President Muhammadu Buhari has said that the 48-year reign of the deceased Soun of Ogbomosoland, Oba Oladunni Oyewumi, reinforced Ogbomoso’s status as a land of peace.
This is as he condoled with the family of the Monarch who passed away earlier on Sunday.
Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, disclosed this in a statement titled ‘President Buhari mourns Soun of Ogbomosoland.’
The President commiserated with the Government and people of Oyo State and especially the indigenes of Ogbomosoland on the demise of the frontline traditional ruler who reigned for 48 years.
He said Oba Oyewumi’s reign reinforced Ogbomoso as a land of peace, accommodation and a bastion of history and tradition.
Buhari also joined the Oyo State Council of Obas in mourning the First Class Traditional ruler who, according to him, will forever be remembered for his counsel and commitment to the unity and harmony within their ranks.
He, therefore, urged sons and daughters of Ogbomosoland to be consoled with the fact that Oba Oyewumi accentuated his reign with the development and progress of the community through enduring peace and extension of hands of fellowship to peoples of other lands.
The President prayed that Almighty Allah will repose his soul.
