Osi Balogun of Ibadanland, Tajudeen Ajibola made this known at a briefing by the kingmakers, disclosing that ten of the 11 members of the Olubadan-in-Council endorsed Balogun’s nomination and no court case can stop him from becoming the Olubadan of Ibadan land.

The business magnate and politician parades an interesting profile — from holding interests in several establishments across the country and abroad, to his foray into politics, serving as a senator in the Fourth Republic after which he also aspired to be President of Nigeria.
