Oba Owoade was presented with the staff of office and instrument of office on Monday, 13 January 2025 at the Governor’s Office in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State.
He completed the compulsory 21-day traditional rites known as
Oro Ipebi on Saturday, 29 March 2025.
Governor Seyi Makinde led a host of dignitaries to the coronation ceremony, including notable Nigerians. They include the Olubadan of Ibadan, Oba Owolabi Olakulehin; the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi; the Soun of Ogbomoso, Oba Ghandi Olaoye.
Also, among the dignitaries in attendance are Oluwo of Iwo,
Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi; and Aare Oona Kankanfo of Yoruba, Iba Gani Adams,
others.
It was also made to believe that this coronation event held at Olivet Baptist High School in Oyo came after scores were settled among the Oyo Mesi (kingmakers) where there seemed to be a clash of interests.
