HOW OSOLO DIED
The Real Cause of His Death
By Lanre Olaleye
Dateline: Osolo's Palace, Isolo, Lagos (Sunday 31st March 2024)
It was a normal day for the Osolo of Isolo, Oba Kabir Adelaja Alani Agbabiaka. The Osolo's Palace is a Mecca of some sort for Muslims and all manner of people especially during the Ramadan fasting when the down-trodden and the less privilege gather to collect food items facilitated by the monarch and the Isolo Local Council Development Area (LCDA) to break their fast.
As a normal practice, Oba Agbabiaka had Iftar (breaking of fast) with his chiefs, close friends and associates in his palace. Thereafter, he reportedly said his prayers and later rejoined his friends for the normal conversations and banters till around 11 p.m. when he was said to have retired to bed. Some of his chiefs reportedly escorted him to his inner chambers before bidding him goodbye.
Osolo's busy schedule during the day demands he should have a well-deserve night rest. Hence, one of his wives, Olori Khadijat had left a stern instruction to palace aides not to disturb the monarch from his sleep.
In what later appeared to be a journey of no return, an insider within the palace recounted the final moments of the Isolo monarch. He exclusively told The Snoop during a chat a loud scream from the Oba's inner chambers rudely shattered the peace within the palace a few hours after midnight when many were fast asleep.
"There was serious commotion in the palace as Kabiyesi was shouting and screaming at the top of his voice and muttering "My head! my head!!, my head!!!. Our source began.
"He was clutching his head even as his screams woke up many of us within the palace. We all rushed to his inner chamber to know what had happened.
There and then, we knew something bad had happened because he was still clutching his head. He was sweating profusely and looked so pale and weak.
"We were confused and dejected because he was not responding to antidotes that were administered on him to subside the headache. He was breathing heavily and caught a pitiable sight even as he continued muttering inaudibly. Then it was decided he should be taken to Newline Hospital around Aswani where his condition worsened because he had lost consciousness. After two days without improvement on his condition, the doctor advised he should be refered to LASUTH for proper intervention," revealed our source who did not want his name mentioned in print for obvious reason.
At LASUTH, the embattled monarch was said to have been given prompt attention following the directive of Gov. Babajide Olusola Sanwoolu who reportedly directed the hospital management to muster all resources to save the monarch's life.
The Osolo who until his death was the secretary of the Lagos State Obas Council was placed in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) after falling into coma.
"He was in coma for about nine days before he eventually gave up the ghost. He was not battling any terminal disease and the sickness came rather too sudden."
Findings revealed Cerebral Stroke happen when a blood clot block the flow of blood and oxygen to the brain. These blood clots typically form in area where the arteries has been narrowed or blood over time by fatty deposits.
However, the hospital verdict has not bode well with the opinion of many who were well acquainted with the late monarch. Speculations were rife that the monarch must have died through supernatural cause.
"The manner through which it happened gave credence to the fact that it was a spiritual attack. It was a known pattern by evil doers to catch their victims by surprise. It came so sudden and the perpetrators are happy now that they have achieved their aim. But one thing is certain, God will one day catch up with them," another source told our correspondent.
