“The death of the Oloro of Oro, Oba Abdulrafiu Ajiboye Oyelaran, is a huge loss not only to the people of Oro Kingdom but the state at large. His Royal Majesty was a kind, accommodating and peace-loving man. He never discriminated against anyone and he was always ready to give listening ears to anyone who consults him.

“I am saddened by the demise of Oba Oyelaran but I am comforted by the fact that His Royal Majesty lived a life that was worthy of emulation.

“I commiserate with the Royal family, the people of Oro kingdom and the entire Kwara State Council of Traditional Rulers. I pray that Allah grants him Aljannah Firdaus.
