He was welcomed by the large crowd and the crème de la crème of the Ilorin Muslim community, including title holders such as the former President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki; former CJN Alfa Belgore; Zanna of Ilorin, Engr. Lanre Sagaya; Mufti of Ilorin, Sheikh Suleiman Farouk Onikijipa; and many others.
In the Governor's entourage were the Turaki of Ilorin and Senator representing Kwara Central, Salihu Mustapha; House of Representatives members Ahmad Yinka Aluko and Mukhtar Shagaya; Kwara House of Assembly Leader Hon. Magaji and his colleagues from the House; Chief of Staff to the Governor, Prince Abdulkadir Mahe; other cabinet members; and several party leaders and chieftains.
