The Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi, on Sunday paid a courtesy visit to the Olubadan-designate, Senator Rashidi Ladoja, at his Bodija residence in Ibadan, Oyo State.
The visit comes days before Ladoja’s official installation as the 44th Olubadan of Ibadanland, scheduled for Friday, September 26, 2025.
The throne became vacant following the death of the 43rd Olubadan, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, who passed away on July 7, 2025, at the age of 90.
The Ooni’s visit is seen as a gesture of solidarity and respect ahead of the coronation, which is expected to draw eminent personalities and traditional rulers from across Nigeria.
