At the event of his 70th birthday and seventh year on the throne, the Oba of Benin, His Highness Omo N’Oba N’Edo Uku Akpolokpolo Ewuare II received lavish praise from former President Muhammadu Buhari who described him as “a king among kings” and “the ultimate Oba.”

In a statement issued by his media aide, Garba Shehu on Saturday, Buhari pointed out that Oba Ewuare II “continues as a source of inspiration to the country for his remarkable tenacity in the preservation of the cherished cultural values and traditions of the Benin Kingdom”.

He then urged journalists and the recorders of modern history to focus on Oba Ewuare II for “serving as a champion of good conduct and guardian of the cherished values and traditions of his people.”

“Long Live the Oba, Long Live The Federal Republic of Nigeria,” the statement concluded.
