They said:  “It is imperative to award the  title of  Asiwaju Omo Oodua just as the  title of Aare Ona-Kakanfo had recently been awarded.”

He said that about six eminent personalities had been shortlisted, adding that  the organisers of the programme had also received the royal endorsement of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi.

The event is scheduled to hold in Ile-Ife, Osun State, in March 2018 while Oba Ogunwusi will be the chief host.
