Former Commissioner for Works and Transport in Oyo State, Professor Abdul-Rahman Raphael Afonja, popularly known as *PARA*, has congratulated Chief Senator Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja on his confirmation as the 44th Olubadan of Ibadanland by Governor Seyi Makinde.
In a statement issued by his media team, Afonja described Oba Ladoja’s confirmation as a remarkable testament to his patience, commitment, and unwavering dedication to the progress of Ibadanland and its people.
He noted that the former governor’s journey to the revered throne was divinely orchestrated despite the many challenges he encountered along the way.
“His emergence as the 44th Olubadan is indeed a divine arrangement. The path has been bumpy and filled with trials, yet his faith and perseverance have brought him here. Rising through the 36-rung hierarchy of the Ibadan chieftaincy system, one of the most organized in Yorubaland, is no small feat,” Afonja stated.
The former commissioner expressed confidence that Oba Ladoja would bring peace, fairness, and progress to Ibadanland, describing his ascension as a sacred responsibility.
