The Owa Obokun of Ijesaland, Oba Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran, has reportedly passed away.
A palace source who craved anonymity died on Wednesday after a brief illness.
Though the Owa Obokun palace has not issued any official statement with regard to the monarch’s passing, sources within the palace confirmed the death of the popular monarch.
The source said, “Baba has passed, but we are waiting for an official announcement from the palace.
“You can see that they have started performing some traditional rites. This has to be done before any announcement can be made,” she added.
There was a heavy presence of security personnel around the grounds of the palace with some traditional rites typically performed following the demise of a king being carried out.
