The Owa–Obokun of Ijesaland, His Royal Majesty, Oba Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran, described the Ooni of Ife, His Imperial Majesty, Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, as an uncommonly revered monarch who should be held in high esteem by true sons and daughters of Yoruba extraction.
The Owa who came with a large retinue of monarchs from Ijesaland, chiefs and prominent Ijesa sons and daughters said, “I am so happy to pay the Oonirisa a visit for the first time since he mounted this sacred throne of our father Oduduwa”
“I see Your Majesty as God’s chosen for this generation because your programme of ‘peace and unity” that you preach around the world is what is needed at this time in Yorubaland.”
He further explained that he had visited the Ooni to personally invite him to his forthcoming 80th birthday ceremony holding later in the month of October 2017 at Ilesa.
