“This coronation is a moment of divine alignment — the realisation of a long-nurtured dream for a man who has served Ibadan and Nigeria with dignity,” Adeyemi said.

The event marked the continuation of the revered Olubadan succession system, rooted in a hierarchical and age-long chieftaincy structure unique to Ibadan. Pastor Adeyemi urged the new monarch to continue fostering development, tolerance, and inclusive governance, especially as Ibadan grows in population and economic importance. “This city is destined for greatness. With the right leadership and divine guidance, Ibadan will rise again,” he added.
