By Dayo Badmus
HRM, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, the Paramount Ruler of Lagos Kingdom has returned to his Iga Idunganran Royal Palace on Friday.
The Monarch returned two months after he escaped from an attack on his palace by miscreants.
He had since vacated the palace when hoodlums who had hijacked the peaceful #EndSARS protest in Lagos invaded it on October 21 last year and bolted with his Crown and Staff of office.
Some soldiers were said to have ferried him into safety and he had been absent from the palace ever since.
The Senior Special Assistant to the Lagos State Governor on Health, Oreoluwa Finnih, in a video posted on Twitter, shows the monarch wearing a mask and dancing towards the palace with his entourage.
Finnih tweeted, “Our daddy is back home… Oba of Lagos, HRM, Alayeluwa Oba Rilwan Babatunde Osuolale Aremu Akiolu’s triumphant entry to Iga Idunganran Palace, today, Friday, January 1, 2021.”
Recall that the monarch was taken into safety by military officers when hoodlums, who had hijacked the #ENDSARS protests, stormed the place.
Lagos Island which house the Palace saw Police stations, the family house of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and other government properties destroyed during the protest.
