Ogunwusi, dressed in white attire, wearing beads and a white crown, acknowledged cheers from the people with his right fist raised up and with smile.
The Sultan of Sokoto Saad Abubakar’s speech was interrupted by the cheering and drumming that ushered in the new monarch.
OSINBAJO, SULTAN TINUBU ARRIVE FOR OONI’S INAUGURATIONThe Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo (SAN); National Leader of the All Progressives Congres, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar, are some of the important personalities who have arrived for the presentation of staff of office to the new Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II.

The chairman of the Osun State Traditional Council, Owa Obokun of Ijesaland, Oba Adekunle Aromolaran led virtually all traditional rulers from the state to the ceremony.
The venue is so jampaked that many invited guest were stopped from gaining entry into the makeshift canopy erected for the ceremony at the Enuwa Square. Security aides of some traditional rulers and those of the Deputy Governor of Osun State, Mrs. Titi Laoye-Tomori, encountered great difficulty before they could bulldoze the way for their principals.
