The Olu had recently initiated peace talks with Ayiri through the efforts of Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor and others. On April 14, the King met with Ayiri and then convened a meeting on Sunday to address the issue. Ayiri apologized and begged for forgiveness, which the Olu granted.
The Olu offered Ayiri his father’s title, Ayeku of Warri, but Ayiri refused it and left the palace. The Olu then installed Chief Oma Eyewuoma as the new Ologbotsere of the kingdom, thanking Ayiri for his contributions and asking him to leave the palace.
