Oba Aromolaran Has Left Worthy Legacies, Says Oyebanji 

Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Biodun Oyebanji, has expressed his condolences on the transition of the Owa Obokun Adimula of Ijesa land, Oba Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran.

The Governor, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media, Yinka Oyebode, described the loss of the prominent monarch as painful, huge and monumental.

He noted that the late Oba Aromolaran distinguished himself not only as a first class traditional ruler but as a renowned educationist, father figure, peacemaker, nation builder and a repository of history and knowledge.

Governor Oyebanji said the late Oba Aromolaran left worthy legacies that would continue to benefit generations yet unborn and had immortalized himself in the hearts of the people.

The Governor acknowledged the late royal father’s intellectual prowess as a writer, a teacher and publisher of several books, most of which were the official titles of WAEC for its ‘O’ and ‘A’ Levels examinations for many years.

He expressed regrets that the wise counsel of the deceased would be sorely missed as he was a respected elder looked up to for guidance by contemporary leaders.

While praying for the peaceful repose of the soul of the deceased, Governor Oyebanji prayed God to grant the family, the Owa Obokun-in-Council, the people of Ijesa land, the Government and people of Osun State the fortitude to bear the loss.
