The umbrella body of socio-cultural groups in Ibadan, Central Council of Ibadan Indigenes (CCII), has backed the decision of Oyo State House of Assembly to retain the rotational clause of the chairmanship of Council of Obas and Chiefs.
It appealed to aggrieved minority members of the assembly that were not happy with the development, to allow peace reign.

CCII said it was working with a social cultural group of Ibarapa indigenes named Ibarapa Consultative Forum to pursue the actualisation of the creation of Ibadan State.
Speaking during a media parley yesterday, the President-General, CCII, Chief Sulaimon Ajewole, lauded members of the 10th Oyo Assembly for what he described as a robust debate that led to the decision to leave room for rotation of the chairmanship position of Oyo Council of Obas and Chiefs.
