Ajimobi mourns Otun Olubadan
Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi has
described the death of the Otun
Olubadan, High Chief Omowale Kuye, as
depressing to the State and Ibadanland
in particular.
He said the death of the Ibadan high
chief, which came on the heels of the
passing on of the Balogun of Ibadanland,
High Chief Sulaimon Omiyale was a
colossal loss to the people of the State
The governor lamented the death of the
two most senior members of the
Olubadan Advisory Council in quick
succession, which he said marked a
sombre moment in the annals of
Olubadan chieftaincy and Ibadanland in
general.
A statement by the Secretary to the State
Government said that the solace for the
State government, sons and daughters of
Ibadanland, as well as the Olubadan
Advisory Counciul was that the two most
senior high chiefs died at ripe ages.
While High Chief Omiyale died on
November 7 at the age of 91, High Chief
Kuye joined his ancestors on November
19 at the age of 87.
The governor prayed that Allah grant the
souls of the two illustrious sons of Ibadan
land Al-Jannah Firdaus and to give their
families, loved ones and the entire state
the fortitude to bear the great loss.
Oyo State Governor, Abiola Ajimobi
