My fellow Youths of Ijesaland, I say a very happy and prosperous New Year to you all.
I would like to thank and honour the Almighty who saw us through the year 2024 and has given us the opportunity to see another year. Each new Year is an opportunity to reflect on the past year, reposition, and move forward with the new energy and aspirations.
As we celebrate the opportunity to be alive in the year 2025, we must also acknowledge the passing away of our brothers and sisters, most especially Our royal father, Owa Aromolaran II who didnโt make it into this new year. May their souls rest in perfect peace.
Without any delay, a new year has started already, let's learn from our past mistakes, let's unite ourselves as one, the ethos of Omoluwabi must be revealed in our daily lives. Peace and unity of Ijesa must be of paramount to us all, we need each other to survive this new year.
I also use this medium to call upon everyone of us to support our newly installed royal father, the 41st Owa Obokun Adimula of Ijesaland, His Imperial Majesty, Oba Clement Adesuyi Haastrup Ajimoko III, may Olodumare grant him the enablements to take Ijesaland to greater heights, Amen.
Once again, I wish you a happy and prosperous year 2025.
E-Signed
Chief Babatunde Aguntasolo
