The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) said the ascendancy of former Governor Rashidi Ladoja of Oyo State as Olubadan would bring greater development, peace and prosperity in Ibadan Land.
The Oyo State CAN Chairman, Apostle Joshua Akinyemiju, made the remark in a statement on Thursday in Ibadan.
Akinyemiju said that Ladoja had stood out due to his intelligence and leadership qualities.
He felicitated Ladoja, who would ascend the throne as the 44th Olubadan of Ibadan Land, on Friday.
The cleric said, “I, therefore, on behalf of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Oyo State Chapter, wish to heartily congratulate you on your selection and approval.
“Stepping into this enviable throne is an exciting feat, and we are delighted that God gave you the great opportunity.
“It is our unwavering belief that the dedication, ability and resilience that got you to the throne will continue to serve you well as you move along your acknowledged paths of justice, fairness and equity.
“It is our supplication to God that you thrive on the challenges and joy this ascendancy of the throne brings your way.”
He prayed to God to be with Ladoja.
Ladoja also represented Ibadan North-West in the Senate.
