The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila has congratulated the 42nd Olubadan of Ibadan land, Lekan Balogun, on his emergence.
Gbajabiamila said the recommendation by the Olubadan-in-Council and the subsequent appointment of the Olubadan by Governor Seyi Makinde has proved that the new Olubadan deserved to ascend the throne.
The speaker urged the new Olubadan to emulate his ancestors, whom he said upheld the rich tradition of Ibadan land.
He said he was convinced that the new Olubadan will use his wealth of experience as a former senator and community leader of high repute to bring development and serve his people better.
Gbajabiamila wished him success in his reign as the 42nd Olubadan, calling on the sons and daughters of Ibadan land to give him the necessary support.
