    OBA Abimbola Owoade has been crowned the 46th Alaafin of Oyo.

    Owoade succeeds the 45th Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, who died on April 22, 2022, at the age of 83.

    The staff of office had earlier been presented to the new king by the Oyo state Governor, Seyi Makinde, in January.

    He completed the compulsory 21-day traditional rites known as Oro Ipebi last Saturday, March 29.

    The coronation event took place today (Saturday) at Oliveth Baptist High School in Oyo, where Governor Seyi Makinde led a host of dignitaries, including notable Nigerians.
