BREAKING NEWS: Ooni of Ife's Third-in-Command Passes On

The third-in-command to the Ooni of Ife, Lowa Adimula, Oba Joseph Ijaodola, is dead. A source close to the palace said Ijaodola died on Friday evening at about 100 years of age.

The source said the palace had yet to officially announce the demise of the traditional chief because some rites had to be performed before the news of his death would be made public. 



Ijaodola was said to have been installed as the Lowa Adimula during the reign of Oba Adesoji Aderemi and he witnessed the installation and death of Oba Okunade Sijuwade.

100 years is a life well spent. RIP!
