Olubadan Makes Historic Visit To Alaafin Oyo, Breaks 17yrs Jinx

OYO—A 17-year old royal rivalry between the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Adetunji, Aje Ogungunniso I, and the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi ended, yesterday, as the Olubadan of Ibadanland and members of Olubadan-in-council visited Oba Adeyemi in his palace at Oyo town.

Oba Adetunji explained that the purpose of his visit was to thank Alaafin for his presence at his coronation on Friday March 4, 2016, at the Mapo Hall Arcade, Ibadan.

He also disclosed that the visit was to strengthen the cord of unity that binds the two ancient cities together and to promote unity among the Yoruba traditional rulers.

While responding, Oba Adeyemi said he had no problem with the Olubadan describing their relationship as being cordial.

The monarch promised more cordial relationship between the people of Ibadanland and Oyo Kingdom, noting that his relationship with Oba Adeyemi was far back his coronation in 1971.

He prayed for more fruitful years for the Alaafin and himself on the thrones which their ancestors bestowed on them.

While responding, Oba Adeyemi said he had no problem with the Olubadan describing their relationship as being cordial.
