Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has officially approved the appointment of Oba Rashidi Ladoja as the 44th Olubadan of Ibadanland.

The approval came after a meeting on Wednesday involving a state government delegation, Oba Ladoja, and members of the Olubadan Advisory Council.

Speaking on the development, Chief Adeola Oloko, media aide to Oba Ladoja, confirmed that the installation ceremony will take place on September 26 at Mapo Hall, Oja-oba, Ibadan.

Oba Ladoja, a former governor of Oyo State, recently returned to Ibadan on Monday after spending several weeks away.

His nomination by the Olubadan Advisory Council was made on August 4, following the passing of the late Oba Owolabi Olakulehin on July 7, 2025.

The event is expected to draw dignitaries, traditional rulers, and prominent personalities from across Nigeria, as Ibadan prepares to welcome its new monarch.
