The brief service saw the clerics led by leaders from various denominations urging the people to take heart and always remember the virtues of peace, wisdom and development that characterised the reign of the deceased monarch.
The Presiding Bishop, Maranathan Cathedral, Samuel Olumakinde, said the monarch would be remembered for creating the Office of the Chaplain to the Olubadan, among other innovations during his reign.
He noted that late Oba Adetunji was a man of peace who would not say or promise what he could give.
He said the level of development and understanding between the Christians and Muslims improved greatly under his watch.
The delegation was led by the Oyo State President of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN).
