To God be the glory great things he has done.
Hearty congratulations to the entire House of Oduduwa and Olori Silekunola who today birthed a Prince to the Royal throne of Oduduwa.
Mother and child are doing well to the glory of God Almighty.
Today, I welcomed our prince Tadenikowo Adesoji Aderemi Eri-Ifeoluwasimi and the mother to the palace of Ile Oodua.
The almighty will exalt him and divinely make him the best.
Today, we come gather to commemorate and reflect on another watershed moment in the development of our nation, a monument to our shared strength, cooperation, and steadfast determination.
Today, our nation is strengthened and enriched by the countless contributions of our Muslim citizens, and we value our ties that foster peace, togetherness, diversity, and tolerance.
To God be the glory great things he has done. Hearty congratulations to the entire House of Oduduwa and Olori Tobiloba, who today birthed a Prince and Princess to the Royal throne of Oduduwa.
Mother and children are doing well to the glory of God Almighty.

My eighth Olojo on the throne of my fathers was a unique and humbling experience. Olodumare in his infinite mercies granted grace and favour to me to adorn the oldest crown in the world.
This movements demands better on your behalf, and is aimed at pushing the government to do better for you and elevate your standard of living. Do not persecute your advocates.
God bless Nigerian youths and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

I got tagged on Twitter a few months back from a young man who made a brilliant pencil drawing of myself, in my appreciation for his art I invited him to my palace.
In the grandeur of this moment, it fills me with immense pride to witness Mr President, in such commendable proximity today, radiating an aura of benevolence and unwavering dedication to the prosperity of Nigeria.
On this joyous occasion of Easter, may the light of the season shine brightly upon you and your loved ones, illuminating your path with hope, joy, and peace.
All thanks to Olodumare the Almighty for the precious gifts of life bestowed unto me.
It is my special prayer to all descendants of Oduduwa that Olodumare will grant us all immeasurable blessings from above.

A great honour for me to be in the midst of young talented minds like Adedimeji Lateef and many others in which I have dedicated this throne to. Thier successes are my successes and I will do anything humanly possible to keep lifting them all up.
We are building on a castle that has already collapsed. The young people of our nation who account for over 70% of our populations are hungry and angry.
I have been informed of many innocent souls that were arrested and currently been detained, be rest assured that I am pursuing the matter and they will be set free.
Drawing inspiration from Oduduwa's ancient knowledge of cloth weaving and fashion machine fabrications, the iconic skills and ingenuities dispensed by Oduduwa have become an ocean of human interaction and technological development for the global fashion industry.
It was a noble and extraordinary development for me to welcome His Excellency, Governor Ademola Adeleke, Executive Governor of Osun, and other top dignitaries at the unveiling ceremony of the OJAJAMORE in Osogbo as part of my mission to strengthen Nigeria's socio-economic growth.
It was an invaluable moment for me to listen patiently to Prof. Mrs. Nenna Oti, who remarkably epitomises the voice and intellectual reasoning that are embedded in an African woman.
With all glory to the most high for bringing me thus far on the throne of my forebears. I was in attendance @ the root church of my family, St Paul’s Anglican Church, Ayegbaju, Ile-Ife today to give thanks to the almighty & round up activities celebrating my 5 years on the throne
The world has witnessed Nigeria's steadfast dedication to sustaining democratic ideals as a result of the inauguration of the Federal Republic of Nigeria's 16th president.
The season of Easter is one of the most important moments for a lot of our brothers and sisters around the globe. It's a season of deep spiritual reverence.
To the men and women of the Nigerian police force, be assured that this movement is also for you, we know you are humans also and your reality is as a result of your environment.
Ọló̩jó̩ ìbí, Adéwámiwá ọmọ Ọò̩nirìṣà, olóríire ọmọ, ẹlé̩yinjú àánú, mo dúpé̩ l'ọ́wó̩ Olódùmarè fún ìgbésí ayé ẹ, láti ọjọ́ tí o ti dé ayé, títí di àkókò yí.
I join all faithful in this joyous season of celebration. As a time of coming together and celebrating love and unity whilst renewing year long promises to each other.
My seclusion this year was none like I have ever experienced in my eight years on the throne of my fathers.
I strongly advise you not to take the prayers of today lightly. We need to start taking our destinies into our own hands.
I assure you that this is the beginning of greater things to come in Nigeria. I implore you to demand for more, but plead with you to do so in a peaceful manner, as anything outside of that will cause unnecessary havoc for all.
The sad event that happened yesterday at the Lekki Toll gate in Lagos where armed soldiers were alleged to have killed unarmed young protesters is highly disheartening, regrettable and condemnable.
As we gather in unity, let us embody the spirit of Eid, demonstrating unwavering devotion to Olodumare.
Let us extend compassion to our neighbors and the less fortunate, mirroring the support bestowed upon us by Olodumare during our fasting.
A privilege I do not take for granted. To carry the oldest sacred Aare crown bestowed upon me by my ancestors and make atonement for my people.
Through the authority of my ancestors, I speak blessings of life to your brokenness and into our nation.

