‎His Imperial Majesty, Owa Clement Adesuyi Haastrup, Ajimoko III on Sunday installed new chiefs in Ijesaland, strengthening the traditional institution and promoting the cultural heritage of the land.

‎The newly installed chiefs are:




‎1. Odole of Ilesa, High Chief Afolabi Makanjuola, a former Onilaje of Ilaje, Ilesa.




‎2. Risinkin of  Isikin Ilesa, Chief Michael Oyedele Oyewumi.



‎3. Chief Bolorunduro of Bolorunduro Ilesa, Chief Olabode.

‎The installation ceremony is a significant event in Ijesaland, marking the appointment of new leaders who will play important roles in the traditional council and contribute to the development of the community.

‎In the meantime, the Palace of Owa Obokun of Ijesaland has launched a regularization process for chieftaincy titles conferred during the reign of Oba Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran.

‎In a public notice, the palace called on affected title holders, including High Chief Ibitoye Adeniyi (Obaala of Ilesa), to approach the palace for documentation and regularization procedures.

‎The process aims to officially confirm and update the titles, ensuring their legitimacy and recognition within Ijesaland.

‎The move is expected to bring clarity and order to the chieftaincy institution in Ijesaland, and promote the cultural heritage of the land.
