The Aragbiji of Iragbiji, Oba Abdur-Rasheed Ayotunde Olabomi, yesterday invoked nostalgia in some of his subjects in the diaspora, as he assembled them in what could be described as a family meeting in Lagos, where they reunited, hobnobbed and celebrated achievements.
The monarch, renowned for youthful and proactive innovations, was in Lagos for commissioning of OLAN, a new medical centre established by one of his highflying subjects, Dr. Oyeleke Ajiboye.
The Osun paramount traditional ruler used the avenue of the event to assemble his subjects some of whom have never met for ages.
In the meeting with the royal father during the diaspora assemblage were Barrister Bayo Oladiipo, a Director in the Lagos State Civil Service, Mr. Fatai Oyelami, a former Public Relations Officer to Lagos State Deputy Governor, Mrs. Fausat Olaniyan (Oye4Osun), Princess Yewande Oyenike-Ajiboye from United State of America, Gade Oyetunji, Engr. Doseye Idowu, Mr. Abiodun Idowu, an ICT Consultant, and Mr. Yinka Lawal, a general contractor, among others.
In their individual brief introductory speeches, the sons and daughters of the ancient town eulogised their monarch for his humility, love, accommodation, innovation and patriotism.
According to them, Aragbiji has invoked home-coming nostalgia in them by his royal visit, friendly and humble style of rulership.
Consequently, the illustrious indigenes of Iragbiji expressed their gratitude to Aragbiji, and promised to always identify with their origin.
On Aragbiji's delegation to Lagos were a retired ASP, Chief Baameto of Iragbiji, Okunlade Ogunsona, his two Personal Assistants, Messrs Olayide Oladiti and Jimoh Olorede Hollor4GGO, and Opeyemi Openson, among others.
