Dignitaries Including Vice President Yemi Osinbajo Attend The Funeral of Ooni Sijuwade (PHOTOS)

Public officials attending the monarch's funeral are: Osun State governor, Rauf Aregbesola, and his Ondo State counterpart, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko. They were present at the interdenominational service held at Enuwa Square in front of the Ooni's palace. The event was also attended by several traditional rulers and chiefs. In his sermon, the Bishop of Ife Diocese of Anglican Communion, Rt. Rev. Oluranti Odubogun, said despite his wealth, the revered monarch died at "the appointed time". The bishop, who was represented by Very Rev. Olusola Akanbi, said Oba Sijuwade brought fame and popularity to his domain. He said the monarch's demise demonstrated that every man will die irrespective of their status. Osinbajo in his speech said the Ooni lived an exemplary life.

So if d president himself cum for d burial, wat will happen? Nothg of course. Ooni is a big cap to d yoruba nation. D positionis like a god to them. He was not an oba. So I expect d president who has time to go on a sightseeing in benin republic to attend dis. Afterall d yorubas were part of d pple who #cough# him to power.
