The Chairman of the Planning Committee, Balogun Gaphar Ojetola, led his members on a courtesy visit to the Alalubosa residence of the Olubadan on Monday.

“We rejoice with you, our Kabiesi, on your coronation as the 43rd Olubadan of Ibadanland. May your reign be peaceful and impactful.”

Balogun Ojetola reiterated that the Festival aimed to showcase the rich cultural heritage of Ibadanland through various events, including talent hunts, beauty pageants, and other cultural displays.
