Lagos based businesswoman and philanthropist, Princess (Dr.) Toyin Kolade has revealed that one of her biggest credits in the just concluded year 2021 was her installation into the exalted position of the Iyalaje Oodua Worldwide by the Ooni of Ife, his Imperial Majesty Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja II.

Kolade in her New Year message described the outgoing year as a complete book in her life with different chapters and episodes.

She wrote, "Life is a journey characterized by pockets of happenings, unbecomings, and envisions. The year 2021 is a complete book in my life, which featured different chapters of attainment and episodes of change.

"I gallantly entered the year 2021 as a renowned entrepreneur par excellence whom life has impacted many, and I'm majestically having a cruise out of the year as both business and cultural icon. The major highlight of the feat I achieved in the year was my installation as the Iyalaje Oodua Worldwide by His Imperial Majesty, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi (Ojaja II), the Ooni of Ife

"The eventuality of life has in some ways thrown stones at me, but I was able to build a castle from it through my resolve to bever let myself buried with dismal circumstances. Although the year was littered with life-threatening challenges, from an assassination attempt to a campaign of calumny against my personality, I came out shining like a gold out from the fire."

The foremost African chietancy title holder and CEO, Fisolak Global Resources Limited further highlighted some of the groundbreaking successes so far recorded within the shortest period of her installation, notably in the areas of touching lives and supporting businesses and the preservation of the Yoruba cultural heritage.

"Avidly passionate about bringing positive changes to lives, especially the underserved, it has been calling to improve the life of many, that which I achieved en mass in the year. Numerous initiatives were rolled out from my sleeves to different cohorts of the society, which is to give back to the society in my own coin.

"Reestablishing the disjoint that has held our cultural heritage and value to a fault, so many fortunes have been achieved in 2021, with the conception of my idea to bridge the gap between Oduduwa descendants at home and those in the diaspora. With this, several individuals have been able to trace their ancestral roots back to Yorubaland. This is evident at the 2021 Olojo Festival in Ile-Ife, where Yoruba sons and daughters came from the nook and cranny of the world to identify with their ancestral home.

"However, different projects were implemented through my office as the Iyalaje Oodua in a bid to enhance health and wealth amongst our people. As an emissary of the Aje deity, I'm always at the fore of pronouncing prosperity into people's lives, which in my bit I also support businesses.", she added, noting that the new year 2022 holds bigger prospects which according to her will among other things feature the Aje Heritage Summit, a cultural and entrepreneurial gathering of businesses and start-ups.

"This conscientious effort of mine has widely been recognized and as such won several awards to my cart.

"As 2022 is already upon us, we are in anticipation for the 2022 Aje Heritage Summit, which is geared at educating and empowering entrepreneurs on how to ace their businesses in this digital age. My mantra is 'becoming prosperous' and this is the calling that keeps calling me.

"So to every individual and organization that rode on this 2021 journey with me, you are special and I appreciate you deeply. For your rekindling support to key into my mission and vision, I say thank you.

"Let's do this again in 2022 as it promises to be a greater year for us all. There is no better yesterday for us and there shall never be. 

Until our best is better, we shall continue to grind for greatness.

Aje maa bukun fun gbogbo wa

Aseyi ase amodun.....Aseyi s'emi......Ase! Ase!! Ase!!!

Compliment of the season to you.", she concluded.
