“” Ultimately, as part of his ongoing legacy, the Paramount Ruler have made it clear that his 50th birthday celebration will revolve around positive societal contributions, instead of indulging in extravagant expenditures for personal enjoyment.
He  prioritizes investments that will uplift lives of his people, as he is determined to ensure that his milestone is marked by meaningful contributions rather than mere indulgence, thus reaffirming his role as a dedicated Monarch to his country home and its people””.

By Bode Durojaiye, the Director of Media and Publicity  to the Alaafin of Oyo.

Behind every successful man, there is a praying woman. She’s always right behind him, cheering and encouraging him to keep going when he feels like giving up. She never complains, never criticizes. She just supports, inspires and encourages.

Behind every successful man, there is a woman. She keeps him grounded when he loses focus, she helps him find his purpose when he’s lost, and she encourages him to go after his dreams even when he feels like giving up.

Behind every successful man is a great woman who has the strength and courage to back him up, support him and encourage him.

Without a great supportive wife, many men wouldn’t achieve half as much as they do.

That Woman of Valour and Candour behind the successful life of our revered Monarch, Iku Baba Yeye, the Alaafin of Oyo  and the Titan of Yorubaland  is his better half, the great Ayaba Abiwunmi Owoade.

Iku Baba Yeye, Oba Abimbola Akeem Owoade 1, remains profoundly grateful to His Creator for enabling him to turn his lofty dreams into reality.

An embodiment of generosity and selflessness, and in honour of his  50th birthday, Oba Owoade has, among other programmes line up for his worthwhile birthday,  planned a personal prayer service dedicated to himself, Royal Family, which will serve as a moment for reaffirming his commitment to a life devoted to serving God and humanity.


The Paramount Ruler’s gratitude is especially poignant, for several challenges he has overcome. Adversity has met resilience on his journey, and  he continuously witness the favour and protection of his Creator, which empowers him to thrive despite life’s many obstacles.

Moving beyond personal reflection, Oba Owoade is initiating plans for widespread communal betterment across the lengthy and breadth of Oyo metropolis, in order to enhance residents’ lives in significant ways. His commitment is immutable.

The Alaafin remains grounded in his values and commitment to his  community.

As his 50th birthday unfolds, many are gathering to propose how best to honour  the King of kings in various ways, a testament to the profound influence he has been having on their lives and the societal landscape and in less than three months on the throne.

In line with the wisdom of renowned playwright Professor Femi Osofisan, who insightfully noted that birthdays are not merely for the deceased, I truly appreciate the significance of Kabiyesi Owoade’s milestone, especially within a society where the average life expectancy is less than 50 years.

Oba Owoade stands as a beacon of humility, gratitude, and an unwavering commitment to improving the lives of others.

Ultimately, as part of his ongoing legacy, the Paramount Ruler have made it clear that his 50th birthday celebration will revolve around positive societal contributions. Instead of indulging in extravagant expenditures for personal enjoyment.

He  prioritizes investments that will uplift lives of his people, as he is determined to ensure that his milestone is marked by meaningful contributions rather than mere indulgence, thus reaffirming his role as a dedicated Monarch to his country home
and its people.
