EXCERPTS:
How do you feel being 3years on the throne?
First, I give God the glory over my life, my family and my kingdom as a whole. I feel so happy. This is a time of joy because it has not been an easy journey from my days as Baale to my promotion as king. We couldn’t celebrate the 1st and 2nd year because of some tussles.
Over the years,among us that were coronated, five had died, so I give God the glory for keeping me and for his undying love over me and Aiyetoro-Budo kingdom.
What are the challenges you faced over the years?
God has been faithful to me. When you have the support of your people,you’re loved by your own people, honestly I’ll say there are no challenges so to say. The challenges around here are the normal challenges that every community face, but talking about natural challenges I’ll say I’m one of the luckiest kings around. I enjoy the support of my people so well,all the communities around me cooperate with me, my chiefs and all the inhabitants of the town. Everyone wants to be associated with me, I’ll say it’s God grace.
