He made this known in a statement made available to InsideOyo, on Wednesday.

He urged the Oyomesi and the state government to hasten the process of selection of the New Alaafin.

The statement reads: “I am Prince Siyanbola Oladigbolu of the Agunloye ruling house which is next to produce the next Alaafin. I am a grandson to the famous Alaafin Siyanbola Akanbi Onikepe Oladigbolu 1 (1911-1944)

“I am a Mariner and Business man based in Lagos, brought up in the ancient town of Oyo before moving to Lagos in 2008.

“I am also among the contenders aspiring to fill the vacuum left by the Late Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III. We are done with the screening since late last year.

“I’m admonishing the Oyomesi to hasten the remaining part of the process to reposition our dear town to where we rightly belongs in Yorubaland.”

Prince Siyanbola Oladigbolu, who listed some qualities the New Alaafin must have, said he has the qualities, adding that he will continue from where the Late Alaafin Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III stopped.

He also promised to preserve the heritage, culture and values. He said the town is safe, if he ascend the throne.

He said: “For Oba Adeyemi III to take oyo this far from 1971 till April 2022 in terms of cultural heritage preservation, the new Alaafin must be ready to sustain the legacy and even go beyond the standards set by the immediate late Monarch.

“The Unification of yorubas world wide has a lot to do with Alaafin and that’s why selecting a new monarch must be carefully handled by the kingmakers.

“An Alaafin must be intimidatingly vocal ,culturally rich , fearful and warrior minded person. when I say warrior, Alaafin must be a defender of Yoruba anytime. But still, We need a development focusing king.

“I possess the aforementioned qualities, and I promise to kick the ball rolling from where the immediate Late monarch stopped.

“With the wealth of experiences I accumulated while working with various local and international investors, I can assure my Oyo people that the town is in safe hand if I ascend the throne by His grace.

“Also the preservation of our heritage , culture and values are sacrosanct.”
