BREAKING NEWS: Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona, Awujale of Ijebuland, Passes at 91

Ijebu Ode, Nigeria — A monumental chapter in Nigeria’s traditional history has come to a close. Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona, the Awujale of Ijebuland, has reportedly joined his ancestors at the age of 91, after reigning with wisdom and grace for over six decades.
The revered monarch, who ascended the throne in 1960, was one of Africa’s longest-serving traditional rulers. His reign witnessed the transformation of Ijebuland into a symbol of cultural pride, economic vitality, and progressive leadership. Often referred to as a king of the people, Oba Adetona was admired for his fearless advocacy, sharp intellect, and unwavering dedication to the development of his kingdom.
Born into the royal Anikilaya family of Ijebu Ode, Oba Adetona was installed as Awujale at the youthful age of 26. Throughout his reign, he became a national figure, respected by politicians, academics, business moguls, and traditional institutions across Nigeria and beyond. His influence extended far beyond royal duties, often shaping national conversations on good governance, traditional relevance, and constitutional order.
Though his exit from this world marks the end of an era, his impact will continue to echo through time. Under his watch, Ijebuland thrived culturally and economically, with landmarks like the annual Ojude Oba Festival gaining international recognition.
Condolences have begun to pour in from dignitaries, royal houses, and citizens, all mourning the loss of a great custodian of Yoruba heritage.
Details regarding funeral rites and official mourning procedures are expected to be announced by the royal family and the Ijebu traditional council in the coming days.
As Ijebuland bows its head in deep reverence, Nigeria remembers a king who ruled not just with a crown, but with courage, vision, and a profound sense of service.
