My roots are deeply connected to the ancient town of Otan-Ayegbaju in present-day Boluwaduro Local Government, Osun State, Nigeria.
Traditionally remembered as the 16th child of Oduduwa and the founding ancestor associated with Otan-Ayegbaju.
Read the Full Heritage Story
According to the traditional history of Otan-Ayegbaju, Olasooye Otinsokun Osiloye was the 16th child of Oduduwa who migrated from Ile-Ife and became the founding ancestor associated with the establishment of Otan-Ayegbaju.
I am a proud descendant of the Otinsokun Royal Dynasty and carry this heritage with honour, humility and responsibility.
I trace my lineage to Owa Otinsokun Ribihun I, who reigned from 1881 to 1906, and to my great forebear His Royal Majesty Oba Bolarinwa Bamigbade Adeni Olagunju MBE, Ribihun II, the 19th Owa of Ancient Otan-Ayegbaju, who reigned from 1925 to 1962.
This heritage is more than a name. It represents courage, wisdom, service, leadership and an enduring responsibility to the people.

is a trust.

At BCOS, I learned the true essence of broadcasting: integrity, timeliness, professionalism and the sacred duty to inform, educate and entertain.
The newsroom, the studio and the field taught me that the microphone is not simply a tool. It is a trust.
