Member of the Federal House of Representatives who represents Ondo East/West Federal Constituency, Hon. (Dr.) Abiola Peter Makinde, has been described as a sterling citizen who embodies the rare virtues of the Èkínmògúns.

He was so portrayed by the Member representing Okitipupa Constituency I at Ondo State House of Assembly and Chairman, House Committee on Tertiary Institutions, Honourable Chris Ayebusiwa, who was reacting to Makinde’s conferment with the title ‘Atunluṣe of Ondo Kingdom’.

According to Hon Ayebusiwa, “Dr Abiola Makinde is a rare breed who embodies the rare virtues of the Èkínmògúns. That he is being honoured by Oba Osemawe is only a frontal affirmation of our rating of his person as an incredible example of leadership.

“Like a gold fish, Makinde is a beautiful brand; very well loved by his people. His commitment to building a new Ondo Kingdom is not in the realm of question. He is, indeed, the ideal Atunluṣe. As friends and enthusiasts, we congratulate him so heartily and wish him steady renewal of strength.”
