“Princess Kolade is a cool-headed cultured descendant of Oduduwa who established herself from the ordinary status of a petty trader on the streets of Ilesa to a celebrated international entrepreneur today.
“Among other virtues, Princess Kolade’s nature of assisting the poor, disabled and other vulnerable members of our society through giving is iconic and worth celebrating for others to emulate.
“In the house of Oduduwa, she is a special daughter who has an unequalled respect for the traditional institution, festivals and the prestigious yoruba culture in general. these are the basis upon her selection and forthcoming installation as Iyalaje of the entire Oduduwa race worldwide.
