The Olojoda of Oda kingdom in Akure South Local Government Area of Ondo State, Julius Omomo, has died at the age of 83.

“The late monarch cared for his subjects as well as the unity and progress of the state,” he said.
He also described the deceased monarch’s years of reign as remarkably eventful.
