President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has congratulated the Elerinmo of Erinmo Ijesa Kingdom in Osun State, Oba (Dr) Michael Odunayo Ajayi, Arowotawaya II, on the occasion of his birthday, lauding his leadership and contributions to community development.
In a statement issued on Thursday by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the President praised the monarch for his exemplary leadership, wisdom, and commitment to peace and unity within Erinmo Ijesa Kingdom and beyond.
President Tinubu noted that Oba Ajayi has continued to play a pivotal role in preserving the cultural heritage and traditions of his domain, describing him as a custodian of values and a bridge-builder whose influence promotes social cohesion and grassroots development.
