The Ondo state governor Oluwarotimi
Akeredolu has once again shown his humility, support and respect for the traditional institution.



The rich customs and traditions of the yoruba race in the southwest region of nigeria was once displayed by Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu during the coronation of his Imperial majesty Oba Ajibade Gbadegesin Ogunoye Ill as the Olowo of Owo.

It would be recalled that the ondo state governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu had told the Yoruba monarchs not to stand up as a sign of respect for him whenever he walks into an event. Rather; reverse should be the case, because he is a true yoruba man who has value and respect for customs and traditions of the yoruba race.



Akeredolu who spoke during the coronation of the Olowo of Owo where he was received by prominent traditional rulers, Ondo state cabinet members and business gurus said he thank the Lord, the Omolowos and all the chiefs that were involved in the selection process as this is
important for the progress of the Yorubaland.



Governor Akeredolu reiterated the commitment of his administration not to interfere in chieftaincy matters in the state, stressing that the people must make their choice themselves.



he urged the Olowo of Owo not to relent in ensuring unity and peace in Owo.



His Imperial Majesty Oba Ajibade Gbadegesin Ogunoye lll appreciated Governor Akeredolu for his style of leadership in Ondo state.

This is totally wrong. Akeredolu might feel he is under the Olowo's authority because he is an Owo indigene, but he stood there as a leader of all the people of Ondo state., including the Olowo himself.

He wouldn't go prostrating for every so-called king in Yoruba land, why would he desecrate the office of the governor like this?
