Olubadan Of Ibadan, Oba Adetunji Dies At 93



The Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Adetunji has joined his ancestors.

The Daily Crucible learnt that the 93-years-old monarch passed away in the early hours of Sunday at the University College Hospital (UCH) in Ibadan, Oyo state.

 
Oba Adetunji was crowned the 41st Olubadan of Ibadan following his coronation on March 4, 2016.

Who succeeds him ?

Olubadan In  Council  

According Ayo Ojeniyi who hails from Eruwa, Oyo State,  there are about  34 steps to climb for one to get into the Olubadan In Council.  All the members of the council are potential future Olubadans with the exception of  Iyalode.  

"To get in to the council you have to climb starting from Mogaji's either through one of the two Lines: The Civil line(Olubadan Igbimo Agba)  or the military line(Balogun).

Once you are in the Council,  you are already fulfilled  bc you are technically a co-Olubadan. Top decisions about the City are made here. 

Below is the current ranking :

Our popular Ladoja is  number 5, so he still has a long way to go if it is the Will of God for him to be an Olubadan. The current Olubadan still have 200 years more to reign  !!! By the way,  they don't kill themselves bc there is an oath to be taken. If you ever think that the man in your front will die,  you are the one to  die.  So,  just live on and let God do His  wishes!!!!
