This study examines kingship and chieftaincy issues in Orile-Igbon and Ibadan with a view to enunciating emergent challenges in Yoruba kingship culture. It explains the Yoruba perspective on kingship, using socio-historical and anthropological methods of data collection. The analyses are done qualitatively; the study explains the epistemology of the Yoruba kingship system as a culture that has been overwhelmed by a westernized structure which created issues of contestation that challenge Yoruba kingship as an institution. The article seeks to contribute to kingship scholarship in particular and to research in the humanities in general.
