Today marks a historic and joyous occasion for the people of Ibadanland as we witness the coronation of His Imperial Majesty, Oba Olakulehin Owolabi, the 43rd Olubadan of Ibadanland. This momentous event is not only a celebration of our rich cultural heritage but also a promise of a brighter future for our beloved community.

Born on July 5, 1935, in the serene Okugbaja Village near Akanran, now part of the Ona Ara Local Government Area of Oyo State, Nigeria, Oba Olakulehin Owolabi’s life journey has been a remarkable one. His birth was a joyous occasion celebrated by his proud parents, Pa Ishola-Okin Owolabi and Madam Adunola Aweni Ope Ajilaran Omoyoade Owolabi. Following the rich and time-honoured Yoruba tradition, his family waited until the eighth day after his birth to officially bestow upon him his name. In a ceremony held within the family compound on July 12, he was given the name Akinloye Olalere Owolabi Olakulehin, marking the beginning of a journey that would ultimately lead to his ascension to one of the highest traditional titles in Yorubaland.

Today, on the 89th anniversary of his christening, the boy once known as Baby Olakulehin ascends to the throne as the Olubadan of Ibadanland in a grand ceremony at the historic Mapo Hall. This significant event, which will see him don the prestigious beaded crown symbolising his new status and authority, marks a momentous occasion not only for him and his family but also for the entire community that holds the Olubadan title in high esteem. He has chosen to bear the name of the family, Olubadan Owolabi Olakulehin, Ige Olakulehin 1, lifting the banner of his ancestors as the first from his lineage to become the Olubadan.

The coronation was witnessed by the crème-de-la-crème and influential personalities from across the country and beyond. Dignitaries led by governors, ministers, eminent traditional rulers, captains of industries, and academics, among others, gather at the historic Mapo Hall, built in 1929, to witness the coronation of the 43rd Olubadan. This contrasted with the intimate family compound naming ceremony held 89 years ago, showcasing the significant progress and recognition that His Imperial Majesty has achieved.
