The Ondo Kingdom in Ondo State is preparing to mark the 20th anniversary of the coronation of its paramount ruler, Oba Victor Adesimbo Kiladejo, with a series of medical, cultural, educational, and community development activities. Organised by the Ondo Development Committee, these celebrations will run until December 24, 2026, and culminate in the annual Ekimogun Day Festival on December 26.

The event, themed '20 Years of Unprecedented Peace and Development in Ondo Kingdom', will feature a medical intervention dubbed the 'Festival of Surgeries', cultural performances, an inter-school debate competition, a public lecture, an art exhibition, a golf tournament, and the commissioning of legacy development projects. A notable highlight will be the conferment of traditional chieftaincy titles on two prominent Americans, media personality Sway Calloway and renowned American music industry executive and cultural advocate, Leila Steinberg, as well as other distinguished personalities.
