November 28, (THEWILL) – Africa’s most famous twins in tourism, Ambassadors Taiwo and Kehinde Oguntoye, have been appointed as Ambassadors of Aje Oodua by the newly installed Iyalaje Oodua, Princess Toyin Kolade.
This was made known by the Iyalaje Oodua at the Adeline Hall, Lead City University, Ibadan over the weekend during the wedding ceremony of Governor Fayemi’s aide, Amb. Wale Ojo-Lanre. Iyalaje Oodua said the Oguntoye twins will make her team and entourage while traversing the world in promoting Yoruba culture and tradition.
Princess Kolade, who was recently installed Iyalaje Oodua by His Imperial Majesty, the Ooni of Ife, Oba Babatunde Adeyeye Ogunwusi, said the Oguntoye twins are unique in their style and the duo represent the cultural values of the Yorubas.
“The Oguntoye twin brothers will be joining my entourage in the world tour that will commence in a few months,” Iyalaje Oodua declared. The appointment, which was facilitated by Amb. Ojo-Lanre was applauded by Comrade Moses Olafare, the Director of Media & Public Affairs to the Ooni of Ife.
In their joint acceptance, the twins, Oguntoye Taiwo and Kehinde said they have received several awards and appointments but this is special to them as it’s coming from the cradle of the Yoruba race. They appreciated Princess Kolade, the Iyalaje Oodua, for the kind gesture.
Oguntoye Taiwo and Kehinde are the first twins to be celebrated by the world busiest international airport, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, USA. They are also the initiators of the World Twins Festival. Oguntoye twins are also the first twins from Africa to be honoured by the Chinese Government in Mojiang.
