Ayede-Ogbese King Passes On

His Royal Majesty, Oba Peter Adetunmbi Iseoluwa Oluyede IV, has joined his ancestors. He passed on peacefully, on Tuesday, July 13, in his home.

A renowned Professor of Law, former member of the Code of Conduct Tribunal, accomplished author of many law books on Nigerian and East African Law, Oba Oluyede ascended the throne in November 2010 upon his retirement from public service.

Oba Peter Oluyede was one of the only three Nigerians, indeed Africans, who have obtained LL.D degree by examination from British universities. The other two are the late Professor T.O. Elias and Professor B.O. Nwabueze.

His reign brought a new standard of leadership to Ayede-Ogbese, a burgeoning commercial community between Akure and Owo.
