Ijebu State
There has been a move to carve a new state - Ijebu - out of Ogun State, with roughly the same boundaries as the old Ijebu kingdom.[11] Governor Gbenga Daniel of Ogun state supports the change, but is in dispute with the Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Adetona, about where the capital should be located.[12] Lekan Mustapha also actively supports the creation of the state.[13]
