During a fundraising dinner in Lagos for the inaugural carnival, His Imperial Majesty Oba Ghandi , Afolabi Olaoye, Orumogege III, the paramount ruler of Ogbomosoland, emphasised the importance of uniting the sons and daughters of Ogbomoso from across Nigeria and beyond to work towards the city’s development

He noted that the people of Ogbomoso are renowned for their entrepreneurial spirit and warrior heritage, contributing to their presence in various cities, including Gombe, Jos, and Ore in Ondo State.

“Upon my ascension as the Soun of Ogbomoso, I was amazed to discover the widespread locations of our people. This insight led me to develop a blueprint for harnessing their potential and impacting our land,” he stated.
