Olubadan Oba Owolabi Olakulehin Passes On

Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, the Olubadan of Ibadanland, has joined his forebears. He was ninety years old.

Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, the Olubadan of Ibadanland, died early on Monday, July 7, precisely one year after taking the throne.

Just two days after Oba Olakulehin celebrated his 90th birthday, he passed away.

Details will be provided soon.

Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde has mourned the death of the king. He wrote;

“I commiserate with the family and all of us. The government will stay with the family and play whatever roles we are supposed to play, including giving Kabiyesi a befitting burial,” he said.

“I will ask all the members of the family to take heart. Coincidentally, today marks the 13th year since my father passed on. So, for the immediate family, I pray for strength.

“We don’t always want them to go; we want them to stay with us. But God has designed our bodies for a certain period,” Makinde added.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.

Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
