Those honoured included, Senator Biodun Olujimi, A House of Representatives member, Hon Yemi Adaramodu, a veteran journalist, Mr. Femi Ige, a retired Assistant Inspector General of Police, Mr Tunde Ogunsakin, an APC Chief, Demola Popoola, among others.

 

The monarch pleaded with Governor Oyebanji to secure the town, which shares a border with Ikeji and Owena in Osun State, to boost agriculture, where the town has a comparative advantage, to turn around the fortunes of his subjects.

 

On the peaceful selection process leading to his emergence,  after the demise of the late Oba Samuel Oyebade, Oba Adesanmi,  he said; “Let me thank the Ekiti State Government under Governor Kayode Fayemi and his deputy, Otunba Bisi Egbeyemi for ratifying my selection as the 32nd Ologotun.

 

“I now call on Governor Oyebanji to beam the searchlight of security and development on my community. We share boundaries with Owena and Ikeji-Ile in Osun State. Unfortunately, the roads linking us with these communities are in terrible conditions. The road linking us to Ipole Iloro is impassable as we speak, likewise the one to Ikogosi.’’
