“Soun of Ogbomoso, a Conscientious Monarch” —– Alaafin Oba Adeyemi III

The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba ( Dr.) Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi III, condoles with the royal families in Ogbomoso and the incumbent ruling royal family of the Soun of Ogbomoso, Oba Jimoh Oyewunmi Ajagungbade, who joined his ancestors recently.

In a condolence message to the family, the Alaafin described the late Soun of Ogbomoso as a visionary monarch whose contributions to the developments of both Ogbomoso town and the people would remain indelible “.

According to him, prayers and fond memories are what we have to remember of the dearly departed Soun of Ogbomoso. As good heart has stopped beating, a good soul ascended to heaven. May God bless and comfort the entire royal family during this time of grief.

Alaafin Oba Adeyemi III noted that no human being has ever been granted immortality, adding that every creature is bound to die, and whatever has a beginning will certainly have an end.

“Every soul shall taste death.” This is the law that governs life. It has no exceptions or exemptions. The living, then, must take this into account and prepare themselves for it. This short journey on Earth is bound to come to an end, and its end is the death of every living thing. All shall return to God. But whatever happens to us during this trip through life, whether good or bad, is meant as a test.

The Alaafin Oba Adeyemi III , the Paramount Ruler therefore extend warmest and deepest sympathies on behalf of himself and the people of Oyo town to bereaved family and the people of Ogbomoso.

“May the soul of the departed Royal Father be at peace with our his creator. May care and love of those around the deceased family provide comfort and peace to get them through the days ahead.
