Tinubu To Attend Eighth-Day Prayer For Awujale In Ogun by TimeManager(op): 10:51am On Jul 19, 2025

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu will depart Abuja on Sunday to attend the eighth-day prayer ceremony for the late Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona.

This was contained in a statement by the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, on Friday.

“The President will join Governor Dapo Abiodun and other dignitaries at the event, which will be held at the Dipo Dina Stadium in Ijebu-Ode,” the statement read in part.

Oba Adetona passed away on July 13, 2025, at the age of 91.

The monarch’s death came as the country was still reeling from the passing of former President Muhammadu Buhari on Sunday.

His remains were laid to rest at his private residence in the Government Reserved Area, Igbeba, Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State.

Dignitaries, traditional rulers, political leaders, and residents paid their final respects in Ijebu-Ode on Monday to the ruler who reigned for 65 years.
The Janazah (Islamic burial prayer) was led by the Chief Imam of Ijebuland, Miftaudeen Gbadegesin Ayanbadejo.

Markets across the town were also shut as directed by the Ijebu-Ode Local Government Area Chairman, Dare Alebiosu, in honour of the departed king.

Like I said earlier, President Tinubu honours humanity first. He has done well to honour his friends, elders and advisers even in death. As families of the deceased, you can't wish for a better President. History will be kind to Mr President.

Just wait and see how the children of perdition will want to come and sow seeds of discord between Tinubu and the Yoruba...

They will claim that Tinubu's non attendance at the funeral of Awujale was a great disservice to the Yoruba people...

FYI, Awujale does not represent the entire Yoruba race and matter of fact, Buhari died before him.

But you are the one complaining. Tinubu was the man talked about and you digressed. Why not talk about Kwakwanso, Atiku, El Rufai, etc, who are well known politically exposed persons too?

And how does that affect the economy or the lives of nigerians?

Is he the president of the dead or president to over 200 million citizens??

Listen to yourself.

Was he ~~elected~~ rigged in to be honouring his associates?
