The Alawe of Ikate Kingdom in Lagos State, Chief Murtala Adedoyin Elegushi, is dead.

He was reported to have died in the early hours of Tuesday in his sleep.

A statement by the Elegushi Royal family said he was 74.

The family said: Chief Muritala Elegushi will be remembered for his deep knowledge of the history of Ikate-Elegushi, Eti-Osa and Lagos State, which helped in correcting many distortions and facilitated the resolution of many disputes.
