The Alara of Aramoko Ekiti in Ekiti State, Oba Olu Adegoke Adeyemi, whose life journey bridged decades of public service and traditional leadership, has died at the age of 82.
A statement by his family on Saturday said the monarch passed away on Friday, hailing his “remarkable leadership, wisdom, and dedication to the welfare of his people.”
The statement read, “Oba Adeyemi’s impact on the community will forever be cherished as testament to his enduring legacies.”
Born on December 4, 1942, Oba Adeyemi began as a teacher before rising through the ranks as a senior civil servant and later serving as Sole Administrator of the former Ifesowapo Local Government. His deep engagement in governance and administration laid the groundwork for a reign marked by strategic development.
When he ascended the throne in 2009, he carried into the palace the same hands-on approach that defined his public service years. He also served as “Chancellor of Ekiti State University, where, the family said, “he supported initiatives to enhance educational standards and access for local students.”
“As the Alara of Aramoko Ekiti, he provided strong leadership that fostered community cohesion and development,” the family added, noting that his reign advanced “community development, cultural preservation, conflict resolution, and youth empowerment.”
Burial arrangements, the family stated, would be announced later.
