The Governor of Ogun State, Dapo Abiodun, has announced the passing of one of Nigeria’s foremost traditional rulers, Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona.

In a statement he personally signed, Governor Abiodun said: “We Mourn the Passing of Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona, Awujale of Ijebuland With deep sorrow, we announce the transition of His Royal Majesty, Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona, the Awujale and Paramount Ruler of Ijebuland, who joined his ancestors today, July 13, 2025, at the age of 91.

“This sad development, coinciding with the passing of former President Muhammadu Buhari, marks a profound loss not just for Ogun State, but for the entire nation.

“Oba Adetona, who ascended the throne in 1960, was a symbol of unity, wisdom, and development. Under his reign, Ijebuland witnessed unparalleled cultural renaissance, infrastructural growth, and economic advancement.

“His role in elevating the Ojude Oba festival to global recognition, alongside his enduring commitment to education, health, and tradition, will remain a timeless legacy. We honour his remarkable contributions and pray that his soul finds eternal rest.”
