It was learnt that Haastrup emerged following an election by kingmakers held within the premises of Ilesa West local government secretariat in Ilesa and supervised by the head of local government administration of Ilesa East local government area.

He was reportedly victorious among nine other eligible candidates in the selection process.
Meanwhile, Governor Ademola Adeleke has approved his appointment as the new Owa Obokun Adimula of Ijesaland with immediate effect.

The governor also named Prince Johnson Adekanmi Abikoye as the new Asaoni of Ora Igbomina.

A statement by the commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Oluomo Kolapo Alimi, on Friday indicated that the approval of the two monarchs was ratified and approved during the sitting of the Osun State Executive Council meeting presided over by the governor on Friday afternoon.

The appointment of Prince Haastrup as the new Owa-elect was sequel to the demise of the immediate past Owa Obokun Adimula of Ijesaland, Oba (Dr) Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran II on September 11, 2024 while that of Prince Abikoye as the new Asaoni of Ora Igbomina followed the demise of Oba Tinuoye Atolagbe on November 19, 2023.

Governor Adeleke, while congratulating the two newly approved monarchs whom he said their choices followed due processes in line with the Chiefs’ law of Osun State 2002 (cap 25), enjoined all sons and daughters of the two towns to co-operate with their new traditional rulers, particularly in allowing peace and unity to take the centre stage.

Recall that Haastrup served as Deputy Governor of Osun alongside the late Senator Isiaka Adeleke from January 1992 to November 1993.

He was born on September 19, 1948; hails from the Ajimoko royal family in Ijesaland. He had his early education at Eko Boys’ High School (1963-1967) and pursued further studies at the Federal School of Sciences, Lagos (1968-1969). He later earned a Bachelor of Pharmacy degree from Howard University, USA.
