It was gathered that Oba Odetola was eliminated and burnt beyond recognition instantly he drove into the community around 11 am.

DAILY POST discovered that crisis started in Agodo after Odetola of Ake dynasty was elected as the traditional ruler of the town, an advancement the Owu individuals supposedly rejected, firmly insisting that any person from Ake can not be their king.

While the source of the killing is yet to be determined, a sibling of the late king, Mrs Adenike Akintade, stated a brother to the late monarch was just recently killed.

“I have actually simply been discharged from hospital early this morning, only to begin mourning the ruthless assassination of my brother.

“Kabiesi called me on Saturday, advising me to minimize my activities, saying tension could contribute to my illness.
