The traditional rites for the ascension to the sacred throne of the Elemure of Emure-Ekiti have been duly and successfully performed, marking the formal installation of His Royal Majesty, Oba James Babatunde Ajiboye, as the new custodian of the revered stool of Emure Kingdom.
This historic and spiritual process, deeply rooted in the rich cultural heritage of Emure-Ekiti, affirms Oba Ajiboye’s rightful place as the traditional ruler of the ancient town.
Widely praised for his humility, wisdom, and unwavering commitment to the progress of his people, His Royal Majesty has been described as a visionary leader and a father to all — one whose reign is anticipated with hope and high expectations.
As he takes on the sacred responsibility of leadership, it is believed that he will wear the crown with honour and dignity, uphold truth in the dispensation of justice, and bring lasting peace, unity, and prosperity to the kingdom.
Oba James Babatunde Ajiboye ascends the throne at a time when Emure-Ekiti looks to the future with renewed purpose, and his reign is already being seen as a beacon of growth, cultural pride, and communal harmony.
