Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose held a closed-door meeting with the Olubadan of Ibadan, Oba Rashidi Ladoja, amidst rising political tension in Oyo State concerning Governor Makinde and potential dethronement issues.

Ayodele Fayose has alleged that Seyi Makinde is plotting to remove the Olubadan, claiming the move would begin with official queries against the monarch for his absence at a recent coronation.

The Central Council of Ibadan Indigenes has criticized former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose for his comments alleging a plot to remove the Olubadan of Ibadanland, urging him not to involve Governor Makinde.

Ayodele Fayose, former Governor of Ekiti State and a senior PDP figure, has urged Ekiti residents to vote overwhelmingly for President Bola Tinubu in the upcoming 2027 presidential election.

Indigenes of Ibadan have warned former governor Ayodele Fayose regarding his unsubstantiated claims of a plot by Governor Makinde to remove the Olubadan, Rashidi Ladoja.
