Mogaji Wole Arisekola writes to the Oba Oniru of Iruland, His Royal Majesty, Oba Abdulwasiu Omogbolahan Lawal, Abisogun II, after a brief courtesy call to his palace.
Good morning, Kabiyesi.
Words alone cannot fully express my gratitude for your kind gesture and the warm reception you gave me. It was a rare opportunity and an uncommon privilege to sit with you in your palace, Kabiyesi.
It is a memory I will cherish for the rest of my life.
Your hospitality reflected true royalty and grace, leaving a lasting impression on me.
Being in your presence reminded me of the deep cultural heritage and dignity of our people.
The wisdom you shared during our brief conversation was both inspiring and enlightening.
Your humility despite your exalted position is a lesson in leadership and nobility.
May your legacy continue to shine and your name be remembered for generations to come.
Esin Oba, ajoko pe Kabiyesi. Ase.
