Following the passage of Oyo State Council of Obas and Chiefs (Further Amendments) Bill, 2025 into law by the Oyo State House of Assembly.

The newly amended bill retains the rotational chairmanship clause and expands the council's membership.

The House affirmed the rotational chairmanship system, ensuring that leadership alternates among the Alaafin of Oyo, the Olubadan of Ibadanland, and the Soun of Ogbomoso every two years.

According to the speaker, the Council of Obas and Chiefs was expanded from 35 to 41, to foster inclusivity and provide broader representation for traditional leaders across Oyo State.

Among the newly added members are the Olu of Igboora, the Onilala of Lanlate, and the Alado of Ado-Awaye, as well as rotational representatives from various local governments.

The amendments also include provisions for deputy chairmanship and vice chairmanship, further structuring the leadership of the Council.
