A source claims that the Olubadan Advisory Council will propose High Chief Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, the late monarch's heir, at the meeting.
The traditional practice of nomination of a new Olubadan by the Advisory Council, according to the source, is usually done after the eighth-day Islamic
prayers for the late monarch, which were held on Friday, March 22, 2024.
The source disclosed that soon after the nomination, a document of affirmation of Olakulehin’s nomination would be sent to Governor Seyi Makinde
through the Office of the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters.
Two lines have historically, on a rotational basis, been producing the occupants of the Olubadan stool. They are the Otun Line (civil line) and the Balogun Line
(military line).
