The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi, has marked 11 years since he was announced and installed as the paramount ruler of Iwoland in Osun State.
He shared the milestone on his social media page on Monday, thanking God for the chance to serve his people.
He described the past 11 years as a period full of big moments and wins.
He said the hard times he has faced have made him more determined to serve humanity.
He also said he is fully committed to dedicating his throne to God.
Akanbi, also known as Telu I, became the Oluwo in November 2015, taking over from Oba Asiru Olatunbosun Tadese.
He is the 16th monarch of Iwo, a historic Yoruba kingdom.
He celebrated his 10th anniversary on the throne in November 2025, when dignitaries, traditional rulers and other prominent Nigerians joined in the celebration.
