Скачать или смотреть Arrivals of Emir of Kano, Omisore, Okanlomo Oodua, Others at Ooni’s Palace for Mahama’s Installation

Royal splendour and pan-Yoruba unity filled the air at the ancient Palace of the Ooni of Ife as eminent traditional rulers, political leaders, and cultural icons arrived in grand style for the historic installation of H.E. John Dramani Mahama, President of the Republic of Ghana, as the Aare Atayeto Oodua of the Source.

Among the distinguished personalities captured in this video are the Emir of Kano, former Osun State Deputy Governor Senator Iyiola Omisore, the Okanlomo Oodua, the Olu of Ikare-Ekiti, and other revered monarchs and leaders from across Nigeria and beyond. Their presence underscores the deep cultural, diplomatic, and ancestral ties binding the Yoruba nation with the wider African continent.

Set against the sacred backdrop of Ile-Ife, the cradle of Yoruba civilisation, these arrivals reflect a powerful convergence of tradition, leadership, and continental brotherhood, as the Ooni of Ife, Arole Oduduwa Olofin Adimula, continues to position the Source as a global centre for African unity, heritage, and diplomacy.

Watch the moments that defined history as royalty, statesmen, and custodians of culture converge in honour of Africa’s shared legacy.
