President Muhammadu
Buhari has urged the Aare Ona Kakanfo-designate, Otunba Gani Adams, to use the
office into which he is about to step in for national unity of the country,
reports ITRealms.
Adams, ITRealms recalls
would will be installed on January 13, 2018 as the 15th Aare Ona Kakanfo of
Yorubaland by the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi 111, at Durbar Stadium,
Oyo town, Oyo State.
The admonition of the
President to Otunba Adams, the Founder of the Oodua Progressive Union, which is
spread across 79 countries, was contained in a statement by presidential
spokesman, Femi Adesina.
Adesina said Buhari
warmly congratulates Adams, the National Coordinator of the Oodua Peoples
Congress, on his investiture as the 15th Aare Ona Kakanfo on Saturday.
He then charged the new
Generalissimo of Yorubaland to use the position to pursue worthy goals of
security, peace and national unity.
So also did the
President commend Oba Adeyemi on the appointment of a new Aare Ona Kakanfo, who,
he said, will assist him in the arduous task of leading the illustrious Yoruba
people.
President Buhari urged
the new Aare Ona Kakanfo “to bring quintessential courage, wisdom and
astuteness to bear on his new office, for a more secured life for the weak,
vulnerable and voiceless in the country”.
President Buhari prayed
that the almighty God will grant the Aare Ona Kakanfo a favourable reign.
