland, his Advisory Council and Ibadanland at large, consequently, you must monitor the Mogajis and Baales under you to protect the dignity and integrity of Ibadanland”, Oba Ladoja said.
Earlier in his remarks, the Alakinyele of Akinyele Oba (Dr.) James Oluyemi Odeniran, disclosed that they were at the palace to register their condolences on the passage of late Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin and to pledge their allegiance to the in-coming Olubadan of Ibadanland.
