Shooting Stars 2-0 Kwara Utd: Oluyole Warriors Daze Harmony Boys'

 Shooting Stars 2-0 Kwara Utd: Oluyole Warriors Daze Harmony Boys'

Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) of Ibadan, returned to winning ways on Wednesday with a 2-0 win over Kwara United of Ilorin.

The Matchday 28 night game, played at the Lekan Salami Stadium, saw the Ibadan soccer lords grab the maximum points via two second half strikes.

Determined to banish the memories of the 1-2 painful loss to Niger Tornadoes on Matchday 27, the coach Gbenga Ogunbote tutored lads took the game to the visitors from the start of the game.

After surviving the opening minutes onslaught from the Stars, the coach Kabiru Dogo lads later settled down to fight back.

After a barren first half, the Ibadan soccer lords finally got the breakthrough three minutes after the restart  through Gideon Monday's stunning shot.

The goal brought out the best in both sides as Shooting Stars pushed to increase the tally while the Harmony Boys' made frantic efforts to level up.

The Oluyole Warriors put the game beyond the hard fighting visitors few minutes to the end of the game when Adewale Yusuf nodded home Ayobami Junior's well floated free kick.

3SC, who have moved to the sixth position with 43 points from 28 matches, will next travel to Kano for a Matchday 29 fixture against Kano Pillars.

Olubadan Stool: Ibadan Elevated Obas May Regret Actions— High Chiefs, Not Kings Can Nominate New Olubadan - Barr. Michael Lana

 Olubadan Stool: Ibadan Elevated Obas May Regret Actions— High Chiefs, Not Kings Can Nominate New Olubadan - Barr. Michael Lana

A former attorney-general and commissioner for justice in Oyo State, Michael Lana, has intervened in the twist in the selection of a new Olubadan.

OYOINSIGHT.COM had reported how the elevated Ibadan Obas failed to honour a meeting called by Otun Olubadan, Rashidi Ladoja, saying that they are bigger than him because the former governor is a high chief.

It would be recalled that Ladoja had been opposed to the chieftaincy review by the government which elevated the high chiefs to Obaship status. He is currently in court challenging the process.

OYOINSIGHT.COM had also reported a subtle move to prevent Ladoja from ascending the throne when it is his turn.

But Lana, who was in court as Ladoja’s lawyer before the late Olubadan, Oba Mohood Balogun was allowed to be enthroned, said that action of the elevated Obas may boomerang should Chief Ladoja decide to fight back.

In an exclusive interview with OYOINSIGHT.COM, the Ibadan-born lawyer who was the governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, in the 2023 election, said that “under the Olubadan declaration, only high chiefs and not Obas can nominate an Olubadan. If they toe this line of argument that a non-Oba could not chair the meeting of the ones, then their meeting is null and void and any nomination made by them as obas is invalid.

“In law, we view the capacity in which a thing is to be done. A person usually has multiple capacities with each capacity controlled by different laws. In this case, the High Chiefs qua high chiefs have a role different from the high chiefs qua Obas. The elevated Obas are in dual capacity; one as Oba and the other as High Chief. As Obas, they cannot nominate a person for the stool of Olubadan; they can only do so as High Chiefs. In the latter capacity, their most senior chief is Chief Ladoja who is also the only person that can validly call a meeting for the purpose of nominating the candidate for the Olubadan stool. I think the elevated Obas should note this difference in their capacities.

“This is part of the problem I knew would happen ab initio. Let me break it down: In the process of nomination of a candidate to fill a chieftaincy the first document you look at is the Chieftaincy Declaration pertaining to that Chieftaincy.

“In elevating the chiefs to Obas, their Chieftaincy Declarations were not amended. Under the defunct White Paper of Ajimobi, it was stated that the Obas would be chiefs under the Olubadan.

“Under the Declaration, the following are the Kingmakers: a) Otun Olubadan, b) Osi Olubadan, c) Ashipa Olubadan, d) Ekerin Olubadan, e) Iyalode f) The Balogun, g) Otun Balogun h) Osi Balogun, I)Ashipa Balogun, j) Ekerin Balogun and Seriki(which is no more)

“To nominate a candidate, the most senior Chief in the line that is NOT producing the candidate shall summon a meeting where the chiefs in the line that will produce the candidate shall do the nomination.

“Note that it doesn’t talk of an Oba in the lines but a chief. Secondly Ladoja is the most senior in the line that is NOT producing the candidate and the only person that MUST summon the meeting,” he added.

Ibadanland: Why we have not yet nominated Olakulehin as new Olubadan —Council of Obas

  

Council of Obas in Ibadanland has said that Olubadan designate, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin cannot be nominated in absentia for Governor Seyi Makinde’s approval as the new monarch for Ibadanland.

The Ekerein Olubadan, Oba Hamidu Ajibade stated this while speaking to the Nigerian Tribune.

Oba Olakulehin has yet to make a public appearance since the transition of the late Olubadan, Oba Lekan Balogun precisely 12 days ago.

The council, as reliably gathered, ought to meet after the eighth Fidau which was held last Friday in accordance with the tradition.

Oba Ajibade hinted that the council met on Monday at the Oja’ba palace, with crowned kings of Ibadanland in attendance except Balogun of Ibadanland, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin.

According to him, the crowned kings of Ibadanland were present at the meeting except Balogun of Ibadanland, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin.

Ajibade stated: “Nine of us, namely Oba Eddy Oyewole (Osi Olubadan), Oba Tajudeen Ajibola, (Otun Balogun), Oba Lateef Gbadamosi Adebimpe, (Osi Balogun), Oba Biodun Koka-,Daisi, (Asipa Olubadan), Oba Kola Adegbola, (Asipa Balogun), Oba Hamidu Ajibade Salaudeen (Ekerin Olubadan), Oba John Isioye Dada,(Ekerin Balogun), Oba Muritala Akande, (Ekaarun Olubadan) and Oba Abiodun Azeez Agagagugu, (Ekaarun Balogun) were in attendance.

All of us are Royal Majesties. We are the Obas that the late Oba Lekan Balogun gave crowns to by the power conferred on him by our governor, Seyi Makinde.

“We are the Oba Advisory Council. We are not Chiefs. The only Oba who is not present at the meeting is Balogun of Ibadanland, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, and we cannot nominate him in his absence.

“We are waiting for the next Olubadan that will come from the Balogun line and that is Oba Owolabi Olakulehin.

“There was not much in our meeting yesterday except that we Obas in Council that have been crowned by the Oyo State government will know the next step to take.

“We have visited the house of the Olubadan designate shortly after the demise of the late Olubadan.

“We met his son, the former Commissioner, Sunbo Owolabi, who told us that Baba was not around. We told him that anytime that he is around they should let us know in order for us to pay homage to him as the new Olubadan.

“Everybody knows what is going on in Ibadan. We know the next king. That is Baba Owolabi. He is the one that will become His Imperial Majesty.

“I am not aware of any scheduled meeting. We the Obas met yesterday, (Monday) and it was concluded that we will continue to wait till we see the new Oba.

When contacted on the telephone, the Otun Olubadan of Ibadanland and former governor of Oyo state, Senator Rasidi Ladoja said that he was not aware of any meeting, stressing that “I was not contacted for any meeting scheduled for Monday.”
