Before Coronation

Oba J. O. Akapo died in 1989, and it was the turn of the Idobarun Ruling House to produce the candidate that will be installed as the Olofin. The selection process was delayed till 1993, of which Abdul-Lateef Adeniran Akanni was selected through due process. Another candidate from the maternal line of Idobarun Ruling House who was eyeing the position caused an internal crisis which led the matter to the court of law. From the High Court to the Court of Appeal and finally to the apex court of the land, the Supreme Court of Nigeria. Finally Abdul-Lateef Adeniran Akanni was pronounced as the Olofin elect on 12 January 2009 at the Supreme Court of Nigeria.[2]
