JUST about five months after the death of Iyaloja-General of Oyo State, Alhaja Wuraola Asake Kola-Daisi, the Oyo State Market Men and Women Association has installed her son, Chief Timi Adisa Jogunosimi, as the Akogun Oloja of Oyo State in appreciation of her contributions to the association while alive. He said: “This is a deserving honour in view of our late leader, Alhaja Wuraola Kola-Daisi’s dedication and commitments to the cause of traders, market men and women in the state. “Our mission here today is to praise, honour, celebrate and immortalise our late leader, the Iyaloja-General of Oyo State, Alhaja Wuraola Asake Kola-Daisi who left behind an indelible mark and unforgettable memories. You all will recall that when it became difficult to secure a loan to boost our businesses, our late Iyaloja-General provided us with the interest-free loan of N100,000 per applicant. Honouring her in death by installing her son as Akogun Oloja of Oyo State is the best, more so, Chief himself has been in good relationship with us ever before mama’s departure.”While presenting the certificate to the newly installed Akogun Oloja, the Babaloja General of Oyo State congratulated Chief Jogunosimi on his new title and responsibility.
