A Germany-based Nigerian entrepreneur and ICT consultant, Hon. Olayinka Oladimeji Segelu has congratulated His Imperial Majesty, Oba Akeem Abimbola Owoade, in his pronouncement as the new Alaafin of Oyo.
The PDP 2027 governorship aspirant in Oyo State also felicitate with the people of Oyo following the dawn of the new era in the town.
Hon. Segelu, in a statement issued on Monday, also extended his congratulatory message to the Oyo State Government following the giant stride achieved.
He urged the first class monarch to prioritize peace as he assumes the fatherly role in the ancient city of Oyo.
The Peoples Democratic Party Chieftain viewed Owoade’s emergence as “the beginning of a new chapter marked by prosperity, unity, and the preservation of our cultural heritage for the people of Oyo.”
He expressed his believe that “Oba Owoade will honour the legacy of his predecessors, particularly the late Alaafin, Oba Lamidi Atanda Adeyemi III, who demonstrated exceptional leadership throughout his reign.”
The ICT expert applauded the steadfastness exhibited by the royal family, kingmakers, and residents of Oyo, both home and abroad, during this significant selection process that spanned nearly three years.
Hon Olayinka Segelu praised Governor Seyi Makinde for fostering an environment conducive for the seamless transition into a new royal epoch.
He maintained that “Oba Owoade should please assume the role of a father to all and must unite with other contestants for the advancement of the Oyo kingdom. It is essential to foster inclusivity and unity among the Oyomesi, which must prevail under his leadership.
“The monarch should strive to embrace a collaborative approach with all kingmakers, free from favoritism or bias, to serve his people as a pillar of hope, justice, and development. His elevation to the throne of his forefathers underscores the resilience of our traditions and our collective pursuit of progress within the Yoruba communities.”
