My father was one of the people that followed the late Olubadan Oba Odulana Odugade to Abuja, when he was to be conferred with the title of the Commander of the Federal Republic by Goodluck Jonathan, he went with just two high chiefs. Sadly, we were almost overlooked, relegated and pushed aside because I felt they expected more people from our royal camp but were disappointed unlike the Sultan of Sokoto that came with pomp and pageantry with a retinue of colourful Emirs numbering about 30 of them. They were treated differently not because of their tribe, colour or religion but because of their number, calibre and number of Emirs that came with him. Immediately after event, the late Olubadan met with the late Chief Kuye, Akinyele and a few of the high chiefs to discuss about the chieftaincy review with the government. So what Governor Ajimobi has done with the elevation and coronation is an amazing and welcome idea. I am certain Oba Odugade will be smiling in his resting place. Ibadan is as big as Kano, if not bigger. Our prominent ruler should never be relegated by an Emir and one way we can ensure that is by ensuring that when our own Olubadan of Ibadanland steps out, he does so in pomp and pageantry surrounded by not mere few high chiefs but by many beaded crown Obas. This amongst others is what the reviewed chieftaincy law that has birthed the new development will achieve. 1 Share

How will this bring development to the state. This is akin to abandoning leprosy, while devoting time to cure ring worm Waste of precious resources |
