President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday congratulated Oba Saheed Ademola Elegushi (Kusenla III) on the occasion of his 48th birthday.
The President “joins members of the Elegushi family, friends, well-wishers, and the people of Ikate kingdom in wishing Kabiyesi more years of good health on the throne and purposeful leadership to his people,” read a statement signed by Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale.
The statement is titled, ‘President Tinubu celebrates Oba Elegushi on birthday.’
Born on April 10, 1976, Oba Saheed Ademola is the 21st Elegushi of the Ikate-Elegushi Kingdom.
A descendant of the Kusenla Ruling House of Ikateland in Lagos State, he succeeded his father, the late Oba Yekini Adeniyi Elegushi, the 20th Oba Elegushi of Ikateland, who reigned from 1991 to 2009.
He was presented with the staff of office by the Lagos State Government on April 27, 2010.
Before ascending the throne, Oba Elegushi served as Personal Assistant to President Bola Tinubu when he was Lagos State Governor (1999–2007) and Senior Special Assistant to his successor, Babatunde Fashola (2007-2015).
Tinubu commended the monarch for his dedication to the welfare of his people since his coronation in 2010 and for building constructive relationships across the country that have helped to create a formidable network of support for government programmes and initiatives.
