Olasunmbo, represented by the former Commissioner for Information in Oyo State, Mr. Toye Arulogun, said his father made significant impacts and landmark achievements while he lived.

He said that the endeavours of the late Oba Owolabi Olakulehin, the 43rd Olubadan of Ibadan, cut across politics, business, military career and traditional matters.

“We are not mourning because it is a double celebration of his 90th birthday and glorious passing to eternal glory.

“We also give glory to God because he left enduring legacies for the family,” he said.

NAN reports that the family announcement was preceded by the palace traditional talking drum final display, signifying the end of the late Oba’s era.

Olakulehin, who ascended the throne on July 12, 2024, died in the early hours of Monday, barely two days after celebrating his 90th birthday.

His reign followed that of Oba Moshood Lekan Balogun, Alli Okunmade II, who died on March 14, 2024, at the age of 81. (NAN)
