Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has presented the Staff of Office to the new Alaafin of Oyo, Abimbola Owoade.

Governor Makinde made the presentation at the Exco Chambers of the Governor’s Office in Ibadan, the state capital, on Monday, officially legitimizing the reign of the new Alaafin.

The presentation of the Staff of Office took place amid controversy regarding the selection of the new Alaafin, announced by the governor last week.

The new Alaafin of Oyo, Abimbola Owoade, expressed gratitude to the governor for the Staff of Office and promised to uphold the tenets of his position.

Governor Makinde approved Owoade’s appointment in a statement issued on Friday by the Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Dotun Oyelade.

The symbolic ceremony was held nearly three years after the passing of the former Alaafin, Lamidi Adeyemi III.
