“Akeem Agbaje: Born into Legacy, Raised for Leadership”

As the political conversation around Oyo 2027 heats up, one name keeps surfacing with quiet confidence and solid credentials — Barr. Akeem Adedeji Agbaje.
Born on April 1, 1968, into the iconic Agbaje family of Ayeye, Ibadan, Akeem’s story is wrapped in a legacy of firsts. His grandfather, Chief Salami Agbaje, was a business magnate, community builder, and one of the earliest Nigerian merchants who championed Western education in Ibadan.
From this lineage came pioneers: Ibadan’s first medical doctor (Dr. Anthony Saka Agbaje), first lawyer (Chief Mojeed Folarin Agbaje), and first Supreme Court Justice (Hon. Justice Abdul Ganiyu Agbaje). Into this heritage, Akeem Agbaje was born — and like those before him, he has stayed true to the family’s reputation for service, intellect, and distinction.
