Oyo State - Maintain late Okere’s legacy, Ajimobi charges Saki people

[OyoState]

Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State has called on the people of Saki to continue to maintain the legacy of peace left behind by the late Okere of Saki, Oba Olatoyese Kelani, Olarinre II.

He stated this during the burial rites of the traditional ruler who joined his ancestors on Friday.

The Governor said that the contributions of Oba Olarinre to the sustenance of peace and development of Saki land and indeed, the entire State could not be quantified.

He enjoined the kingmakers to ensure that the selection of another Okere should not lead to any crisis in the town.

Earlier in his sermon, an Islamic Cleric, Alhaji Kabir Olohunlase, called on people in position of authority to use their influence to better the lives of the masses.

His Christian counterpart, Rev. Bamgbala Adika, said that the reign of Oba Olarinre had brought peace and development to Saki town, stressing that the long-time rift between Saki and Oyo town was amicably settled during the reign of Oba Olarinre.

Governor Ajimobi later participated in the final prayers for the deceased monarch before his remains were lowered into the grave.
