The Senate President, Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan, was on Saturday, September 18, enrolled in the Iyin Ekiti Traditional Hall of Fame as he was conferred with the Aare Akorewolu of Iyin Kingdom by the Oluyin of Iyin, Oba Adeola Adeniyi Ajakaiye (Oyinyosaiyeuyin III).

The event was part of the activities to mark the Oluyin’s first coronation anniversary which was held at Iyin-Ekiti, Ekiti State.

In a letter of appreciation sent to the Senate President, the paramount ruler described Lawan as a blessing to Nigeria.
“Your openness, warmth and assurances of commitment to the growth and development of Iyin-Ekiti in particular and Nigeria as a whole further accentuates your well-known attributes as a great leader who seeks to smoothen the concerns of the governed.

“You are indeed, without mincing words, a blessing to our dear nation,” Oba Ajakaiye said.

He thanked the Senate President for his “valued support to the indigenes of the town who are currently serving the nation in various capacities in the government of the Federal Republic.”
