Lagos state Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has commisserated with the people and government of Oyo state on the death of Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III.
He stated that the death of Oba Adeyemi is a great loss, not only to the people of Oyo state but the entire yoruba sons and daughters at home and in the diaspora because of the unique position the Alaafin of Oyo holds as a descendant of Oduduwa. He will be greatly missed.
Sanwo-Olu said Oba Adeyemi was one of the great promoters of yoruba culture and tradition, and had contributed immensely to the growth and development of Oyo kingdom and improved the livelihood of the people of the town.
"As a first-class monarch, he left a lasting legacy that the people of Oyo ancient town will continue to cherish," he said.
He prayed that God finds a peaceful resting place for the soul of the late Oba Adeyemi and grant the royal family, yoruba land and the people of Oyo town the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
