The Governor said that the local government chairmen must provide the vehicles for the traditional ruler before the end of this month.

He said, “They have also been asking why have we not given a vehicle befitting the status of the Olubadan of Ibadanland to him.

“I have sent a message to the 11 local government areas in Ibadanland and I said they must provide a befitting fleet of vehicles for the Olubadan, and they must do it before the end of this month”.
