Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke, attended music legend Ebenezer Obey-Fabiyi’s 82nd birthday celebration in Lagos in his armored Lexus LX 600 SUV, valued at over N700 million. This marked a shift from his previous use of a customized armored Cadillac Escalade SUV. Governor Adeleke joined other prominent figures at the DECROSS Gospel mission on April 3rd to honor Obey, whom he praised as a living legend for his morally rich music that impacted millions.
A video circulating captured the moment Adeleke arrived at the event in his official vehicle, emphasizing his support for and recognition of Obey’s contributions to Nigerian music and culture. Adeleke expressed appreciation for Obey’s influence and acknowledged the importance of celebrating such influential figures.
The Governor’s switch from the Cadillac Escalade to the Lexus LX 600 reflects a continued commitment to security and luxury in official transportation. Starting his tenure with the Escalade, known for its blend of opulence and ruggedness, Adeleke now opts for the equally impressive and secure Lexus LX 600, equipped with extensive armor plating and bulletproof glass.
As the uncle of renowned musician Davido, Adeleke assumed office on November 27th after winning the July 16, 2022 gubernatorial election. His presence at events like Obey’s birthday celebration underscores his engagement with cultural and artistic spheres, aligning with his efforts to promote and support various aspects of Osun State’s cultural heritage.
