The pre-coronation programs for the installation of His Imperial Majesty, Oba Akeem Abimbola Owoade, reached new heights today with the commissioning of three projects by Honorable Akeem Adeyemi, representing Oyo federal constituency, in honor of the monarch. Specifically, the hitherto known Fatuke/Elega road has been named Oba Akeem Abimbola Owoade road. Also,the Alamo/Okediji road in Ilora and the newly installed, energized transformer at Ladigbolu area were commissioned in recognition of a week long pre -coronation programs for the foremost Oba.
The commissioned projects, facilitated by Hon. Adeyemi, demonstrate his commitment to the development of Oyo and its people.
In a historic moment, Alaafin Owoade attended his first public event after completing the Oro Ipebi rites, gracing the final match of a football competition sponsored by Hon. Akeem Adeyemi. The event drew massive crowds of ecstatic Oyo people and dignitaries from far and wide, including expatriates.
Hon. Akeem Adeyemi urged all Oyo people to rally around Kabiesi, just as they did for his forebears. He noted that 16 teams competed in the football tournament before the final match. Kabiesi Oba Akeem Abimbola Owoade called for support from all Oyo sons and daughters, assuring them that his accession to the throne is divine.
The monarch commended Hon. Akeem Adeyemi for his thoughtful leadership and prayed for his continued success. The football competition ended with D Way FC taking home ₦500,000, Spectrum FC receiving ₦300,000, and Alatede FC winning ₦200,000.”
