According to our source, Obasanjo was in Ibadan to congratulate Balogun on his selection as the next Olubadan.

Dr Muhammed Kola Balogun, Balogun’s younger brother, currently represents Oyo South Senatorial District in the current National Assembly.

According to our source, the new monarch’s installation has been scheduled for March 11 in Ibadan.