Today, 14th March 2023, marks another landmark in global history as I redeemed my pledge in bringing smiles into the faces of our greater tomorrow; the youths.
Yesterday, I paid an officially courtesy visit to the Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals in Lagos where I was accorded the comprehensive on the spot assessment of the magnitude of this exceptional project.

@SamleeOluwaseun
who is just about to graduate from secondary school has been adopted by me, his fees till his tertiary education will be taken care of by me, and he will be gainfully employed right here in my palace.
Imagine a young female for that matter, all her belongings completely searched all because she was with a laptop on an official assignment from her office in lagos. I can only imagine the countless ones that have lost their lives from such ordeals, may their souls rest in peace.

It was a huge obligation to convene a Yoruba Security Summit alongside the Southwest traditional institutions, which welcomed in partnership the six state governments and other important stakeholders.
On her way to the airport, she was stopped and terribly ransacked and surrounded by fully armed plain clothes policemen in a bus, detained for close to 30mins of thorough questioning.
A divine proclamation came out to the world last year June 6th 2019, during the World Ifa Festival - Otura Meji. We foretold about the impending rage of this invisible pandemic war, but few heard us.
Please note that Efod/ Urim and Thurim are in the holy Books.
It was an endless honour for me to formally welcome His Majesty, Ogiame Atuwase III, Olu of Warri, and his royal entourage to the eternal throne of Odùduwà.
In accordance with the traditional rites lasting for 21 days with today marking the 8th day, and in keeping to my promise of naming our first prince after my predecessor the 49th Ooni of Ife in the 3rd dynasty of Ife.
Today, I honour and pay obeisance to Olokun, the deity of wealth and salt alongside millions of Oduduwa descendants as we celebrate the Olokun festival.
Our prince is hereby named “Tadenikawo, Adesoji, Aderemi, Eri-Ifeoluwasimi, Adeiwa, Inioluwa, Ademide, Adegbite, Diekoloreoluwa Ogunwusi Ojaja II.
Pray to God to guide and keep him in fulfillment of his destiny.
In my unwavering commitment to resetting and upholding the spirituality of our culture and it's modern values, we celebrated the deity called Osara the goddess of the lagoon also known as Osa.
While in seclusion I encourage all to stay prayerful whilst I remain in connection with my ancestors.
The world is going through a “new normal” & the process of resetting is underway. As the progenitor of Oduduwa it is time to reconsecrate humanity with prayers & supplication.
Over the past four years of my ascension to the Throne of my forbearers, one of my core Royal mission has been to reconstruct the worldview of our young populations
March 21, 2023 marks a new era for African people in Brazil particularly the Yoruba people all over the world. People who walk hand in hand in favor of the African population, in the fight against racial discrimination.
In January of this year, legislation authorising the commemoration of the African-Brazilian religion and the Terreiro people. This legislation, presided over by President Lula, brings a unifying spirit to the people and revolutionises the grandeur embedded in Brazil’s diversity.
Nigeria's formation was, in a broad sense, a compelling opportunity to harness the blessings of our diversity while cherishing the uniqueness of our unity.
Today, on International Women's Day, our ambition must be to renew our pledge of building a global society in which women are given equal honour and the resources they need to achieve their fullest potentials.
I thank Eledumare for giving me the grace to adorn the crown of Oduduwa the progenitor. I know for certain that all prayers have been answered.

