The Executive Chairman of Ifeloju Local Council Development Area, Ilupeju Ekiti, Hon.Olusola Michael Oniyelu, has commiserated the families and people of Imojo and Esun Ekiti in Oye and Ikole Local Government Areas over the death of their monarchs on Monday.
Hon Olusola, in a statement made available to journalists in Ado Ekiti, commiserated with the people of the two towns on the sudden death of their Royal fathers – the Onimojo of Imojo Ekiti, Oba Olatunde Samuel Olusola and the Elesun of Esun Ekiti, Oba David Babatunde Ogunsola who were gruesomely murdered by unknown armed men at Oke Ako Ekiti in Ikole Local Government Area while returning from a meeting.
The statement reads in part; “the gruesome murder of these Royal fathers are condemnable, unacceptable, barbaric and painful despite government and Council of traditional rulers efforts at ensuring lives and properties of citizens are well protected from marauders.Those that carried out this heinous act must be unmasked to face the full wrath of law and to serve as deterrent to others.
I pray God grant the deceased eternal rest ; gives their families, communities and Ekiti state the fortitude to bear this collosal lost. God will expose the killers of these reverend kings”
The Ifeloju Boss, who described the deceased monarchs as proactive and passionate about their subjects’well-being, stressed that the duo were naturally endowed in all areas of human endeavors, saying they would be sorely missed. Hon. Olusola wished Alara of Ara –Ekiti, Oba Adebayo Fatoba God’s divine protection.
Recall that Oba Fatoba was also attacked but divinely escaped.
