STILL RIDING ON THE CREST OF OKE BABA OKUTA @ 8
Blessed be that Saturday, October 22, 2016 when HIM, Oba Dr Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran11 invested the titles of Otun Asiwaju on the duo of Chief Olayinka and Olubisi Fasuyi.
Within a space of four years, precisely on the 26th of December, 2020 following from the Fasuyis turning stone into bread for Ijesa with the completion of a magnificent Owa Palace spear headed by the duo within a space of nine months, the global Corona virus notwithstanding, Kabiyesi, the Owa Obokun in agreement with other Obas in Ijesaland publicly elevated the couple to Asiwaju and Yeye Asiwaju of Ijesaland respectively.
What a tonic to spur other accomplishments! Today, the gear is still advancing with many more grounds to cover even as he avers that *Ijesaland is work in progress*
Let’s all applaud greatness in a man of destiny whose time is nigh to roar.
As we celebrate this kalendarium, let us remember the ubiquitous and the silent heroes of that momentous occasion.
Kabiyesi, Owa Obokun Adimula, Oba Dr Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran 11,
Chief Ayo Agbede and Otunba Olatubosun Abe, may all your souls rest in peace
—-Wale Idowu (Former Director General OSBC, Member Ijesaland Communities Development Council (ICDA
Olayinka, Omo Fasuyi, The Asiwaju of Ijesaland. Looking at the long list of what God had enabled you to achieve for Ijesaland, it seems you had been Asiwaju for decades. Yet, it is just eight years ago, that His Imperial Majesty, Oba (Dr) Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran, II, CFR, LLD, the Owa Obokun Adimula of Ijesaland, installed you as the Asiwaju of Ijesaland, and that better half of you, Olubisi, aya Fasuyi, as the Yeye Asiwaju of Ijesaland.
Since then, it has been eight
years of selflessness, eight years of sacrifices, eight years of demonstration of unconditional love for the fatherland, eight years of gallantry and indomitable spirits, indeed eight years of exemplary leadership, all culminating to give Ijesaland unprecedented phenomenal progress.
Asiwaju, I marvel at your prodigious energy. I pray for you. The whole of Ijesaland pray for you. It is well with you, and shall remain well with you.
And that precious jewel, Olubisi, Yeye Asiwaju Herelf. She has been truly wonderful. The peoples and the guiding spirits of Ijesaland, continue to pray for her for taking good care of Asiwaju. Almighty God shall always take care of her and all that belong to her. Her children shall do well. Her children shall flourish
Asiwaju and Yeye Asiwaju, once again, Congratulations on the 8th anniversary of your installation as Asiwaju and Yeye Asiwaju of Ijesaland. Almighty God will always guide and direct you. HE will always bless your efforts and multiply the fruits of your endeavours.
Please, continue with your good works. God will continue to enable and strengthen you
From me Always : Regards, Respects & Love.

Asiwaju wa. I always refer to him as ASIWAJU WA because he has since earned the title long before the Kabiyesi deemed it fit to so honor him. He has always been himself from our ĘRĘJA days. Only the DEEP can reach out to the DEEP. Do you think he just started dressing the way he dresses just now? You’re wrong he has always been like this. Dressing in DAMASK while in secondary school.
I will leave it at that.
Asiwaju Linton Yinka Fasuyi as everyone knows is a Legend and only LEGENDS are born in October which is a month of double GRACE.
Congratulations 🎉🎊🎈🍾 on your new age. Happy birthday 🎂🎁🎊🎈🎉 ASIWAJU WA and many happy returns of the day LLNP.
You will continue to be Asiwaju wa till kingdom come.
