A wave of grief has swept through Ogudu following the death of Nojeemdeen Fashola, the revered traditional ruler of the community.

Palace sources disclosed that the first-class monarch died peacefully in the early hours of Thursday at his residence in Ogudu.

Although the exact circumstances surrounding his death were not officially revealed, the palace confirmed that the monarch “departed this world in peace.”

His passing has plunged the ancient community in Kosofe Local Government Area into mourning, with residents, traditional chiefs and sympathisers paying glowing tributes to a ruler widely respected for his humility, wisdom and leadership.

In line with Yoruba traditional customs, several social and commercial activities within the community, including market operations, were reportedly reduced in honour of the late monarch.

Oba Fashola ascended the throne about four years ago and was regarded as a strong symbol of unity, peace and cultural preservation in Ogudu land.

During his reign, he was known for his calm personality, accessibility and commitment to the development and welfare of the community.
