Son of former Governor of Oyo State, Idirs Abiola-Ajimobi has expressed condolence over the passage of the Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Saliu Akanmu Adetunji, Aje Ogungunniso the first.

The Olubadan joined his ancestors in the early hours of Sunday at the University College Hospital, UCH Ibadan.

In his Condolence message, Idris Abiola-Ajimobi described the passage of the Monarch as shocking and unbelievable.

“Just within the spate of one month, Oyo State lost three highly revered Obas. This is really shocking and unbelievable. First it was the Soun of Ogbomosoland, Oba Jimoh Oyewumi, Ajagungbade the third, second was the Asigangan of Igangan, Oba Lasisi Olawuyi Adeoyo and now the Olubadan of Ibadanland”.

“I’ll like to commiserate with the good people of Ibadanland, and Oyo State in general on this sad incident in the New Year. We have lost another highly successful businessman and a good father to us all. My heartfelt sympathies to the Oyo State Traditional Council of Obas and particularly to the Olubadan in Council for this great loss”.

Idris Abiola-Ajimobi stated that the late Oba Saliu Adetunji was a principled and morally upright traditional ruler whose fatherly advice would be missed.

He prayed for the repose of the soul of the Olubadan and for Allah to grant him Al-Jannah Firdaus.
