Aregbesola shuns Ooni’s burial for Lagos meeting
Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, was
on Friday absent at the interdenominational
service held for the late Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade
Sijuwade.
The governor, who was represented by the
Secretary to the State Government, Mr. Moshood
Adeoti, said the governor was unavoidably absent
because he was invited to Lagos for a very urgent
meeting.
The governor eulogised the late monarch for his
contributions toward the promotion of Yoruba
culture.
He said the late monarch sent a text message to
him before he travelled abroad for medical
attention and committed him and the state
government into the continuous guidance of God.
The governorship candidate of the Peoples
Democratic Party in the August 9, 2014
governorship election, Senator Iyiola Omisore,
who is a prominent son of Ife, attended the
ceremony.
