In a solemn display of tradition, unity, and cultural continuity, members of the Eyo Arms yesterday paid a courtesy visit to the Ogboni Iduntafa Palace to mourn the passing of the revered Kabiru Adeshina Akamu Oshodi, the Olori Eyo Laba Alakete Pupa of Lagos.
The visit, in line with the longstanding customs and traditions of the iconic Eyo institution, served as a profound expression of respect, solidarity, and support to the bereaved family and the Ogboni Iduntafa Chieftaincy during this period of mourning.
It further strengthened the historic bond between the Eyo group and the palace, highlighting their shared dedication to preserving Lagos State’s rich cultural heritage.
A Legacy of Service
The late Kabiru Adeshina Akamu Oshodi was a dedicated custodian of Eyo traditions. His contributions to the institution and the promotion of Yoruba culture in Lagos will be remembered for generations to come.
The Yoruba Times joins the people of Lagos and the broader Yoruba nation in mourning this significant loss.
May the soul of Kabiru Adeshina Akamu Oshodi rest in perfect peace, and may his exemplary legacy continue to inspire future generations in the preservation of our cherished traditions.
