The Aladodo Isinkan Community was awash with colour, music, and shared joy as residents and guests gathered to celebrate the 2025 End-of-Year Anniversary, a moment that blended funfair with unity and deep communal pride.
A lively DJ set the mood, drawing people from within and beyond the community to join in the celebration.
The event opened with special prayers offered for the Aladodo Community, the entire Isinkan Kingdom, Akure South Local Government Area, Ondo State, and Nigeria, invoking peace, progress, and continued divine protection over the land and its people.
In his goodwill message, the Olu of Aladodo Isinkan Community, His Highness, Olu Ayodeji Fatoki, expressed heartfelt gratitude to God for His mercy, provision, and unfailing faithfulness.
He also appreciated His Royal Majesty, Oba (Barrister) Oluwagbemiga Olofin-Adimula Ojo (Arulewolasi III) , for the confidence reposed in him through his installation as the traditional ruler of Aladodo Isinkan, describing the role as a sacred responsibility tied to the rich ancestral heritage of Isinkan.
Chief Olusanya Fatoki, the Asuda of Isinkan Kingdom, also commended the sons and daughters of Aladodo for their steadfast support and commitment to truth.
He reminded the community that truth remains constant and encouraged everyone to stay united, prayerful, and focused on collective progress.
One of the high points of the celebration was the presentation of the Most Outstanding Traditional Ruler of the Year Award to His Highness, Olu Ayodeji Fatoki, in recognition of his exemplary leadership, youth-centred initiatives, and visible contributions to community development.
The award was presented by the Aladodo Youth Forum, led by its Youth Leader, Abdulazeez Salaudeen Ozigi.
The Youth Forum further added sparkle to the occasion by honouring other notable personalities, including the General Secretary of the community, Prince Olugbenga Falade, and Chief Abisola Fatoki, the Eye Lobinrin of Aladodo Isinkan Community, for their dedication, support, and active roles in advancing community growth.
The 2025 Anniversary celebration ended on a joyful and memorable note, reinforcing bonds of unity and renewing the community’s shared commitment to peace, progress, and sustainable development.
