The Owamiran of Esaoke, Oba Adeyemi Adediran, has reportedly joined his ancestors.

Oba Adediran, sources close to the palace, said has been indisposed in the last few days.

The royal father, it was also learnt, has not been seen in the public recently, a development attributed to his failing health.

Concerns of the residents over the whereabouts of the royal father heightened on Wednesday afternoon, after his second in command, the Ogboni of Esa Oke, Chief Paul Olamiju, announced a dusk-to-dawn curfew.

Meanwhile, indigenes of the town have taken to social media to mourn the reported passing of the king.

The statement by Olamiju, also directed that the main market in the community be shut immediately, and suspended all social activities in the town forthwith.

The statement partly read further, “The Traditional Chiefs in Esa Oke Obokun Local Government have announced a dusk-to-dawn curfew in the ancient community.

“Rising from an emergency meeting this afternoon in Esa Oke, the Chiefs said movement in the town will be restricted from this evening till tommorow evening.

“According to the Chiefs, the main market in Esa Oke has been shut for a while, as all social activities have also been suspended.

“All visitors, travellers, the students and staff of the Osun State College of Technology Esa Oke are enjoined to take note of the development.”

Efforts to reach Chief Olamiju for more clarifications failed as calls to his line did not go through.
