Sanwo-Olu congratulates Olusi on installation as Baba Adini of Yorubaland
Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has congratulated Prince Tajudeen Oluyole Olusi, chairman of the Lagos State Governor’s Advisory Council, after his installation as Baba Adini of Yorubaland. Sanwo-Olu described the honour as recognition of Olusi’s leadership and community contributions as the Lagos political figure marked his 90th birthday.
Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has congratulated Prince Tajudeen Oluyole Olusi on his installation as Baba Adini of Yorubaland. Sanwo-Olu announced the congratulatory message in a post on his X account on Saturday. He described the installation as an important honour recognising Olusi’s years of leadership and contribution to the community.
The governor wished Olusi continued strength and wisdom. Olusi is chairman of the Lagos State Governor’s Advisory Council and a longstanding figure in Lagos politics. The installation was carried out by the Yoruba Land Council of Islamic Preachers on Saturday as part of events marking Olusi’s 90th birthday.
The title conferred on him was Baba Adini of Yorubaland. Olusi has held elected and appointed political positions and has written about Lagos history, traditional institutions and chieftaincies, according to the supplied report. His political work has included a long association with public affairs in Lagos.
In March 2025, he was installed as Atobatele of Ado-Ekiti by the Ewi of Ado-Ekiti, Oba Adeyemo Adejugbe. The latest installation therefore adds another traditional and religious honour to those already associated with him. Sanwo-Olu’s message focused on Olusi’s public leadership and service rather than announcing any new government decision.
The supplied material gave no further details about the ceremony, the council that selected him or the responsibilities attached to the Baba Adini title.
