Oyo State gubernatorial hopeful Engr Joseph Tegbe has commiserated with family of Soun Ogbomoso who transited to another world in the early hours of Sunday.
“I received with shock, the passage of our Distinguished Royal Father, Òba Jimoh Oyewumi Ajagungbade, the Soun of Ogbomosho.
“Kabiyesi was an icon of peace and development under whose reign Ogbomoso witnessed unprecedented advancement economically, socially, educationally and politically.
“Kabiyesi was a father to me, and he indeed played this role as the Father of the Day at my wedding ceremony about 3 decades ago. Till his last moment, he remained a pillar of support to me, my darling wife – Abimbola and our entire family.
“I hereby extend my condolences to the entire Royal Family especially Olori Aunty Laronke, the Oyo State Government, H.E Otunba Alao Akala, Sen. Fatai Buhari, Sen Ayo Adeseun and the entire sons and daughters of Ogbomoso land and Oyo state in general.
“May the Almighty console all of us, overlook his shortcomings and admit him into Aljanah Firdaus”.
