The death of Oba Saliu Akanmu Adetunji, the Olubadan of Ibadanland has left an hiatus difficult to bridge especially in terms of his Socratic humility which is rare in our clime.
In a release personally signed by Oyo state director ,Mrs Folake Ayoola, She avers ” i have no doubt at all that kabiyesi has joined his ancestors with a mind clean as a whistle and a meritorious scorecard of laudable achievements to flaunt “
The NOA state director states further that” its on the record of the Agency that Kabiyesi honoured all the Agency invites in person even at a next- to- no- notice”.
Mrs Ayoola emphasises that ” Baba would not look in askance on anyone bringing invites from the Agency, rather, he treated such with a despatch and always dignified us with his royal presence “.
The Director added that” the news of his death inspite of his old age, hit us like a cyclone in the Agency, his of ennobling attitude will be greatly missed and we pray that his souls rests on in the bosom of his creator..
Mrs Ayoola therefore commiserates with the Governor of the State, Olubadan in Council,the community leaders and the sons and daughters of Ibadan both home and abroad praying that God himself will fill the vacuum created by his absence and comfort everyone.
