The Equity Movement, a prominent advocacy group poised to ensuring equity and fairness in the governance of Oyo State has joined other Nigerians to extend heartfelt congratulations to His Royal Majesty, Oba Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja, as he celebrated his 80th birthday.
Oba Ladoja is not only a distinguished businessman and former Governor of Oyo State (2003-2007), but also a symbol of resilience and a proud believer and defender of Ibadan’s rich cultural heritage.
His tenure in public service, which began as a Senator in the Third Republic, no doubt left a lasting impact, particularly through his unwavering dedication to grassroots mobilization and the advancement of opportunities for all.
As the Otun Olubadan of Ibadanland, his elevation to a beaded-crown-wearing Oba is a testament to his deep-rooted influence and leadership in Ibadanland.
The Equity Movement, championing the quest for power shift in Oyo State in 2027, recognises Oba Ladoja’s antecedents as a fair player, game changer and symbol of commitment to cherished principles.
His life of service, commitment to his faith, and dedication to his people serve as an enduring inspiration to generations.
The group, while praying to God Almighty to continue to protect Oba Adewolu Ladoja, wishes the celebrant continued good health, longevity, and even greater fulfillment in the years ahead, as he remains committed to championing the causes of fairness, equity and better life for all.
