There is on going speculation that popular Fuji musician Alhaji Isiaka Adeyinka Ishola aka Askari to nko Fuji is set to be named Olubadan of Ibadan Oyo State.
This came as a shock surprised to many people because not long ago that the Olubadan, Oba Lekan Balogun died
What is even making people to be taken aback is the fact that , the Fuji star is yet to quit as a Fuji musician or resign his post as a policeman
But speaking with journalist, Alhaji Isiaka Adeyinka Ishola stated his own side story
" I appreciate you guys for taken time to investigate or can I say to know the truth of the story. This sort of things happen once in my life that was in 1991when people insisted that I have taken a police job I can't be singing again. But what people doesn't understand that time is everything is under planning. Though it is true when one is working for government especially police force, you can't be doing any other job anymore. But I seek advice from the highest authority in Police force and under the then Inspector General of Police (IGP) the late Musiliu Smith may his soul continue to rest in peace I was given a free hand to continue my music carrer together with my police work ,in as much as the music will not affect my police work and so I began and up till now I have been doing that for over three decades. And that is why I am the first Police officer in Nigeria that will be a Fuji musician
So is like what happened then is just rear it heads again
As you all know I am Mogaji of my family the Ile in ibadan which was endorsed by Olubadan. And as we all know that Mogaji title always goes forward,so it is possible I become Olubadan of Ibadan very soon . Or If I may ask you , if they think of good intentions towards you , would you reject it. Definitely no. "
