Senator Sharafadeen Alli (APC-Oyo South) has expressed deep sorrow over the passing of the Oniroko of Iroko, Oba Ismaila Abioye Opeola, who died in the early hours of Friday.

This is contained in a statement issued by his Media office and made available to newsmen on Saturday in Ibadan.

Senator Alli, the Ekarun Balogun of Ibadanland, described the late traditional ruler as a bridge-builder and symbol of peace, whose death has left a vacuum in Oyo State and beyond.

“His demise marks the end of an era of remarkable leadership, cultural stewardship, and unwavering commitment to the progress and unity of his people.

“Oba Opeola’s contributions to the growth and development of Iroko are evident and will be cherished for generations to come,” he said.

Alli, who served as a past President of Omo Ajorosun Club in Ibadan, recounted his relationship with the late Oniroko, who was also a member of the club.

The lawmaker said that the deceased’s contributions to the socio-cultural association and Ibadanland, was marked by vision, compassion and relentless drive to uplift his community.

“His demise is a great loss to us and I join other members of the club in mourning his departure,” he stated.

He commiserated with the royal family of Iroko, the chiefs and the entire Iroko community.

“On behalf of myself and my family, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the royal family of Iroko, the chiefs and the good people of Iroko town, and indeed all who mourn this irreparable loss.

“May the Almighty overlook his shortcomings, comfort his loved ones and grant them the fortitude to bear this painful exit,” he said.

Senator Alli prayed that the soul of late Oba Opeola rest in perfect peace.
