Wow! Kabiyesi waja. Ibadan's age-long non-acrimonous method of choosing successive Olubadan will always turn up an aged Oba because candidates spend so long on the queue before it gets to the eventual Oba's turn. With the passing of Kabiyesi, it should be 80-year old Pa Rasheed Ladoja who's likely next in line to the Olubadan's stool. They almost messed up Kabiyesi's political position with fake news during the 2023 Presidential election. Probably Kabiyesi was already dealing with age-related slowdowns. May God console his immediate family, Ibadan, Oyo state and Nigeria as a whole. Nigeria lost a great Nigerian and First Class Royal Father. 86 Likes 6 Shares |

Let’s hope his death will not inconvenience honest folks trying to make a living. Gone should be the days of closing markets for a week while searching for youths to sacrifice. Let the world quickly fast forward so Gen Alpha will take over with their forward-thinking mindset. All these generations who believe in witchcraft should die off. 12 Likes 1 Share |

Sad news indeed. The passing of Oba Lekan Balogun, the Olubadan of Ibadanland, marks the end of an era for the city of Ibadan. His contributions and leadership will be remembered fondly. As we reflect on his legacy, let's also look towards building a sustainable future. Embracing Solar Energy.
