A traditional ruler, the Alase of Ilase-Ijesa in Obokun Local Government Area of Osun State, Oba Adesina Alobijuwon, has been killed by arsonists who set his palace on fire. He was said to have been burnt to death Wednesday night in his Palace. A traditional chief in the town, Chief Oluwagbemiga Oke, who spoke with newsmen on Thursday at the palace said the monarch’s house which was given to him by a prominent indigene of the town got razed by some unknown people who visited the monarch.
He said that the monarch had attended to five guests who came with a pink colour Mazda car before the incident happened. He said "from what we were told, the house got burnt shortly after the people had left." May his soul rest in peace!
