Describing the revered monarch as a “king among kings,” the governor emphasized that the visit symbolized a strong commitment to cultural harmony and collaboration between Lagos and Edo State.

Expressing his delight, Governor Sanwo-Olu took to his social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), to share a statement titled ‘Oba ghato kpere ise.’

The governor stated, “Honoured to host His Royal Majesty, Oba N’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo Ewuare II of Benin, a king among kings this beautiful Sunday at Lagos House, Marina.

“The visit by The Oba of Benin reaffirms our commitment to cultural harmony and collaboration between Lagos and Edo. Grateful for the opportunity to strengthen bonds and celebrate our shared heritage.

“As part of the activities to welcome and honour His Royal Majesty, Oba N’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo Ewuare II of Benin, I took him on a tour of the J Randle Center for Arts & Culture showcasing the rich Yoruba heritage.”

“The cultural centre has an outdoor theatre, public square, space for learning programmes, art installations, live music events, a permanent exhibition, library, training and conference rooms, and a concession block for refreshment lounges, bleacher stand, lawn area, and a world-class swimming pool.
