Critical stakeholders in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, have voiced concerns about the smooth execution of the maiden Ogbomoso Cradle Carnival, slated for later this month.

The carnival, approved by the Ministry of Tourism, Art, Culture, and Creative Economy in a letter dated October 9, 2024, has generated excitement among indigenes at home and abroad. However, divisions among traditional rulers in the five local governments that constitute Ogbomoso have cast doubts on its success.

Stakeholders allege that the carnival appears to be centered primarily on Ogbomoso North Local Government, sidelining traditional rulers from the other four local government areas—Ogbomoso South, Surulere, Ogo-Oluwa, and Oriire. They caution that the lack of inclusivity could undermine the event’s objectives.

Chief Olusegun Adaranijo, speaking on behalf of the stakeholders, said:
“The Ogbomoso cultural carnival is threatened by poor road infrastructure in the main city. Articulated vehicles have been stranded for weeks, making movement difficult for indigenes and visitors alike. Many may avoid attending due to anticipated gridlock.”

He also highlighted concerns about inadequate involvement of traditional rulers and communities from outside Ogbomoso North, adding that publicity efforts had been limited to the central area, neglecting other towns like Arowomole, Igbon, Surulere, Ajaawa, Ikoyi, and Tewure.

The stakeholders also pointed out other challenges, including insufficient corporate sponsorship, unreliable power supply affecting hotels and event venues, and a lack of consultation with key community leaders.

“While the organisers’ efforts are commendable,” Chief Adaranijo noted, “more engagement with community leaders and traditional rulers is necessary to ensure the carnival’s success.”

Efforts to get reactions from local social clubs and other stakeholders in the town proved unsuccessful. The concerned stakeholders have urged authorities to address these issues promptly to ensure a peaceful and inclusive event.
