<p>Some weeks back, precisely on October 8, 2019, Alaiyeluwa, Oba Rilwan Oluwalambe Taiwo, wrote Chief Zaccheus Adeleye and Chief Bakare Akintunde Jonathan, Baales of Ilupeju Titun and Abule Egba Tuntun respectively.</p>



<p>A statement by Princess Aladegoroye which was made available to OpenLife states that in the letter titled <strong><em>“Reinstatement of Chief Zaccheus Adeleye as Baale of Ilupeju Titun Town and Baale Abule Egba Titun , Ojokoro, Lagos</em></strong>,” the Oba emphasized inter alia “ Sequel to the fulfillment of all what the two Baales were asked to do and its utmost unalloyed patriotism and loyalty to the paramount ruler of Ifako Ijaiye/Ojokoro land, they are hereby reinstated. All privileges, instruments and benefits attached to their offices are also restored back to them. This letter serves as notice to all concerned subjects, general public and relevant government agencies.”</p>



<p>To proof the genuiness of
the reinstatement, the respected Oba copied executive chairman, Ifako Ijaiye
Local Government, the Executive Chairman, Ojokoro Local Government Development
Area, LCDA, Chieftaincy Committee, Ifako Ijaiye/ Ojokoro, Council of Obas, Ojokoro
LCDA, Department of State Security, DSS, Ifako Ijaiye/Ojokoro LCDA, Council of
Elders, Abule Egba Titun and  ;Council of
Elders, Ilupeju Titun.</p>



<p>What Oba Rilwan Oluwalambe
Taiwo did is a demonstration of quality leadership. This is highly commendable,
to say the least.</p>



<p>For centuries, before the
advent of British rule, governance in different parts of present-day Nigeria
was synonymous with traditional institutions and their rulers. Indegenous
administration generally centered on ;
the ; traditional ; ruler ;
who ; was ; considered ;
the ; repository ; of ;
religious, ; legislative, ; executive ;
and  ;judicial knowledge and
functions. The ; nexus ; between ;
the ; traditional ; and ;
modern ; has ; been ;
a ; central ; theme ;
of ; postcolonial ; African philosophy. Indeed, traditional modes
of thought, behaviour and institutions constitute resources to the projects of
modernisation and development.</p>



<p>In effect, the traditional
ruler formed the nucleus of governance. Understandably,
traditional authority is structured on the basis of hierarchy and status with
rules and discipline patterned along environmental peace and developments.</p>



<p> ;Given the distance between the Nigerian state
and the people arising from continued government arbitrariness and neglect of
the needs of the people, Nigerians have strong affiliation to traditional
authority for protection. </p>



<p>It was against this backdrop that while the suspension lasted, the good people in the respective towns were denied the traditional services of the Baales especially in contributing positively to the goals of modernization, organic growth, rapid increase in social wealth and economic development. Significantly, the reinstatement has ushered the desired peace and harmony into the communities. This has ushered in love, continuity, and positive image of the community to the outside world. The people earnestly support their Baales and the traditional stool .</p>



<p>The
cultural significance of the reign of a traditional ruler cannot be neglected. Peace
has since returned to the communities as the wish of the people in having their
most trusted and viable traditional ruler is granted.</p>
