JUST IN: Emir Sanusi visits Olubadan in Ibadan

Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, paid a visit to the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rashidi Ladoja, in the capital city of Ibadan on Sunday. The purpose of the meeting was to further strengthen the ethnic bond between the Yoruba and Hausa ethnic groups. Upon arriving at Oke-Aremo, the palace of the Olubadan, Sanusi was accompanied by a large entourage.

Expressing his delight at the opportunity to once again visit the Olubadan Palace, Sanusi stated, “It is a great pleasure for me to visit the Olubadan Palace again. I have maintained a close relationship with many Ibadan indigenes, even before I became the Emir of Kano. So, Ibadan is my second home.” The traditional rulers exchanged private words in an inner chamber before moving to a conference room to address a larger audience.

According to The PUNCH, this visit is the result of the longstanding relationship between the two ethnic groups.
