Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi welcomed singer Asake and his mum at his palace in Ile-Ife.
Sharing photos of their visit on Instagram, he wrote;
“Today fills my heart with deep joy as I welcome my son, Asake, back home to Ile-Ife. This sacred land is where he spent many of his formative years, moulded by hard work, discipline, and quiet determination. To return home after such a journey is a blessing, and I receive him with pride and open arms.
Asake’s mother has been his steadfast pillar, and I am equally delighted to welcome her back home while extending my heartfelt gratitude to her for nurturing him with love, resilience, and strength to reach this remarkable stage of life.
Significantly, I pay special tribute to Lala and the entire crew who stood faithfully by my son; your dedication reflects the true spirit of Omoluabi. I also express my sincere appreciation to Professor Toyin Ogundeji and Obafemi Awolowo University for nurturing one of the greatest musical icons of our time, a cultural ambassador who has carried Yoruba heritage onto the global stage.
Today, my son has returned home. A global star has come back to his roots. Ile-Ife receives you with pride”.
