I pray for peace in Ikare

Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State has warned traditional rulers to desist from fomenting unnecessary trouble over appointment of chiefs.

Akeredolu said this on Saturday in Ikare Akoko at the occasion of official presentation of instrument of appointment and staff of office to Owa-Ale of Ikare-Akoko,Oba Adeleke Adegbite.

The stool of Owa-Ale of Ikare-Akoko became vacant after the demise of Oba Kolapo Adegbite-Adedoyin on Sept. 1 2020.

The governor, represented by his Deputy, Hon. Lucky Aiyedatiwa, said government would not hesitate to deal decisively with any traditional ruler caught indulging in act of lawlessness.





Akeredolu added that any traditional ruler that was dissatisfied with any decision on chieftaincy matters should seek redress in the court of law instead of taking laws into their hands.

The governor urged the newly installed traditional ruler to exhibit high level of integrity in the discharge of his responsibility and should focus his attention on his area of jurisdiction in the town.

“At this juncture,I wish to express my utmost displeasure over the recent mayhem that erupted in this community over the removal and subsequent appointment of the new Olokoja

“We are all aware of the current state insecurity in this country, therefore,under no circumstance shall we tolerate another wave of killing of innocent citizens and wanton destruction of properties over any security issue in the community,much less of any minor chieftaincy matter,” he said.

Akeredolu later assured the gathering that security of all residents of the state is his priority,saying that,”we are making efforts to rid our communities of miscreants and criminals.

Earlier,the Chairman of Akoko Northeast local government,Hon. Omojola Ashimiyu urged the new traditional ruler to be an apostle of peace and carry along all his people both home and abroad in his day-to-day administration.

Ashimiyu also advised the people of the town to embrace peace and support the new traditional ruler so that his tenure would witness unprecedented achievement s.

Responding, the newly installed Owa-Ale of Ikare Akoko, Oba Adeleke Adegbite-Adedoyin II, appreciated the governor for fatherly and leadership role he displayed in maintaining peace in Ikare land.

Oba Adedoyin, who apologised to the governor on recent attempts to disturb the peace in the town,assured that he would continue to speak with his people that be more peaceful and tolerant to avoid future occurrence.

Owa-Ale said, “Going memory lane, this is the 18th Owa-Ale in lkare sinee my progenitors migrated from lle-lfe, the ancestral home of the yoruba people, (oduduwa)

“Permit me to mention that Obaship assignment, like any other leadership role, is a call to selfless service.

“Having accepted my unanimous selection to assume the throne of my forefathers and lead the good people of Ikare Land as the Owa-Ale Adimula, I promise, by God’s grace, not to disappoint you,” Oba Adedoyin said.

Over 60 traditional rulers attended the event including the representative of the Ooni of Ile-Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi and Senator Ajayi Boroffice.

I disagree!
Akure only became the capital of Ondo state as at 1996! Before then, Ado Ekiti was the capital of Ondo state and all our infrastructures and projects were built there until the town was carved along with Ekiti to become an independence state!
Ever since then, Akure which became the capital after the incidence was just the same while the administration made no effort to develop the place other than the government house and the federal secretariat.
The likes of Agagu faced his Okitipupa while doing nothing in the whole state! Adefarati was the same too! All he did was to face his Akoko land where he was able to entice the state and federal government into building the state university and Nysc camp in Akoko land! he did employ people though but with no consistent payment of salary.
Only Mimiko led administration has really done something to refurbish not only the state capital but several Lga. Every lga for example has modern market structures that has toilets and bathrooms, every Lga also have Mega government school with modern facilities (standby Gen, Swimming pools, Computer lab, AC and Fan) and at least 2-3 free luxury School buses per each LGA, Mother and Child hospital in several lga etc! Have you forgotten when he was demolishing several slums and houses that blocked roads in Akure?
There was no Lga he didn't touch! Although, we could say Akure and Ondo towns really felt more of his presence than other lga (e.g dual roads, medical school, medical village and hospital, the Dome, shoprite etc) but one thing is certain, all the lga felt Mimiko's work.
The only problem in his administration is the shortage of power and impromptly payment of the worker's salary! The shortage of power already had his attention with the newly constructed 1000MW power plant in Omotosho (still in progress)!
Mimiko really tried! I just pray the next administration (whether PDP/APC) will continue the good work!

I disagree with you too
Mother n child hospital in every local govt area?? We have just 3mother n child hospital
Omotoso power plan is only 45MW
When last did people sell their wares in Ikare, ljare and Oba market
Though Mimiko tried his bit just like his predecessors. Adefarati employed more people than Agagu n Mimiko combined together
Agagu started most of the dualisation road in Akure and he even did internal Street road, Agagu borehole nko?
So bro it is a collective effort of the past leaders so stop decieving people
Thanks
