Saliu Adetunji Is The New Olubadan Of Ibadan by 247frolic(m): 10:25am On Jan 26, 2016 |
[img]http://3.bp..com/-11XxuI6h3Lk/Vqc1cazbVaI/AAAAAAAIIA4/asHaE7_P_Ss/s320/6.jpg[/img] It's double joy for two of the foremost Nigerian Fuji musicians, Alhaji Wasiu Ayinde and Alhaji Sule Alao Adekunle Malaika as the Balogun of the Olubadan-in-council who is now the new Olubadan, High Chief Saliu Adetunji, is a father in-law to Malaika and K1's marketer. Malaika's second wife is one of the daughters of the new Olubadan. Since the announcement of 80 year old man, these two great musicians have been on top of the world because of the influence they would generate in this largest city in Africa. High Chief Adetunji is a famous business magnate who is the founder of 3 foremost music marketing companies known as Omo Aje Sound Studio, Adetunji Label and Baba Laje Records. His company markets Fuji maestro, Alhaji Wasiu Ayinde aka K1 the Ultimate music. He became Mogaji (the head of the family) in 1976. He became Jagun Balogun (the first line on the Balogun rung) in 1978! He is now over 80 years old. High Chief Adetunji elevation is coming after the council lost two of its prominent members late last year in less than two weeks after the death of High Chief Balogun Sulaimon Adegboyega Omiyale, Balogun Olubadan of Ibadanland, who was next in rank to the late Olubadan of Ibadanland, and another second in rank in the Olubadan-In-Council, High Chief Omowale Kuye.

Na wa for Ibadan king makers o. Is old age a criteria for selection. How many years would this one now use on the throne. Just look at how the throne of the Ooni is respected...you don't have new kings after each NYSC batch. 2 Likes |

omusiliyu: yes oo, because it is a que you join as a young man, you become magaji of your clan and follow a line of otun or balogun, if you did not die along the ascendancy, a balogun or an otun becomes olubadan one after the other, fastest ascendancy is about 40yrs. this started since 1940s, ati je oba ibadan ko ni eja nba kan ninu. 10 Likes |

After spending some years in Ibadan, i have often queried the choice of old men as kings, i teased my friends that this gerontocratic monarchy will only increase the brown roofs as older men tends to be conservatives. Then he explained the selection process and i find it intriguing. Any indigene can be King provided you follow the route. The process is kind of long but for general knowledge, its worth reading. The making of an Olubadan Every family and clan in Ibadanland has a Mogaji. Mogajis are family heads. They control the affairs of their family and ensure law and order. They are made Mogajis by the Olubadan after they have been so appointed and the family written to formally inform the Olubadan and the Council. In Ibadan, there are over 2,500 Mogajis or family heads as present. The installation ceremony of Mogajis is often performed at the palace of the Olubadan with pomp and fanfare. A Mogaji is a potential Olubadan in waiting if he eventually succeeds to join the ladder. It takes a whole lot for a Mogaji to become Jagun, the lowest rung of the Olubadan ladder, as there are competitions from other Mogajis. The promotions of such Jaguns are not, however, random, as they are promoted in a sequential and orderly procedure. Upon vacancy in any of the lines, the title holder of a lower rung is promoted to the next rung of the ladder. The Balogun line has 23 rungs while the Olubadan line has 22 rungs. The next Olubadan alternates between the Balogun and the Otun Olubadan. The promotion in the line of Balogun follows this pattern: From Jagun – Ajia – Bada – Are-Onibon – Gbonnka – Aare Egbe Omo – Oota – Lagunna – Are-Ago – Ayingun – Asaju – Ikolaba – Aare-Alasa – Agba-Akin – Ekefa – Maye –Abese – Ekarun Balogun – Ekerin Balogun – Ashipa Balogun – Osi Balogun – Otun Balogun and eventually to Balogun. The journey from Jagun to Balogun will take a prospective candidate through a 23-rung ladder, and, having reached the top of the ladder, he becomes Balogun and would, therefore, wait for his turn to emerge the Olubadan of Ibadanland. The promotion in the line of Olubadan follows the same pattern, but is 22 rungs : From Jagun – Ajia – Bada – Aare Onibon – Gbonnka – Aare-Egbe Omo – Oota – Lagunna – Are-Ago – Ayingun – Asaju – Ikolaba – Aare-Alasa – Agba-Akin – Ekefa – Maye – Abese – Ekarun Olubadan – Ekerin Olubadan – Ashipa Olubadan – Osi Olubadan and finally to Otun Olubadan. The nomenclature looks the same with that of Balogun, until when the prospective candidate finally gets to the Ekarun Olubadan. Upon emergence as the Otun Olubadan, the candidate is set to emerge the next Olubadan of Ibadan land on his turn When death occurs of any member on the ladder, there has to be installation ceremony to the next rank for affected candidates not less than 21 days after the burial of the last occupant. The Olubadan, upon notification of such death, will approve the promotion of others and perform installation ceremony for them at the palace. This is one of the reasons Ibadan chiefs are called Agbotikuyo (someone who rejoices at the death of another candidate). The system has lots of advantages, no in-fighting for the stool and has helped the city to maintain its traditions. But i foresee a radical change soon. The kings in southwestern towns and city are getting younger, more classy and finesse,Ibadan needs a young, well traveled and learned man to take it to the next phase of modernization!! 16 Likes 1 Share |
