Lobatan o! You can't believe this....The Obalufe of Iremo-
Ife, Oba Samuel Omisakin, the traditional prime minister of
Ile-Ife and second in command to the late Ooni of Ife, Oba
Okunade Sijuwade, is dead.
According to Daily Independent, Omisakin who is the leader
of Ife kingmakers passed on in the early hours of Thursday,
October 15.
It was gathered that the late Obalufe of Iremo-Ife was on
his sick bed when the late Oba Okunade Sijuwade Olubuse
II passed on at a London Hospital.
Obalufe’s death is alleged to have negative effect on the
selection of next Ooni of Ife.
Arrangements are being made by the relations for mourning
and burial preparations before the conclusion of selection
process of new Ooni.
According to a source, his demise might not have any
implication on the selection process of the next Ooni,
adding that the next in the rank, Lowa of Ife, Oba Joseph
Ijaodola would likely step in to take charge of functions of
Obalufe who is said to make official pronouncement of the
new Ooni of Ife.
The late Oba Samuel Omisakin ascended the throne on June
1, 1988. He is from Orunto Obalufe Family compound Iremo
Quarters Ile-Ife, Osun state.
As the Obalufe his role includes carrying out traditional
function as well as judicial duties. He acts on behalf of the
Ooni of Ife in some functions. |
