๐ JOIN GISTSMATE WHATSAPP CHANNELThe Lagos installation comes barely five days after the couple received prestigious chieftaincy honours from the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Abimbola Owoade.
On December 21, 2025, Seyi and Layal Tinubu were installed as the Okanlomo of Yorubaland and Yeye Okanlomo of Yorubaland respectively at a colourful ceremony held at the Alaafinโs palace in Oyo town.
The Oyo installation attracted high-profile dignitaries including Senate President Godswill Akpabio, Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Benjamin Kalu, several ministers, state governors, traditional rulers from across Nigeria and the Republic of Benin, and senior government officials.
The title โOkanlomo of Yorubalandโ translates to โthe beloved childโ or โthe one dear to the hearts of all Yoruba people,โ symbolising a custodian of Yoruba values, unity, and cultural heritage.
While conferring the title, the Alaafin described Seyi Tinubu as a young leader committed to youth empowerment, social development, and the promotion of Yoruba values.
In his acceptance remarks at the Oyo ceremony, Seyi Tinubu thanked the Alaafin and pledged to continue supporting initiatives focused on youth development, unity, and the preservation of Yoruba culture.
โI accept this title with humility and a deep sense of responsibility to serve our people and promote peace and progress across Yorubaland,โ he said.
