During the colourful event witnessed by dignitaries from across the country, Oba Monsuro described Paseda as a loving person and an uncommon philanthropist, who has contributed to the development of Omu and its environs.

An elated Otunba Paseda thanked the Oba and the entire people of Omu, in and out of Nigeria, adding that he accepted the title because it is a family title and a call to serve. “It will motivate me more to assist the people and the community at large,” he added.
