Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, has congratulated the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, on his 51st birthday, describing him as a symbol of peace, unity, and cultural pride.
In a statement issued on Friday by his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, Adeleke praised the monarch for his visionary leadership and commitment to youth empowerment, cultural preservation, and community development.
“It gives me great joy to celebrate our royal father, His Imperial Majesty, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, on his 51st birthday. Kabiyesi’s reign continues to reflect vision, courage, and compassion—hallmarks of true leadership,” the governor said.
He commended the Ooni’s efforts in promoting peace and harmony within Osun State and across Nigeria, noting his pivotal role as Chairman of the Osun State Council of Traditional Rulers.
“Kabiyesi has consistently projected the beauty of Yoruba culture on the global stage while championing unity and progress among all Nigerians,” Adeleke added.
