Oba Abimbola Ajibola (Otun Balogun) Speaks in this exclusive interview with Abiodun Adewole Mr, Double A Join this channel to get access to perks: / @lagelufm967
Ever since I became an adult in yorubaland, never has there been a time that the stool of olubandan has ever been in contention. However, the advent of the new rules of installing minor obas in ibadan disrupted the process. They should revert to the old way of olubadan-in-council.
Tembelekun! This Baba knows the game he is playing. If the current Oba-designate Olakunlehin dies before coronation, the next Olubadan will still come from the Balogun line. He as Otun Balogun will be the beneficiary. Man plans, God plans and God is the best of planners
Hmmm! This is shameful. So, all traditional rites/Kingmakings are now vested in politicians' hand. I thought yoruba elders should know the history and respect tradition, be courageous enough to put the politicians to where they belong. Unfortunately, they want the governor to dictate to them. Rather, they should clean their house, then, governor only to ratify. Shameful!
The reason behind his rebellion has to do with his ambition to jump queue to become Olubadan and prevent Ladoja from ascending the throne of Ibadanland. He knew that there's likelihood of the next Olubadan not lasting long. We were here when Oba Ogundipe ascended the throne he had lost his sight. We were here when Oba Kobiowu qas was to be by passed when Oba Akinyele died and High Chief Ogunsola was preferred. He should tread softly and stop his shenanigans of disrupting the ordered system of Ibadan obaship because of his self interest. He should remember that what will be, will be.
You want to be the next King, but only the governor can straighten things if he so wishes but Baba remember bikosepe Oluwa ko ile naa 100 bricklayers nse lasan ni Insha Allahu
Kabiyesi ooo Kade pelori sir, please we must not deviated from old style of kingship in ibadan because the whole nation always proud of the way we made our kingship in ibadan. My submission sir.
Awon lobaloba pe ipade, oloye ladoja pe ipade, ojo kan naa si ni ipade naa bo si, sugbon ti ladoja le fi esun kan pe ipade tie wa hasty, sugbon ti awon lobaloba o wa hasty? O ga o!
Ladoja is the one that should be calling the meeting, but because they assume they are king and ladoja refused to be made King, now they want to go behind him.
@@james_smith9 Late governor Ajimobi caused confusion among these people by crowning chiefs and Baale as kings. Olubadan stool enthronment used to be the most organized,unique and peaceful in Yorubaland.
Am very happy to see Ibadan people know that this king is over ambition is disturbing you. Baba Olakuleyin will be made the king over Ibadan Land wait for your turn, let baba Olakuleyin be crown as the king.
We are not fools and we understand the trick of this old man. It is unfortunate that old people will behave like this. Who says that he is also medically fit?
This problem started the moment governors are trying to mend what is not broken out of seer politics and vindictiveness. I envisaged this scenario from the start.
Yoruba Ronu, the selection process of choosing Kabiyesi in lbadan should not be bastardised as the other one has been monetized, so we should exercise patience perseverance and positive attitude to life in Yoruba who has never been conquered during the Yoruba intercinne wars
This man called Abimbola Otun Balogun and Amidu Ajibade ekerin Olubadan òlòtè gba ni won, òdaluru tun ni won pelu, they are the only two not present in the meeting the Ibadan Council of elders called...What want they wanted is Olubadan designate Oba Olakulehin shouldn't ascend the throne of Olubadan and this one called Balogun Olubadan Abimbola takes over
Either the Olubadan designate is fit or unfit let them crown the Olubadan may Allah SWT spear the live of baba even if it's one day he will spend let him be Olubadan After the the baba has spent so many yrs on lineage Nooo is never done
Anyone that will be Oba must legally NOT BE INCAPACITATED and the law doesn’t allow time for a candidate to repucerate, the next in line should come in and life goes on
If clinically & health wise, the next man to occupy Olubadan stool’s okay! Then, a healthy & highly experienced candidate should be selected! Ibadan Stool needs reforms!
I see litigations on litigations henceforth as it concerns the obaship system of Ibadan long been touted as the perfect roadmap to the enthronement of obas in Yoruba land. My thinking is since chiefs are the direct candidates to the Ibadan throne and now they are being made Kings would it be possible for them to become kings and be ruling in their domains and the whole Ibadan?
Going by what is said about the next in line, it appears that he's ill and may not have the mental capacity and vitality to carry out the roles of Olubadan. The right thing to do is ensuring that anyone who wants to lead Ibadan must have the mental capacity and vitality to lead.
The politicians are causing problems.. and playing politics with Ibadan Obaship..Brother Taju diedie,Ema jeki Oloselu lo yin lati ba Ibadan je.. Baba Olakulehin ni Oba kan o le walk or ko le work..elo ja ewe fun lori Bed.
With all due respect to the high chief on his interview, non of the two sides is fair with designate Olubadan rather I see that other side is more sympathy this latter because it would be a big slam if that opportunity is not given to that family to be enthroned, once opportunity lost it is very rear to be regained. What his royal majesty was saying to let them give Oba Olakulehin rest is an indirect way to pave way for him (Oba Ajibola) to become automatic Olubadan and he wanted to avoid that if Balogun line which entitled now for the position is quickly given that chance, - and may God forbids- if the designate Olubadan demises he knows that automatically it will shift to Otun side which he himself doesn't want to happen. The high chief (Oba) wants to paint those other high chiefs black do that people would be thinking they are wicked and unkind to the designate Olubadan whereas he himself wanted to slow the process so that the opportunity will be for him when at last the king cannot make up to the task. The same thing applies to other side but still the other line is more pity than his own opinion because they want the family of Ogboriefon to taste the throne which had gone away from them over 160years ago and beside they want the struggle and patience the designate Olubadan Oba Olakulehin to go in vain without enthronement.
