Just In : Governor presents staff of office to 35-year-old monarch

The Governor of Ogun State, Dapo Abiodun, has presented the staff of office to the Olofin of Ado-Odo, Oba Olusola Lamidi-Osolo, on Saturday, at the Methodist School in the Ado Odo area of the state.

This came after a month of participating in Obaship rituals in ascension to the ancient throne of the Awori Kingdom.

The governor presented the staff of office through the Ogun State Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Ganiyu Hamzat.

This ceremony legitimised the recognition of the 35-year-old monarch in the state.

In a statement obtained by Sunday PUNCH from the Olofin Media Representative Team, the Oba, in his acceptance speech, thanked the governor for his appointment as the Olofin of Ado Odo Kingdom.
