Olugbon of Orile-Igbon Oba Francis Alao, son-in-law of the founder of Doyin Group of Companies Samuel Adedoyin, has lost his mum Deaconess Margaret Alao.
Oba Alao is married to Olori Sola Adedoyin-Alao.
In a statement, the monarch announced that his 81-year-old mum died in the early hours of Friday after a brief illness.
Reflecting on her life, Oba Alao, second child of the deceased, described her as a devoted Christian who dedicated her active years to ministry alongside her late husband, Pastor Amos Alao.
He said the couple served as priests with the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) until Pastor Alao’s passing over 12 years ago.
The monarch noted that his parents pastored churches in various cities and communities, including Akure, Osogbo and Ogbomoso.
Praying for the peaceful repose of his mother’s soul, the monarch added that burial arrangements will be announced in due course.
