A governorship aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state, Omooba Dotun Babayemi, called for the preservation of cultural artefacts and relics of the Yoruba race.

 

Such a move, Babayemi contended, would help to secure the future of the race, especially in the area of the Yoruba language which he lamented was gradually going into extinction.

 

Felicitating with the people of Osogbo and Osun devotees in particular, Babayemi in a statement emphasised that consistent celebration of cultural festivals in Yoruba land would keep the consciousness of their historical backgrounds alive.
