Today through God’s benevolence, I am His Royal Majesty, Oba Amidu Ajibade Salaudeen, the first Ekarun Olubadan of Ibadan land to be a crown-wearing Oba. The elevation of 21 Obas has continued to raise dust in Ibadan land, do you think the disagreement should have arisen at all? Ibadan land is too big for anyone to set on fire and history will not be kind to such person. Oba Abass Alesinloye was the first Olubadan in 1936, Oba Adebimpe was the first crown-wearing Olubadan in 1976. Baba should be grateful to God for being the first to be His Imperial Majesty, (Olubadan akoko ti on fi Oba je).
