We will never give up our crowns, Ibadan Obas tell Olubadan

Following reports that the elevated Ibadan Obas have agreed to put down their crowns as a precondition for their been reintegrated as members of the Olubadan-in-Council, the new Obas have insisted that their crowns will forever remain theirs having been legally crowned by the immediate past administration in the state.

The Obas said they will never remove their beaded crowns before coming back to the Olubadan palace or ever agree to such terms as a condition under whatever guise

They insisted that before they will ever agree to remove their crowns, the Olubadan of Ibadan, Oba Saliu Adetunji must also be ready to give up his title of His Imperial Majesty conferred on him by the same review that conferred them with the beaded-crown wearing Obas.

The monarchs spoke yesterday at a press conference in Alalubosa GRA area of the capital city.

However, they have added that for them to attend any other reconciliation meetings with the Olubadan, the Obas said the Olubadan must agree with them to wear their beaded crown and ensure that his wife, is not allowed to be present, in line with the tradition of the Olubadan-in-Council meetings.

The monarchs who said, they were played by the Olubadan at the last meeting called, dissociates themselves from the media reports that they have agreed to lay aside their crowns to be able to have access to the Olubadan Popoyemoja Palace.
