The ancient town of Ìṣẹ-Ekiti, Ekiti State, is set to commemorate the 25th coronation anniversary of its revered traditional ruler, His Royal Majesty, Oba Adetunji Ayodele David Ajayi (PhD, MON, JP.), the Arinjale of Ìṣẹ-Ekiti.
The landmark anniversary celebrates a quarter of a century of traditional leadership, cultural preservation, community service and commitment to the peace and progress of Ìṣẹ-Ekiti.
Since ascending the throne, Oba Adetunji Ayodele David Ajayi has remained a symbol of unity and stability, providing royal guidance and moral leadership while working with community stakeholders, traditional institutions, religious leaders, indigenes and development partners to advance the interests of the town.
His reign has reflected a thoughtful balance between the preservation of the customs and cultural identity of Ìṣẹ-Ekiti and the need to embrace education, development, peaceful coexistence and opportunities for younger generations.
Over the past 25 years, the Arinjale has continued to promote harmony among the people, strengthen the dignity of the traditional institution and encourage sons and daughters of Ìṣẹ-Ekiti, both at home and in the diaspora, to contribute meaningfully to the growth of their ancestral community.
