Some concerned members of the Ladigbolu royal lineage of Agunloye's family in Oyo town, have appealed to Governor Oluseyi Makinde to use the same wisdom he applied while picking the new Soun of Ogbomoso in selecting who would be the next Alaafin

The group, in a statement signed by its coordinator, Lekan Salman Ladigbolu, also called for a resolution so that a younger person from the lineage would be presented to the kingmakers.

The group refuted the claims flying around that the family has anointed a candidate among those aspiring for the position of Alaafin of Oyo.

The youth also cautioned those aspiring to be Alaafin not to allow “their personal ego and selfish interest create a crack in the family”.

Eight members of the Ladigbolu family including Bishop Ayo Ladigbolu Abideen, Olaide Ladigbolu, Adewale Aderemi Ladigbolu, Akeem Aderibigbe Adigun Ladigbolu, Lukman Alabi Olugbenga Ladigbolu, Ayobami Ladigbolu, Kolade Sani Ladigbolu are vying for the throne of Alaafin.

The group’s coordinator noted that all aspirants from the family are eminently qualified but 'we will appreciate it better if the aged ones among them can step down and play advisory roles to the younger ones in the race

The statement added, "Oyo needs an Alaafin that will be an influential member of the society with a highly wired network and intelligence so that the historical community can enjoy rapid transformation in terms of infrastructural and economic development.”

Lol.....
