A leading All Progressives Congress (APC) House of Assembly aspirant in Egbeda state constituency, Hon. Lawal Saheed Abiodun, has congratulated the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja, Arusa 1, on his inauguration as the Chairman of the State Council of Obas and Chiefs.
‎
‎It could be recalled that Governor Seyi Makinde inaugurated the state Council of Obas and Chiefs on Thursday and announced Oba Ladoja as the Chairman of the Council in an event held at the Secretariat in Ibadan.
‎
‎In a statement issued on Friday, Lawal congratulated the Olubadan on the inauguration, saying the appointment came at the right time and is meritorious.
‎
‎He said the Olubadan is full of wisdom, political, and traditional experiences to lead the Council, having been a former Senator and former Governor.
‎
‎”So it is a well-deserved appointment,” Hon. Lawal Saheed said.
‎
‎He called on the Almighty God to grant the Olubadan more strength, good health, and long life to pilot the affairs of the state Council of Obas and Chiefs.
‎
‎Lawal also called on the National and State Assemblies to assign constitutional roles to traditional rulers.
‎
‎He said traditional rulers are closest to the grassroots, disclosing that they have roles to play, especially in checking the current insecurity pervading the country.
‎
‎According to Lawal, traditional rulers are in a position to identify bandits and other criminals in their localities, emphasizing that giving them a constitutional role will enable them to function legally.
