To show his appreciation to Ebohon for his gallantry, he was made Iyase of UFO by the Obama. He could not savour the reward of his victories as he died before assuming his title.
In about 1879 the Elites were overruned by Ibadan soldiers. Seeing the futility of their self defence, they appeal for help from Obama Adolor who had to send hundreds of soldiers to help defend the Elites.
The people of Ibadan were compelled to make peace with the Ekiti's because of Benin support.
The Ekiti's showed gratitude to the Benin by playing yearly tributes until the British invasion of 1897.
