February 2, 2016, His Majesty, Oba Kabiru Shotobi, who flew in the previous night from his two week trip to the USA to receive a prestigious international award marked his birthday, keeping the low profile mood of the nation. Kabiyesi and the royal family marked the birthday with only prayers and no loud festivities.
Over seventy (70) Imams and Muslims clerics were at the kabiyesi private palace to offer prayers. Also present were members of his advisory council.
How old is the monarch? 50, 55, 59, 60, 61, 62? Ask the royal father himself.
Oriwu Sun was there to capture these shots, some of them romantic; some solemn, some hilarious. Enjoy them.
Among these shots is the birthday cake, specially royal in outlook.
