The town of Ogbomoso is mourning the loss of one of its most revered traditional leaders, High Chief Tijani Abioye, who passed away on Sunday due to age-related health complications.
Until his death, Chief Abioye held the prestigious title of *Bara of Ogbomosoland*, ranking third among the six recognized kingmakers in the ancient town. Installed in the early 1980s by the late Soun of Ogbomoso, Oba Oladunni Oyewumi Ajagungbade III, Abioye played a key role in traditional governance and community affairs.
“He was not just a senior kingmaker; he also led the community’s farming sector and was deeply respected,” a family source told the *DAILY POST*. His passing signifies the end of an era in Ogbomoso’s traditional leadership and leaves a notable void in the town’s council of kingmakers.
High Chief Abioye’s legacy as a custodian of tradition and advocate for agricultural development will be long remembered.
