Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, on Saturday, declared that the processes that would lead to the emergency of the next Alaafin of Oyo would be strictly based on the Alaafin of Oyo Chieftaincy Declaration.
The governor, who stated this while speaking at the state burial ceremony organised for the late Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi III, said the late monarch lived an impactful life.
A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Mr. Taiwo Adisa, quoted the governor as saying that the state lost an irreplaceable king and an encyclopaedia of Yoruba history and culture.
