His Royal Majesty, Oba (Engr.) Moses Oluwafemi Agunsoye, Abikehin-Ekun II, the Elegboro of Ijebu-Ijesa in Ijesa North Local Government Area of Osun State, is a straight shooter. He is as straight and honest as their majesties can come.
The Elegboro not only shoots straight from the heart as he celebrates the remarkable life of High Chief Olayinka Fasuyi, the Asiwaju of Ijesaland, who turns 70 on October 25, he spares no superlative adjective in doing so. Call this tribute a superlative eulogy of an icon, and you would have hit the nail right on the head.
“Many loud ovations to an actualiser, a trailblazer, community mobilizer, socialite, an icon of excellence and a philanthropist of unlimited virtues,” Oba (Engr.) Moses Oluwafemi Agunsoye, Abikehin-Ekun II, begins.
”Today you have become a Septuagenarian, with a remarkable life, a life full of hopes and dreams. joy and tears. When you look back and wonder where all of the time has gone, remember that you helped shape history and be proud, because history shall be kind to you.”
