The former governor would be presented with the beaded crown befitting his status as Otun Olubadan during the inaugural meeting of Olubadan-in-Council at the new Palace, Oke Aremo, Ibadan, to be presided over by Oba Olakulehin at noon.
Former media aide to Ladoja, Lanre Latinwo, who confirmed this, yesterday, said: “Yes. He is receiving the crown on Monday.” It would be recalled that Ladoja had earlier rejected the beaded crown when the late Oba Lekan Balogun crowned other members of the Olubadan-in-Council.He also took Oyo State government and the Olubadan-in Council to court over the development, which was later settled.
However, at a radio programme penultimate Sunday, Ladoja announced his readiness to accept the crown.
