Oke-Ogun Celebrate Ogombo Monarch Ascendancy

The first monarch of Ogombo, Lagos State, Oba Abiodun Muslim-Ogunbo has been congratulated by the people of Oke-Ogun in Oyo State.

The congratulatory message was made by the Oke-Ogun Development Consultative Forum (ODCF).

Oba Ogunbo was installed by the Lagos State Government recently.

The Ogombo kingdom in Eti Osa Local Government Area of Lagos State, has boundaries with popular areas like Ajah, Sangotedo, Okun Ajah, among others in Lagos, and the founders of the kingdom sojourned from Saki in the Oke-Ogun area of Oyo State to Ogombo in Lagos in the 17th century.

According to the National President (ODCF), Ahmed Raji in a statement obtained in Iseyin on Friday, said the people of Oke-Ogun were happy that the region has positively impacted the whole world with sons and daughters who have lived their lives to better humanity.

"With the emergence of Oba Abiodun Ogunbo as the King of Ogombo Kingdom, developmental strides would follow.

"We, the people of Oke-Ogun are happy that our people all over the world are sources of good and admirable news, speaking specifically of the newly-installed, first Oba of Ogombo Kingdom, Oba Abiodun Muslim-Ogunbo, whose fore-bearers migrated to Lagos from Saki in our Oke-Ogun area.

“We believe the emergence of Oba Abiodun will bring positive global attention to Ogombo Kingdom as well as Oke-Ogun region and its people progress, we also pray that the King will live long on the throne,” Raji said in the statement.

He lauded the government of Lagos State for making the installation of the first monarch of Ogombo kingdom seamless.

The support given to the ruling house will bring about further progress to the state.
