The Adefaka Royal Family of Akure South Local Government Area, Ondo State, warmly congratulates its revered royal father, Oba (Dr.) Edward Kolawole Adejoyegbe Adewole, Osalade II, the Osolo of Isolo Kingdom, on the joyous occasion of his 7th coronation anniversary.
The Adefaka Royal Family, paternally a branch of the Abibiri Ruling House of Isolo Kingdom and maternally connected to the Ojijigogun Ruling House of Akure Kingdom, describes the seven-year reign of Oba Adewole as a period marked by peace, development, and renewed hope for the people of Isolo autonomous community in Ondo State.
In a statement jointly signed by the Chairman of the Adefaka Royal Family, Prince Babatunde Saliu Abiodun Adefaka, and the Secretary/Public Relations Officer, Prince Bashir Olorunkemi Adefaka, the family commended the Osolo for his visionary leadership and tireless efforts to uplift his people.
“Our royal father, we salute you on this remarkable day that signifies your enduring commitment to our heritage and people. Before his passing, our father, Alhaji Prince Kasumu Yesufu Daniel Adefaka, consistently reminded us of your emergence as the Osolo of Isolo Kingdom and urged us to honour you accordingly.
Since his transition on January 4, 2025, you have filled that void with your warmth, humility, and unifying spirit. We love you deeply, cherish your fatherly presence, and proudly celebrate you as a monarch whose heart radiates love and whose reign inspires pride. We wholeheartedly congratulate you on your 7th anniversary on the throne of your forebears.”
The family further expressed gratitude to the Governor of Ondo State, His Excellency Dr. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, for his unwavering support for peace across all kingdoms in the state, including Akure South Local Government.
They also paid tribute to the late Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, CON, whose legacy of peace and security laid the foundation for the progress being enjoyed today under Governor Aiyedatiwa.
“May the family of our late governor continue to thrive and never fade from memory. His impact on the state remains indelible.”
The Adefaka Royal Family prayed for the continued reign and long life of Oba Edward Kolawole Adejoyegbe Adewole, Osalade II, as he leads the Isolo Kingdom with wisdom and grace.
