The Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi, paid a visit to the Olubadan designate, Rashidi Ladoja, at his Bodija private residence in Ibadan, on Sunday.
Ladoja is expected to be installed as the 44th Olubadan on Friday, September 26, 2025, following the passing of Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, who joined his ancestors on Monday, July 7, 2025, at the age of 90 years.
The monarch, who arrived at the residence of the Olubadan-designate at 2:12 pm, was welcomed by hundreds of Ibadan residents, including high chiefs, Baales, Mogajis, social cultural groups, and title holders amid drumming, dancing, and jubilation.
He was received at the entrance by Oba Ladoja, accompanied by members of the Olubadan-in-Council.

  Chief Abdulfatai Adekilekun Badmus: The Life and Legacy of Osogbo’s Tireless Builder When the Ataoja of Osogbo, Jimoh Oyetunji Olanipekun, conferred two prestigious titles on Chief Abdulfatai Ajadi Adekilekun Badmus, it was not out of formality or sentiment—it was recognition built on decades of service, sacrifice, and unshakable love for Osogbo. Born on May 28, 1941, Chief Badmus devoted much of his 83 years to education, community development, and public service. His legacy continues to shape the landscape and spirit of Osogbo today.

  The Quiet Power of Micro-Moments: How Small Interactions Shape Big Outcomes In a world obsessed with productivity hacks, grand gestures, and “life-changing” strategies, it’s easy to overlook the tiny fragments of time that quietly shape our days — micro-moments. A micro-moment isn’t about sitting down for an hour-long conversation or scheduling a grand event. It’s those fleeting seconds when you make eye contact, send a quick “thinking of you” message, or hold the door open for someone. On their own, they seem insignificant. But stitched together, micro-moments create the fabric of relationships, trust, and even opportunity. What Exactly Is a Micro-Moment? Psychologists often describe micro-moments as brief, high-value interactions that create connection. They can last just five to thirty seconds, but in that sliver of time, emotions transfer, trust builds, and bonds deepen. Think about: The barista who remembers your name. A colleague who smiles at you before a stressful meeting...

  The Code of a Modern Man Being a man is not just about appearances, strength, or status—it’s about living with integrity, responsibility, and respect. In a world filled with distractions and shifting values, certain principles stand as timeless reminders of what defines true masculinity. 1. Respect Boundaries If a woman says no, back off immediately. Nothing shows character more than respecting someone’s decision without pressure or argument. 2.

Respect Relationships A friend’s partner is always off-limits. Loyalty to your brotherhood should outweigh fleeting temptation. 5. Guide the Younger Ones Correct men younger than you when they stumble. Leadership i...
