OLUBADAN CHIEFTAINCY CRISIS, YOUR opinion?

25th Nov 2017, Ibadan records one of the most saddened accident in the account of Yoruba tradition and the history of Ibadan chieftaincy coronation and system. On this day was the appearance of some hoodlums at the palace of Olubadan during coronation of new set of Mogajis for the palace after reviewing of Ibadan Chieftaincy system by the state government in which Olubadan was obviously not in support. In this sorrowful look of colorful event, despite the fact that many dignity sustained injuries, a lot of cars were damaged and people ran helter skelter to protect their lives and property.. After some minutes, new Mogajis were entitled. In leu of this, some questions require answer, did the new Mogajis inaugurated by Olubadan is recognised by State Government. What about the new constitutional Kings, did Olubadan give them any regards. Can a town not state, have more than a King at a time, is there moral preservation in regards of Olubadan during kingship of those Constitutional King, do we promote from king to king, those and many more questions on that..

What is the meaning of the word Yoruba?

What is the meaning of the word Yoruba? Have you always thought about where the word Yoruba originated from? Have you heard many misconception and misapprehension that left you baffled? That was what got hold of me too so I decided to dig into it. What is the meaning of Yoruba? Does it have any inclination to our language?

Our correspondent learnt that the monarch will on November 11, 2017, honour the Minister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu, with the title of Agbaakin Afiwagboye of Ibadan land, and others. This development, observers noted, could further deepen the crisis between the Olubadan and some of his high chiefs, who were elevated by the Oyo State Governor Abiola Ajimobi to the status of kings recently. The new kings had opposed the move by the Olubadan to confer traditional titles on Shittu and others on Saturday (tomorrow).
