The newly installed Mogaji of the Agunbiade dynasty in Ode Aje, Alaadorin, Oluyoro Oke-Offa area of Ibadan, Chief Tolulope Akinkunmi Afolabi, has declared that his installation as Mogaji of the dynasty is an opportunity for him to render more services to his kinsmen and the people of Ibadanland in general.
The legal practitioner made this disclosure shortly after his installation by the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rasidi Adewolu Ladoja.
The event, which attracted family members, friends, kinsmen, and notable personalities, was held at the Olubadan Palace on Monday.
Afolabi, while speaking with DAILY POST at the event, said that he had been rendering different selfless services to the people of the area and Ibadanland in general.
He, however, said that his installation is another opportunity for him to render more services to the people of the area and Ibadanland in general.
Afolabi added that the implementation of programmes and ideas that will uplift the living conditions of his kinsmen and the people of Ibadanland will be his main priority.
He also disclosed that he will work to support the security agenda of the current Olubadan in order to ensure the promotion of law and order in the ancient city.
Afolabi said: “Prior to becoming Mogaji today, I have been able to make some moves, erecting structures, providing electricity, solar lights; I was able to provide that. There are quite a number of things I intend to do: quality education, health programmes, empowerment programmes. We will provide different channels for people to live meaningful lives.
“Even before this staff was handed to me, we understood that leadership must be proven, not proclaimed. By the grace of God and with the support of my siblings and the youth wing of this house, I completed the installation of solar-powered street lights across the expanded compound in December 2025 to light up the Agunbiade family compound.
“Our mothers and children can now move at night without fear. Darkness has no place in a house that intends to lead. This project was implemented with full support of sons and daughters of Agunbiade at home and abroad, showing what unity can achieve.
“On security, we will strive to create a digital register of all residents and tenants in the Agunbiade compound. This will be shared with local security agencies in support of the Olubadan of Ibadanland’s security agenda.”