It's a shame. The OONI prescribed Herbal Medicine for Nigerians, they didn’t believe him, told him he is not a doctor of what he inherited from his ancestors. Now another country took it up and also upgraded it - Madagascar.
I look forward to continuing in the mission of discovering beautiful souls and Samuels out there who need help and I will continue to help and support all that I can.
The staff: “Ape” or “Ato” signifying longevity and prosperity. An inheritance of Oduduwa handed over to Oranmiyan and all children of Oduduwa.
Till date all African descendants and Kings of African descent have strong spiritual links to this object.

In another milestone of creating the crest of meaning, celebrating, and upholding the thousands years of sacred culture and heritage passed down to us by our Ancestors
This year's Àyángalú festival unfolds the beauty of Yoruba culture not just as a representation of the people but as a rich historical and extensive knowledge that serves as the cornerstone of our existence.
The 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year, 5th Year and still counting, It truly is only the King of kings thus far. I feel very fulfilled to always be in the midst of the image of my ancestors - Ooni Oduduwa, Ooni Ogbogbodirin, Ooni Wumonije and the others.
It is a priceless honour for me to welcome
@akin_adesina
The President of the African Development Bank, a proud and true son of Oduduwa, an inestimable asset, a shining light of truth, patriotic, and a selfless hero.
My sincere thanks to all who wished me happiness yesterday; as you have remembered me, Olodumare will remember you and grant you your desires.

Anchoring the mantle of the Olojo Festival is the ideal fit for mending our nation's brokenness. When we turn on the news, read the newspaper, or look at our social media feeds, we see brokenness. We are a broken people in a broken country.
I throughly enjoyed retreating to the Ikogosi Warm Springs Resort and Conference Centre in Ekiti State—during the holidays. One of my sons,Niyi John Olajide, Chairman of Glocient Hospitality, has metamorphosed this resort into a therapeutic haven.
Yorùbá custom and tradition have a long history of celebrating children with transcendent supremacy and diverse positive gifts. They are divinely created as Elédùmarè's offspring, and are revered as honour and wealth bringers with a variety of attributes to advance humanity.
If there's one thing I've learned from our forefathers, it's that our brokenness as a nation doesn't faze the young people. They are not deterred by cracks, difficult times, or incredible challenges.
Yam was discovered by Òrúnmìlà in the first dynasty of Ilè-Ifè, the cradle of the Yorùbá race, when he was a king, according to history as bequeathed to us by our ancestors. He was regarded as "Oba Je Isu, Je Epo" (The King that eats yam and palm oil).
Permit your mind to do break barriers and YOU will. Before I was bestowed the honour of ascending the throne of my forebears, I enjoyed pushing the limits of my imagination and turning impossibilities into realities.
Standing on my promise in dedicating my throne to the youths of Africa, on the 29th of May, I’d be celebrating 100 exceptional Nigerians across 5 different unique fields.
Earlier this week we celebrated the spirit of wealth and market profitability (Ajé), in which we recognized the beginning of the first market (Oja Ife). _
The second largest festival in Ife and all of Yoruba land, with direct connection to the survival of all humanity.

resilient spirit, who exemplified the toughness but special grace that our women possess.
Emerging from seclusion and fasting in prayers for 7 days for the Oduduwa People, Nigeria and the world; to continue in unity and peaceful coexistence. I pray that all your heart desires will come to pass today.
