The monarchs, who endorsed Akeredolu for a second term, were led by the Chairman and Paramount Ruler of Ugbo Kingdom, Oba Frederick Obateru Akinruntan, the Olugbo of Ugbo.

Others are the Deji of Akure, Oba Aladetoyinbo Aladelusi; Olowo of Owo, Oba Gbadegesin Ajibade Ogunoye III; Olukare of Ikare, Oba Akadiri Momoh; Olubaka of Oka, Oba Yusuf Adebori Adeleye; Abodi of Ikale land, Oba Babatunde Faduyile; Jegun of Idepe in Okitipupa, Oba Michael Obatuga Adetoye; and Kalasuwe of Apoi land, Oba Sunday Adejimola Amuseghan.











Addressing reporters on behalf of the traditional rulers, Oba Akinruntan said they endorsed the governor because he had performed more than his predecessors.

He said the Council of Obas has set up a committee in each of the three senatorial districts to work on the emergence of Governor Akeredolu as the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and his victory at the polls.
