The event attracted prominent traditional rulers from all nook and crannies who came to celebrate the new entrance into the fold of royal fathers in the country. The politicians were not left out as three governors from the southwest joined the host Governor Rauf Aregbesola for the historic event that last took place 35-years ago when the new Ooni was only five years old .
The royal fathers that were physically present were the Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’adu Abubakar, Obong of Calabar, Edidem Ekpo Okon Abasi-Otu V, Dein of Agbor Benjamin Ikechuku Keagborekuzi I, representative from Edo, Delta, and many prominent traditional rulers from the southwest.
