…Says Deputy Governor Enjoys Huge Popularity in Ikere.
The Ogoga of Ikere-Ekiti, Oba (Dr.) Samuel Adejimi Adu-Alagbado, Agirilala II, has refuted claims by a former Chairman of Ikere Local Government, Hon.

The monarch further stated that the present administration, led by Governor Biodun Oyebanji with Mrs. Afuye as Deputy Governor, has prioritized the welfare of Ikere indigenes. He highlighted several development projects already sited in the town for the benefit of its residents.
