Gov. Ajimobi pays tribute to olubadan
Governor Ajimobi paid
glowing tribute to what he called the
exemplary attributes of the late traditional
ruler.
Governor Ajimboi spoke warmly of the
deceased monarch
The governor said that Oba Odulana left an
indelible mark in the areas of politics, civil
service, military and other leadership
positions he was privileged to occupy before
his ascension to the throne.
“Let us remember with pride that Kabiyesi was
a quintessential patriot and nationalist who
served meritoriously with dignity and
transparency in all the positions that he was
privileged to attain in his lifetime,” Ajimobi
said.
“Let me recall with nostalgia and affection how
Kabiyesi supported our administration’s urban
renewal programme and how he appreciated our
efforts at improving on the beautification of
Ibadan in particular and Oyo state in general.” In his sermon, Most Reverend Olusegun
Okubadejo said the myriad of orations and
tributes from different categories of people
were testimonies to the fact that the revered
monarch had secured his place in heaven.
The priest called on those present to
recognize their need to live a life that would
guarantee them good names and legacies
after their death.
“The most recurring attributes mentioned in the
orations were of his courage, discipline and
aversion for corruption which is common in the
present Nigeria,” Okubadejo said.
