The incoming Olubadan of Ibadan, Balogun Saliu Adetunji, while speaking to PM News on the death of the late Olubadan said that he wept bitterly when he heard that his predecessor, the late Oba Odulana Odugade 1 had joined his ancestors.
He continued, “this is the last thing I expect at this moment. I had never thought that Oba Odugade will leave us now that we have started preparing for his 102 birthday anniversary.
“Can we question God? No, we can’t and so we have to accept whatever God brings our way.”
“We had very good relationship. He was a good father. He was a good man. He was a good king. He was too good. He guided us well when he was on earth. We will surely miss him. I pray that God will console us in Ibadan and we will continue from where he stopped. We will continue with the agitation for the creation of Ibadan State.”
“If anybody says that I will become Olubadan, I will not believe the person but now I know God is great and will serve him for the rest of my life.”
