Gunmen opened fire at the palace of the Olubadan of Ibadan land, Oba Saliu Adetunji, during installation of Mogajis and Baales on Monday.

While the activity was going on, the four gunmen in a black Toyota Sienna opened fire repeatedly around 11:45 am, shattering Alli’s car’s glass windows and other cars parked in front of the palace.

Journalists, who were just arriving at the gate of the palace, were caught in the fire, but they escaped being shot as they ducked for cover in the drainage outlet in front of the palace. The shooting, however, did not stop the coronation inside the palace.

I admire the unique Olubadan kingship system, which before now was devoid of rancour. Ibadan sons and daughters, we beg of you, don't throw away your unique culture, and find a way to reunite around Olubadan.
