Olubadan of Ibadanland-Designate
LETTER OF CONGRATULATIONS.
On behalf of myself and the entire Adesina family, wish to heartily felicitate with my father, a role model and new Olubadan of Ibadanland, His Royal Majesty, Oba Senator (Dr) Mohood Olalekan Ishola Alli- Iwo (Ali- Okunmade 2) on your official endorsement as the 42nd Olubadan of Ibadanland by His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Oluseyi Abiodun Makinde.
While thanking Almighty Allah for granting you the grace and privilege to ascend the exalted stool of Olubadan, I have no doubt, as indeed every member of the Adesina family, that yours will be a period of peace, prosperity and unprecedented development in the ancient city of Ibadan, Oyo State and Nigeria at large.
We look forward with great excitement to working with Kabiyesi towards the actualisation of your lofty ideas and programmes designed to take our dear Ibadan to greater heights.. Permit me Kabiyesi to once again wish you very many years on the throne as Olubadan.
As we say in Yoruba parlance: K’ade ope lori, Ki bata ope lese, Ki irukere k’odi Okin!
Yours Sincerely,
Hon. Sheriff Segun Adesina
Member, Environmental Protection Tribunal
Oyo State.
