This is contained in a letter signed by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters, Dr Bashir Olanrewaju.

The letter was addressed to Balogun with the titled: “Installation Ceremony: Olubadan of Ibadan”, which further affirmed Gov. Seyi Makinde’s approval of the appointment of the new Olubadan of Ibadanland.
