Miss Oluwatosin Shola Shittu, winner of
the 2018 winner of the prestigious Queen Moremi Ajasoro Cultural
Pageant held December 3, 2017, in Lagos receives her car gift from
Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Babatunde Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II.
The event held at the new Ife Grand
Resort and Leisure, Ile Ife, Osun State, Sunday 28, 2018 was attended
by cultural lovers from far and near who witnessed the handover
ceremony performed by the Bashorun of Ikun Ekiti, Eniola Foyase with
others in admiration.
Oba Ogunwusi who praised the new queen
as a true cultural ambassador was well pleased that she was able to
put on brave fight through the audition, boot camp training and final
stage appearance to emerge the winner. He admonished her to utilize
the opportunity given to her to serve humanity and the institution
she is representing.
For Bashorun Eniola Fayose, Chairman of
the occasion, he was very pleased to be given the opportunity by
Kabieyesi to perform the handover ceremony while extolling his gaits
in promoting culture. “It is a rare privilege to have a man like
kabiyesi at this age and time reviving culture – a time when
internet has taken over our everyday life including our culture.
Almost everything is online except for people like kabiyesi who can
still give facts that internet will not give. The story of Queen
Moremi is refreshing and Kabiyesi has proved that our roots are
intact through his understanding of the culture which he promotes
vigorously. For the new queen, we wish her well on her new role and
the cultural ambassador of the Queen Moremi Ajasoro institution and
also believed as a true daughter of Ekiti, she will live to our
expectations.”
