The monarch said: “When I was enthroned, I made many fundamental decisions – won’t worship a deity, won’t sell my subjects’ lands and I won’t use Iwo money to invest outside. These principles to the best of my ability, have not been betrayed. Iwo is matching forward but we can still move faster. The desire for a jet speed acceleration produced the intellectuals we inaugurated today as Executives and members of the 3rd Iwo Board of Trustees.”

“I appeal for a digital approach to community service. Emergency matters demand urgent solutions. If there be any case of emergency attention, please endeavor to suspend protocol.”

Oluwo continued: “As a responsible father, I don’t think of what Iwo can do for me but what I can do for Iwo. Today, we are making another history we shall be proud of in no distance time by committing the affairs of Iwo in the hands of trusted, accountable, reliable, dependable and integrity-proven individuals.

Oba Adewale added: “In addition, I charge everyone to dedicate themselves to this service and borrow a leaf from my style. I don’t take anything from IBOT. I maintain the palace, vehicles and some boundary litigations without requesting from IBOT.”

“The platform is not meant for personal gain but, there is a way God rewards accordingly. I organize this inauguration without kobo from the purse of IBOT. I’m eager and desirous of a new Iwo. This, to me, with your complement, is an assurance that Iwo is closer to the promised land. Let’s join hands to protect Iwo interest, her border, and future.”
