The Deji of Akure of Akure, Oba Adebiyi Adesida, the monarch that presidesover Akureland, the Ondo State capital is dead.
Details of his passage was sketchy as of press time but our correspondent learnt on Sunday that the monarch died around 4am as a result of an unknown complication.
The 63-year-old first class paramount ruler ascended the throne about three years ago after his predecessor was deposed as a result of a street fight with one of the former monarch’s wives.
A highly competent source confirmed the death but said such announcement could only be made after seven days in accordance with tradition.
Details later.
