Royal Rumble; Ladoja Drags Ajimobi To Court Over ”Retirement home” (‘the land belongs to me and I will do everything to get it back’ -Ladoja)
Barely six weeks after the erstwhile Governor of Oyo State, Senator Abiola Ajimobi left his exalted office as the Number 1 citizen of Oyo State, papermacheonline can exclusively report that problem is brewing from all sides as another ex Governor of the State, Senator Rashidi Ladoja is threatening fire and brimstone over a piece of land where Ajimobi has built his retirement home.
The land in question sits on a vintage 1.375 hectares in Agodi GRA, Ibadan.
It’s a choice land where Governor Ajimobi has decided to build his fantasy home, in an area where the rich lives in Ibadan.
Papermacheonline has earlier reported that the family of late business mogul, Aare Arisekola Alao was at war with Ajimobi over the property, claiming the land rightfully belonged to their late father.
An independent information made by papermacheonline showed that the land was transferred from an owner to another.
A source revealed to papermacheonline that Governor Ladoja was the first owner of the property, the property was seized from him by Governor Akala who reported to EFCC and the land in question was tagged as one of the proceeds of crime being investigated by the anti-graft commission.
During the process of the trials, Governor Akala sold the land to Aare Arisekola Alao, the muslim scholar later got to know that the land was seized from Ladoja and he didn’t want a confrontation with Ladoja, he presented the land as a gift to Governor Ajimobi who started constructing a country home on it, along the line the EFCC charges against Governor Ladoja was thrown out after 9 years and the matter of the land sprung up.
A top aide of Senator Ladoja in a message to papermacheonline claimed ‘he has won the case in court, so he has all the right to challenge the ownership of that land that rightfully belongs to him. The court discharged him of all wrongdoings, so they should hand over to him his property’.
It is revealed that Senator Ladoja has filed the case in court and confided in a friend that he would use all the necessary means to eject Senator Ajimobi from the property.
Senator Rashidi Ladoja and Senator Abiola Ajimobi despite the two being prominent indigenes of Ibadan and also former Governors, the two are not friends, there are records of discord between the two Ibadan chiefs.
The raging chieftancy matter between the Olubadan and Governor Ajimobi was believed to had a political undertone with the ex governor hitting hard on the Ibadan monarch to get back at Senator Ladoja who is an Ibadan high chief and a confidant of the Olubadan of Ibadan.
When papermache visited the property on Monday, the 9th of June, 2019 the building is 90 percent completed. One of the workers hinted that they are working day and night to meet up the deadline.
A recent viral moment has unexpectedly stirred the political waters for Power Minister Adebayo Adelabu’s 2027 gubernatorial bid in Oyo State. Here’s how it unfolded—and the fallout that followed:
An audio featuring Ibadan socialite, Chief Akinade Fijabi and an unidentified young man surfaced online.
In the audio, Fijabi, an Ibadan high Chief and singer, Wasiu Ayinde’s closest ally bared his thoughts on political bearings in Oyo State and centred it round the Minister for Power, Adebayo Adelabu.
The audio quickly gained traction, sparking laughter and debate across social media platforms in Oyo and beyond.
The audio briefly overshadowed Adelabu’s image and critics seized the moment to question his ability, business sense and highlight potential vulnerabilities in managing grassroots affairs.
Even before the audio, Adelabu’s return to APC and flirtation with a 2027 run had unsettled internal party dynamics. The audio gave fuel to factions already uneasy about his rapid elevation and perceived attempt at imposition.
APC hardliners and youth groups, who’ve openly criticized the party’s handling of aspirants like Adelabu, echoed that the viral moment underscores deeper frustration about favoritism .
Adelabu’s allies are downplaying the audio, arguing that public interactions reflect openness and a grassroots presence and qualities essential for statewide appeal. They’ve also pointed to his achievements, including boosting national grid capacity, as evidence of credible leadership .
Fijabi in the audio also shed some lights based on what he termed ‘reliable information’ on Governor Makinde’s Presidential ambition, claiming it was a plot to collapse the PDP in Oyo State for President Tinubu with an agreement that the Governor would be granted the request to install a successor.
The clip audio shifted part of the conversation from Adelabu’s technocratic record to his public persona. Analysts say managing optics now matters more than ever for his brand.
