Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, at the weekend, paid a condolence visit to the family of the late Aseyin of Iseyinland, Oba Abdulganiy Salawudeen Adekunle, at the king’s palace.
Chief Obasanjo, who was accompanied to Iseyin by a former Secretary to the State Government (SSG) in Oyo, Chief Olayiwola Olakojo, prayed for the repose of the soul of the king.
He assured the wives and children of the late Aseyin of his support towards their future endeavors.
“I was supposed to have been here since the death of Kabiyesi, but for many national assignments that have been taking me across Africa and beyond.
“Today, we came through Ibadan to check on one of us, Chief Omololu Olunloyo, who is critically ill. I pray God gives him quick recovery, DailyTimesNGR gathered.
“We do not need to be sermonising for you; we cannot blame God for what He has done. Our prayer is that all he left behind continue to prosper.

“I will still be in constant touch with the palace along with Mayegun (Chief Olakojo); and I will reach out to the queens and the children with our support,” he said.
Oba Adekunle, Oloogunebi Ajinese 1, who died in the early hours of Sunday, July 24, was 62 years old and reigned for 15 years on the throne.
