Without doubt, you truly deserve the title considering the positive role you have played in uniting the Yoruba race with your music and personal influence. This historic chieftaincy title remains a symbol of Yoruba culture which everyone including the generations yet unborn will continue to identify with. It is also a task for K1 to remain steadfast in deeds and acts targeted at ensuring a more peaceful and united Yoruba race. May God give you the required wisdom, knowledge and understanding to discharge your new roles as the Mayegun of Yorubaland effectively.
