Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, was on Friday, December 26, installed as Okanlomo of Eyo Oba Alakete Pupa at the ongoing Eyo festival in Lagos Island.
The installation comes five days after he was installed as the Okanlomo of Yorubaland by the Alaafin Of Oyo, Oba Abimbola Owoade, an event that was graced by dignitaries from all walks of life on Sunday, December 21.
