Osun Marks International Monument and Sites Day

  In commemoration of this year’s International Monument and Sites Day, the management team and serving corpers in the Ministry of Information, Home Affairs, Tourism and Culture paid a courtesy visit
to the Palace of the Adagba of Iyanfoworogi and the Oduduwa groove both in Ile-Ife.
Speaking, the Adagba of Iyanfoworogi, Oba Adebolu Fatunmise Adegoke I called on the people not to neglect African beliefs and culture for the western religion saying culture is life and that culture is well established.
