One of the most important qualities a person should uphold, regardless of their location or background, is good character.
This helps earn the respect and goodwill of others.
In recognition of this principle, residents of Ido Local Government Area in Ibadan, Oyo State, have decided to honour Aare Ayodeji Babalola, the Aare Asipa of Odo-Nla, with the traditional title of Balogun Agbe of Ido, Ibadan Land.
According to a statement released by the organisers, the installation ceremony will take place on Saturday, November 7, 2026, at the Ido Local Government Secretariat in Ibadan, commencing at exactly 10:00 a.m.
Aare Babalola, who is the founder of Jasher Spiritual Products, a traditional and spiritual remedies enterprise and the spiritual head of Okunlola Olokun Temple Worldwide, said he was fully prepared for the installation ceremony.
He expressed delight at the honour, particularly because of its connection with agriculture and nature.
According to him, farming has been one of his longstanding interests, and he has been involved in agricultural activities for many years.
Babalola further explained that the new traditional title would encourage him to intensify his efforts towards developing agriculture in Ido Local Government Area, Ibadan, Oyo State and Nigeria as a whole.
Those expected at the ceremony include the Baale of Farmers in the local government area, Chief Biliaminu Olatunji Apanpa and His Royal Majesty, Oba Gbolagade Muritala Babalola, Gbadewolu I, the Onido of Ido and other dignitaries.
It will be recalled that on August 21, 2026, the Baale of Odo-Ona Nla conferred the title of Aare Asipa of Odo-Ona Nla on Chief Babalola at a ceremony held in the Idi Ayunre area of Ibadan.
The newly honoured chief has now extended a warm invitation to members of the public to attend the forthcoming installation ceremony and celebrate this significant milestone with him.
