Prince Sikirullai Alade Adebola Ogunlana has emerged the Oba-elect of Magbon Alade in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area of Lagos State.
Ogunlana was unanimously adopted as the Oba-elect by Ipatun, Oketun and Oga, which are the three quarters that make up the royal stool in Magbon Alade.
The Oba-elect was presented to the entire Magbon Alade indigenes on Sunday at a brief but colourful traditional ceremony by the kingmakers in Ibeju land.
Performing the traditional rites of presenting the Oba-elect to the towns people, the traditionalist saddled with the responsibility revealed that all the qualified princes from the three royal quarters were presented to Oketun and Magbon communities for ratification; but added that Ogunlana emerged as the rightful choice to mount the throne.
Ogunlana however, appreciated all the royal families and kingmakers of Magbon Alade, promising not to disappoint the people.
