Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo State has said the appointment of Chief Gani Adams as the 15th Aare-Ona Kakanfo is a source of pride to the Yoruba race.
Adams was appointed as the Aare-Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland by the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, on Oct. 15.
“You are very deserving of that position because you have turned and improved the image of our socio-security group. You have brought respectability to our people through your conduct and carriage.
“You are a pride to the Yoruba race, Nigeria and Africa,’’ he said.
“Yoruba land has existed for several centuries. Infact, Ibadan was formed by warriors from across the Yoruba land. Your coming here as the Aare-Ona Kakanfo is home coming.
“We assure you of our support spiritually, culturally, morally and financially,’’ he said.
