The new Queen Ajibola was ushered into Ile Oodua Palace in Ile-Ife at about 8pm last night by her mother and other members of her family from Kogi and Kwara states. They were first received by members of Ife Traditional Council led by the Obalufe of Ife, Oba Idowu Adediwura and Lowa Adimula of Ife, High-Chief Adekola Adeyeye who after necessary traditional and spiritual rites performed by the Isoros (Chief priests) presented her to the Ogunwusi family and her husband.

Erin-Ile, an ancient Yoruba town in Kwara state.
