Congratulatory Message from Hon. Dare Adeleke, Special Adviser to the Governor of Oyo State on Federal Constituency Matters, to His Royal Majesty, Oba Akinloye Olalere Owolabi Olakulehin, the Olubadan of Ibadanland
Your Royal Majesty,
It is with immense joy and deep reverence that I, Hon. Dare Adeleke, on behalf of myself, my family, and the good people of Oyo State, extend warm congratulations to you, Kabiyesi, Oba Akinloye Olalere Owolabi Olakulehin, on the dual celebration of your 90th birthday and the first anniversary of your ascension to the throne as the 43rd Olubadan of Ibadanland.
This remarkable milestone is a testament not only to God’s grace upon your life but also to your strength, wisdom, and unwavering dedication to the well-being and progress of Ibadanland. Your Majesty’s life, which spans nine glorious decades, is one steeped in honour, integrity, and distinguished service to our land. Having climbed every rung of the revered traditional ladder with humility and grace, your eventual coronation on July 12, 2024, at the historic Mapo Hall, was not only well-deserved but widely celebrated across Yorubaland.
Over the past year, your reign has brought renewed hope, peace, and unity to Ibadanland. You have led with the calm dignity of a seasoned statesman and the compassionate heart of a father. Indeed, Ibadan is blessed to have a monarch of your wisdom and fortitude at this point in its history.
As you mark this extraordinary double celebration, I pray that the Almighty continues to grant you sound health, divine wisdom, and many more years of purposeful reign.
Long live the Olubadan of Ibadanland!
Signed:
Hon. Dare Adeleke
Special Adviser to the Governor of Oyo State on Federal Constituency Matters
