OLANITE SAHEED BOTEWA,  FIRST BAALE, IDI-OSE IBARAGUN LAND

Olanite Saheed Botewa is the first Baale of Idi-Ose Ibaragun land. He was born on the 3rd of March 1975 to the family of Mr and Mrs Olanite. Mr Olanite hailed from Iro village of Ogun state and got married to Ajibawo family from Ibaragun, which made him build and live in Ibaragun. Olanite gave birth to Saheed. Botewa gave birth to Ope-Ifa, while Ope-Ifa gave birth to Saheed's Mother. Botewa was made the first Oluwoin of Ibaragun town. From inception has been a title that controls and ruled over the land. 

After the death of Botewa, Ope Ifa was enthroned as the New Oluwo in  Ibaragun town and lived up to 100 years before joining his ancestors. 

During his reign as Oluwo of Ibaragun, he was Baale in Maidan land. Ibaragun was expanding in coast as people came into the community for trade and other commercial activities, the expansion prompt the council of elders to expand to Idi Ose village in the axix of Ibaragun land meaning under the Ose tree which after founding of this new village Olanite Saheed Botewa was chosen by the elders and the residents due to his humbleness, and wisdom in consent of his father to oversee the New founded village(Idi Ose) This was done in honor of his great grandfather as compensation to his reign as there are only three ruling families in Ibaragun listed below. The Botewa family. Ewu Soshi and Ewu Soro.   

Furthermore. Olanite Saheed Botewa was installed as the baale in Idi Ose Ibaragun land by His Royal Majesty Oba Olofin Isheri, the Adimula of Awori Kingdom.       The land of Idi-ose is a land of unity, peace, and love, where people from both far and near come to transact their business, also good for commercial purposes, for farming,  agricultural and animal husbandry. 

As at today we have over 6,000 people, many schools, CDA's, healthcare centres private companies to mention a few.  Idi-ose has its boundaries up to Mobiduf filling station. Part of his achievements during his reign to date include electricity, government schools, good pipe-borne water, private institutions, and private electrification by a solar company for better Idi-Ose town. During Ibaragun dispute between Awori and Egba's Saheed, now Baale of Idi Ose father was part of those who fought tirelessly for the judgement of the case in court in favour of the Awori.
