Ayede Ogbese Town In Unparalleled Yuletide Revelry As Late Oba Oluyede’s Widow & Children Magnanimously Fete The Kingdom’s Citizenry
Amidst dances, music and stirring, heart-felt prayers, the people of Ayede Ogbese in Akure North local government area of Ondo State, Nigeria, poured out commendations in torrents on HRH Olori Olufunmilayo Oluyede on the occasion of the 2024 Ayede Ogbese Yuletide Festivities, which was held in royal grandeur on December 23rd 2024 at the Royal Ranch, Ayede Ogbese.
The event was yet another unprecedented, magnificent occasion in commemoration of the life and times of HRM the late Alayeluwa Oba Ajibola Olaleye Oluyede, Ise Oluwa II, the Alayede of Ayede Ogbese, whose sterling policies and profound impact on the lives of the citizenry will remain evergreen in the hearts of the people of the kingdom.
In the spirit of the season, the Oba Ajibola-Oluyede royals liberally doled out mouthwatering meals, drinks, tons of palliative foodstuffs, numerous cartons of chicken, copious cash gifts, bags of bundles of exquisite fabrics, much-needed scholarships, specially branded school bags, youth empowerment/skill acquisition opportunities et al to a very well-controlled mammoth crowd of kingdom widows, orphans, the aged, disabled/infirmed etc.
Also, at the grand occasion, the Regent of Ayede Ogbese, Her Royal Highness, Dr. Olufunto Oluyede-Campbell (a United States accomplished Medical Practitioner) provided specially imported medical supplies and All-Day Community Health and Wellness Checks gratis to all and sundry.
Organized annually under the auspices of HRH Olori Olufunmilayo Ajibola-Oluyede (the town’s altruistic, globally-renowned queen) the 2024 edition of the festivities was generally adjudged the most impactful ever.
At the event, Olori Olufunmilayo Oluyede was ushered in amidst hearty cheers and deafening applauses by the populace. However, in Christ-like humility, the queen reverted all the glory to the Lord JESUS CHRIST, who according to her, is the raison d’etre for the celebrations and is her ultimate divine patron, provider, inspiration and encourager, without whom she could achieve nothing. Teary-eyed and emotional, she went on to express her love, respect and gratitude to the beloved people of the town for their unflinching loyalty and love for her late husband coupled with their overwhelming support during the final homegoing obsequies of her late husband, despite all odds.
Olori Oluyede also thanked the people for their warm embrace of her daughter, the Regent of Ayede Ogbese, assuring them that with God as her guide, she will continue to execute initiatives geared towards the enhancement of the people’s well-being, as she endeavors to implement the precious legacy established by her father, the late Alaiyeluwa Oba Ajibola Oluyede,
For the people of the ancient town of Ayede Ogbese, the future is certainly a bright and optimistic one. Undeniably, Oba Ajibola Oluyede’s revolutionary plans and purposes for the town have indeed survived him. This is evident in his well-accomplished offsprings, his genial, much-admired widow, his ever-faithful citizenry and their avid implementation of the significant developmental structures that he left behind.
