Just saw it on SaharaReporters that the Deji of Akure kingdom, Oba Adebiyi Adesida has died of an undisclosed illness in Akure the Ondo State capital.

A family source revealed that Oba Adesida last attended a public function in Lagos where he celebrated the marriage ceremony of his son, Adetunji Oluwagbemiga two weekends ago.

When SaharaReporters called a source in the palace he said in a local dialect "Oba ti w'aja' meaning the 'the King is gone'.

He also disclosed that the monarch died in his palace as palace guards tried to rescue him.

The monarch who was born into the Ojijigogun ruling house ascended the throne on August 12, 2010 after he was recalled from London shortly after the former Deji was dethroned for abusing his wife.

The late Deji lodged with his entourage in our Hotel at Yaba during the Wedding ceremony of his Son.... May his Soul Rest In Peace.....
