The Ekinrin Community National Association, both at home and in the diaspora, has joined voices to celebrate the 60th birthday of Olori Bridget Fehintola Idowu, Olori of the Olu Adde of Ekinrin-Adde, describing the milestone as a diamond jubilee worthy of the kingdom’s admiration and gratitude.
In a tribute released on behalf of the entire community, Hon. Duro Omonola, President of the Ekinrin Community National Association, hailed the Olori as “a jewel of inestimable value, an anchor of peace, and a shining beacon of grace.”
The tribute celebrated the Olori’s dual heritage as both a daughter of the soil and a queen by destiny. Born a princess of Ekinrin-Adde, she rose to become Olori through her marriage to the Olu Adde, a distinction the community described as a rare “double royalty” that she carries with what Omonola called matchless dignity.
According to the association, the Olori’s reign has been marked by quiet strength, wisdom, and an unwavering commitment to peace and unity within the kingdom. Her leadership and compassion, the tribute noted, have continued to inspire members of the Ekinrin community across generations and geographies.
“The Ekinrin Community is immensely proud of you—our Double Royalty,” the statement read, praising her elegance and selfless service to the people of Ekinrin-Adde.
As she marks six decades of life, community leaders extended prayers for continued good health, joy, and strength, alongside wishes for many more years of a peaceful and fruitful reign by her side as Olori.
The celebration reflects the deep affection and respect the Ekinrin-Adde people hold for their royal family, with well-wishes pouring in from community members both within Nigeria and among Ekinrin sons and daughters living abroad.
“Happy Birthday, our Olori! Long may you reign!” the association declared in closing its tribute.
