Osun State Executive Council presided over by His Excellency, Senator Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke has graciously approved the appointment of Prince Muritala Oyelakin from Oyekun ruling house of Iree as the new Aare of Iree in Boripe North Local Council Development Area of Osun State.
The approval came to the fore today, 6th day of March, 2024, at the end of the Osun State Executive Council meeting, held at the Governor’s Office.
It will be recalled that, the stool of the Aare of Iree became vacant sequel to the Osun State Government’s White Paper Report that nullified all the previous actions of the appointed warrant Kingmakers and confirmed the statutory rights of the Iree kingmakers.
The warrant chiefs had subsequently withdrawn their suit, leading to the restarting of the selection process by the kingmakers and forwarding of the king-nominee by the local authority to the state government.
His Excellency, Governor Adeleke and members of the Osun State Executive Council, accordingly, have congratulated the new Oba-elect, Prince Muritala Oyelakin on his appointment.
The Council prays that his reign will usher in peace, growth and development for the Iree community, its environs and Osun State at large.
E Signed:
Oluomo Kolapo Alimi,
Honourable Commissioner,
Information and Public Enlightenment,
Osun State.
