Property expert and socialite, Hakeem Alobo-Bakare has been honoured with a chieftaincy title as Otunba Bobajiro of Jogan-Orile by His Royal Highness Adeyemi Adekeye JP.
Jogan-Orile is in Yewa North local government area of Ogun State. Hakeem who used to be married to Tosin, one of the daughters of late Chief Molade Okoya-Thomas, was honoured for his exemplary life achievements and awesome potential for positive social transformation.
A detribalised Nigerian who came from a very humble background and rising to his present position, Hakeem’s life as a philanthropist and a social reformer is one worthy of emulation. So it came as no surprise when Oba Adekeye decided to bestow him with such honour.
The installation ceremony is one which is still being talked about long after it ended. The ceremony paraded most of the who is who in the business, political and corporate world all of whom were serenaded with music from the repertoire of Juju music Czar, King Sunny Ade.
