Olomu: Col Bamgboye heads 30-man coronation committee

The Omu-Aran community in Irepodun Local Government Area of Kwara, has inaugurated a committee to oversee a befitting installation for its newly approved monarch, Oba Alhaji Abdulraheem Oladele Adeoti.

Our Correspondent reports that the 30-man coronation committee is headed by Col. Theophilus Bamgboye (Retired) former Military Administrator of Bauchi and Osun States and has Mr Jide Oyinloye as Secretary.

Adeoti with his entourage, had on Saturday, Sept. 15 stormed the community from Ilorin, to commence the seven-day traditional seclusion prior to his installation scheduled for Sept. 22.

The development followed his recent approval by the state government being the kingmakers’ nominee to occupy the vacant traditional stool.

Adeoti emergence followed the demise of the last Olomu, Oba Charles Oladele Ibitoye, who had joined his ancestors on November 30, 2017, after brief illness.
