Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams has stated that the transition of the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi III would foster unity among the traditional institutions.
Adams, who stated this during his condolence visit to the palace in Oyo, on Sunday, said many monarchs in Youbaland including the late Alaafin usually disagreed on history but agreed on interest that would move the zone forward.
Recall that Oba Adeyemi died, on Friday night at the Afe Babalola Teaching Hospital, Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State at age of 83 years.
“Yes his transition will foster more unity because in traditional institution, soldier go soldier come. There is no empty of Baracks and the stakeholders will work towards unity.
“We are praying to God for somebody who will be equiped with wisdom to succeed him because the position is so unique and strategic. Definably, his transition will foster unity because we have many Obas in Youbaland and you may see them disagreeing on history but they don’t disagree on interest that will move Yoruba forward.
