A state council of traditional rulers and chiefs, also known as a state council of obas in Yoruba language-majority states, refers to any Nigerian state government run body of traditional rulers and chiefs. It is usually headed by a ranking traditional ruler, although the sitting governor of the state retains the right to approve or veto any binding measure taken by the body. State councils, however, are often courted by candidates for state or national offices or by sitting incumbents, usually for the purpose of endorsement.

  • En Nigeria, un Consejo estatal de gobernantes y jefes tradicionales (en inglés, state council of traditional rulers and chiefs), conocido en las regiones yorubas del país como Consejo estatal de Obas ('jefes' en lengua yoruba), es el nombre legal que designa cualquier junta de gobernantes y jefes «tradicionales», amparada por el gobierno estatal nigeriano. Por lo general, está encabezado por un gobernante tradicional de alto rango, aunque el gobernador en funciones del estado se reserva el derecho de aprobar o vetar cualquier medida vinculante tomada por el organismo. Los consejos de estado, sin embargo, a menudo son solicitados por los candidatos a cargos públicos o por titulares en ejercicio, generalmente con el propósito ser respaldados. (es)

  • En Nigeria, un Consejo estatal de gobernantes y jefes tradicionales (en inglés, state council of traditional rulers and chiefs), conocido en las regiones yorubas del país como Consejo estatal de Obas ('jefes' en lengua yoruba), es el nombre legal que designa cualquier junta de gobernantes y jefes «tradicionales», amparada por el gobierno estatal nigeriano. Por lo general, está encabezado por un gobernante tradicional de alto rango, aunque el gobernador en funciones del estado se reserva el derecho de aprobar o vetar cualquier medida vinculante tomada por el organismo. Los consejos de estado, sin embargo, a menudo son solicitados por los candidatos a cargos públicos o por titulares en ejercicio, generalmente con el propósito ser respaldados. Los consejos estatales generalmente se rigen por las leyes emitidas en cada estado nigeriano (Nigeria es una federación). Así, en Abia se da un proceso formal autónomo para reconocer a los gobernantes tradicionales de cada comunidad y para seleccionar entre ellos a los miembros del Consejo de Jefes.​ El consejo tiene poderes limitados y está sujeto al control del gobierno estatal. En noviembre de 2000, el presidente del Consejo de Gobernantes Tradicionales del Estado de Enugu celebró el aniversario (25 años) de su acceso al trono. Tres días después, el gobierno del estado disolvió el consejo de gobernantes tradicional y un mes después le retiró su certificado de reconocimiento como gobernante tradicional.​ (es)
  • A state council of traditional rulers and chiefs, also known as a state council of obas in Yoruba language-majority states, refers to any Nigerian state government run body of traditional rulers and chiefs. It is usually headed by a ranking traditional ruler, although the sitting governor of the state retains the right to approve or veto any binding measure taken by the body. State councils, however, are often courted by candidates for state or national offices or by sitting incumbents, usually for the purpose of endorsement. State councils are typically governed by laws issued by their state. Thus Abia State has a formal process for recognizing traditional rulers of each autonomous community and for selecting from these the members of the Council of Chiefs.The council has limited powers, and is subject to state government control. In November 2000, the Chairman of the Enugu State Traditional Rulers Council celebrated the silver jubilee anniversary of his accession to his throne. Three days later the state government dissolved the traditional rulers' council and a month later withdrew his certificate of recognition as a traditional ruler. (en)
