Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has accused Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State of plotting to remove Oba Rashidi Ladoja as the Olubadan of Ibadan.

In a post on X, Fayose stated that the move to dethrone Oba Ladoja by the Makinde administration will commence this week.

According to him, the government will cite Oba Ladoja’s absence from the coronation of High Chiefs in Ibadanland as a reason for the dethronement action.

The former governor wrote, “I heard reliably that Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State is plotting the removal of the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rahidi Adewolu Ladoja.

“The plot is to commence this week, with Government Query to be issued against the Olubadan, citing his absence at the failed coronation of High Chiefs in Ibadanland two weeks ago, and other allegations.

“As for us, we will be watching the Sìgìdì of Seyi Makinde tó fẹ́ se eré ẹ̀tẹ́… ”

The Oyo State Government is, however, yet to issue a response to the allegation levelled by Fayose. (The Guardian)
