Rt Rev Williams Aladekugbe, Bishop of Ibadan North Diocese also prayed for the good health of the monarch and wisdom like that of King Solomon to direct the affairs of Ibadan.
Aremo Olasunmbo Owolabi Olakulehin who responded on behalf of the Olubadan – Designate thanked the Anglican clerics for the visit.
He disclosed that Olubadan Designate’s church attendance last Sunday was the monarch’s initiative as he felt the need to offer his gratitude and thanksgiving to God for his nomination as the next Olubadan of Ibadan.
Meanwhile, the Governor of Oyo State is expected to respond officially to the nomination of the Olubadan – Designate as the 43rd Olubadan of Ibadanland very soon.
