The association described the elevation as a significant recognition of the monarch’s leadership, wisdom and contributions to the development of Owu-Kuta, Osun State and Nigeria as a whole.
According to OOPA, the new responsibility is not only a source of pride to the people of Owu-Kuta but also reflects the monarch’s contributions to peace, unity, cultural preservation and community development.
The association expressed confidence that Oba Oyelude’s wealth of experience and commitment to the traditional institution would further strengthen the activities of the Osun State Council of Obas and Chiefs.
OOPA noted that the monarch’s influence has continued to extend beyond the traditional institution, particularly through his engagement with and support for younger generations and community development initiatives.
The association said the elevation by the Osun State Government further underscores the important role traditional rulers play in strengthening grassroots engagement, preserving cultural values and promoting community development.
“Your Royal Majesty, we are proud to celebrate this well-deserved recognition with you. We pray that Almighty God grants you greater wisdom, strength and good health to discharge the responsibilities of your new position and continue serving humanity with distinction,” the association said.
