Iyalode Of Golden Angel Not Associated With Ibadan Traditional Title – Golden Angel Club Writes Olubadan
Following the recent controversy surrounding the halted installation of a new Iyalode of Oyo State by the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, a socio-cultural organization, Golden Angel International Fans Club (Foundation), has written to the Olubadan-In-Council to clarify its position on the title.
The club’s letter, signed by its President, Ambassador Bukola Babayale, and Secretary, Alh. Mudashiru Adebayo, emphasized that the title of “Iyalode Of Golden Angel” conferred by the club is purely honorary and not affiliated with the traditional titles of Ibadanland.
The Golden Angel International Fans Club (Foundation) explained that its titles, including the “Iyalode Of Golden Angel” title, are symbolic and intended to promote unity, solidarity, and excellence among its members. The club assured the Olubadan-In-Council that it holds the traditional institution in high esteem and would never intentionally undermine or disrespect the customs and traditions of Ibadanland.
In fact, the club reiterated its deep respect for the Olubadan and the traditional institution, stating, “We hold the Olubadan of Ibadanland and the traditional institution in the highest esteem and would never intentionally do anything to undermine or disrespect the revered customs and traditions of Ibadanland.”
The development comes on the heels of the Olubadan’s decision to halt the installation of a new Iyalode, citing concerns over the legitimacy of the title. The Olubadan had declared the installation illegal and not recognized under the law.
However, the Golden Angel International Fans Club (Foundation) has distanced itself from the controversy, stating that its title(Iyalode Of Golden Angel) is not derived from the traditional titles of Ibadanland. The club has urged the Olubadan-In-Council to disregard any misconceptions or concerns regarding its titles.
The move by the Golden Angel International Fans Club (Foundation) is seen as a step towards avoiding any potential conflict with the Olubadan and the traditional institution. By clarifying its position, the club aims to promote a better understanding of its titles and their significance within the organization.
The development is expected to spark further discussions on the role of socio-cultural organizations in promoting cultural heritage and tradition. As the Golden Angel International Fans Club (Foundation) seeks to clear the air on its title, it remains to be seen how the Olubadan-In-Council will respond to the club’s clarification.
