Akinlesi, informed the monarch that by his appointment as the Onilemomu, he has become the royal custodian of the culture and tradition of the community and as such, he should endeavour to preserve the culture and revered his sacred status, adding that his loyalty to his ancestral home under the leadership of kabiyesi Alayeluwa, Oba Adedotun Gbadebo, must be unflinching.