So, the entirety of Ibadan should wait indefinitely until Baba Olakulehin is fit enough to acede to the throne. Really? Time waits for no one and no individual is indispensable. Seyi Mankinde has to intervene and subject the Olubadan-designate to a fitness test. Why aren't we decisive in Nigeria? What's at issue does not need the knowledge of rocket science.
Don’t mind them, hypocrite’s agbalagba the meeting you held was not haste and premature but the one high chief Rasheed Ladoja called was in haste and premature. You people will be put to shame in the end. Olote and Alabosi ni gbogbo yin pelu Oba pangolo tenje kiri.
You can went bawo?....grammar bu!!!!!.....eebo buu!!!!!....you must satisfy the prerequisites of mastery in english before you cast aspersions on old man that is more knowledgeable than you

@@kareemajibola1935 Stop all this rubbish....Ladoja is inline to called the meeting...this protocol before these Pali Obas want to change everything and I pity Ibadan people like me because before 20 years to this time they will destroyed the tradition because of self interest
Baba Ajibola eranti ojo ati sun ote reeee nletungbede tieba fe ki aunbotan yin kodaaa emeba ibadan je ki aromodomo yin maje ninubiya yin efi otesile, gbogbowa lamon wipe baba olakulehin lokan ni igun tiyin, tiedemo wipe ti e bati ja olakuleyin lese eyin lomaakan nigun yin efote sile eniti Lorun bayan lonje olubadan, eranti baba kuye kotodi wipe kabiesi Olatunji je eduro dasiko yin baba
The meeting which High chief Rasheed Ladoja called is premature but the one that the ceremonial Oba's called which you attended, that one is not premature ?
Their hate for Ladoja is at the peak. Its his turn to get to the thrown now and they want to truncate it. Also I suspect political underturn. Perhaps the governor is involve as well.
How does it sound in the mouth of this elderly man that It's the State Governor that installed you as Oba and not the people that you want to be Oba on traditionally. It's awkward. The traditional kingmaker has the duty to announce an Oba of a town or village. This is what the traditional rulers should fight for. The people sent to represent us in the house of assembly betrayed the people they represented by passing the law to favor the politicians so that they could control the citizen of their state without rilvary from any Oba. 16:03 .
Oba laabu ni e je? awon oloselu ni won fe fi oselu ba oye Ibadan je.Awon Gomina oloselu je alailooto,afemiafemi,ofin aariiri ti o le fesemule lo titi laelae
An Obama who benefitted from the Oyin State Government Secretariat Kingship Crown in 2019 is now chosen to be the next OLUBADAN. An Oba to become the new OLUBADAN. 2 Crowns to 1 person within the same Ibadan City. The Traditional Institution has outlived its usefulness. It should be scrapped outright.
This baba may have is own plan, but yet am tired of mourning king in Ibadan, cause the late king balogun only use two years, and people expect Ibadan to enthrone sick king let him recover if oba olakulehin destiny to be olubadan he will definitely be.
This man is fighting for his pocket, even if Olakulehin is in bed sick they should crown him king. They want Olokulehin to die before crowning Him. So that they will get the position. Baba Olakulehin is ageing not sick the way this man put it.
The Otun Balogun of Ibadan is scheming to become the Olubadan through the back door. Who becomes the Olubadan if the Olubadan designate ,God forbids passes away ?
Walking a tight rope. Is Oba Abimbola genuinely interested in giving the Olubadan designate time to recuperate from a recent illness or is he more interested in the disqualification of the Olubadan designate so that he can be the next Olubadan? He appears to think he can hide behind a finger. The outcome will teach everyone a lesson. Man proposes, God disposes.
Awon agbaaya,agba kantanya,alainilakaaye,oponu afofungbemu...awon oba koba why can't we return to the old system of nominating kingship to the olubadan stool? Why must we wait for the governor or politicians before deciding the olubadan kingship? This old fools were spoiling the tradition. Awon alaiye baje. If he's sick or blind olakulehin is the next olubadan and must be installed as quickly as possible without been delayed.
Ladoja knew Baba olakuleyin is not well now that is why he's pushing everyone so that if anything happens to Baba now, he would be his turn to be crowned. Thanks Baba Oba Ajibola for the analysis. It really makes sense
Ladoja is next after Baba Olakulehin. The thing however is that should Baba Olakulehin die, God forbid, before he is installed as Olubadan or disqualified on ground of health incapability, this Baba who is next to Baba Olakulehin in their own line would be installed instead of Ladoja. That he is insisting that Baba Olakulehin be given time to recover may not be unconnected with a wishful thinking that Baba Olakulehin may pass on during the period of wait. In all, may God's will prevail for Ibadan and her people.
But ,why the rush? It was not even twenty four hours after the demise of the late Oba that drummers and praise singers were in the compound of Oba Olakulehin. Oba Lekan Balogun had not been buried. This left a sour taste in the mouth.
That didn't start today. It's our tradition that immediately our king dies, drummers and praise singers should be in the compound of the next Olubadan designate
