Oba Nojeemdeen Fashola Is Dead by iwaeda(op): 12:57pm On May 08
A wave of grief has swept through Ogudu following the death of Nojeemdeen Fashola, the revered traditional ruler of the community.

Palace sources disclosed that the first-class monarch died peacefully in the early hours of Thursday at his residence in Ogudu.

Although the exact circumstances surrounding his death were not officially revealed, the palace confirmed that the monarch “departed this world in peace.”

His passing has plunged the ancient community in Kosofe Local Government Area into mourning, with residents, traditional chiefs and sympathisers paying glowing tributes to a ruler widely respected for his humility, wisdom and leadership.

In line with Yoruba traditional customs, several social and commercial activities within the community, including market operations, were reportedly reduced in honour of the late monarch.

Oba Fashola ascended the throne about four years ago and was regarded as a strong symbol of unity, peace and cultural preservation in Ogudu land.

During his reign, he was known for his calm personality, accessibility and commitment to the development and welfare of the community.

I really still pity people who want to "make am" at all costs... there's an end to these things! You came to this world with nothing, and naked, and it is certain, you shall leave with nothing. A lot has happened in this world before you came into it, and a lot would happen after you are gone!
Take it easy. Only Jesus is worth pursuing!

They usually don’t announce their death immediately it happens until they gather the complete items for the ritual to send them back home

This Oba. This world is nothing. I know in Ogudu now, it will be mixed feelings and reactions. We should take things easy when we are still alive.

Oba wo ajá, surely another one will ascend but we should always leave our footprints in whichever position we find ourselves. Life is transient.

No he is not, stop writing untrue things.

To make it clear he is not the father of the former governor.

Pls don't discourage people with this kind of comments.
People should strive hard to make it in life, even if they die, their parents, siblings, children and others can live off it. Every member of the family can't die in one day na

You're completely correct
Nobody is even permitted to say it out. Kings don't die.
I believe that the day he died, no media space announced it immediately. The announcement must be made by the kinsmen before an outsider can discuss it among themselves.
If you're caught telling someone that the king has died, you're in trouble

The confidence people have in making false statements online needs to be studied. On another note, at least, we knew the father of a former Lagos Governor. Dem no dash am papa undecided
