The throne of Akarigbo has long been a representation of enterprise and integrity, therefore, the new Akarigbo must combine his discipline as an accomplished accountant and solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, to rally the people of Remo in unity and for the development of the land.

“We are confident that your attributes will benefit Remoland. You also have a task of galvanizing your subjects towards the development of your domain, and ensure your reign marks the coming together of Remo sons and daughters for the purpose of developing Remo”. Be a champion of peaceful co-existence.
