As we welcome 2025, I extend my warmest greetings to the sons and daughters of our land, both at home and in the diaspora. Together with His Majesty, Ogiame Atuwatse III, we embrace this new year as a time for reflection—celebrating our unity, the richness of our culture, and our vast potential.
Our culture is the foundation of our future. Rooted in wisdom and tradition, it is our shared responsibility to preserve and nurture this invaluable legacy, ensuring it continues to guide us forward.
In the year ahead, let us invest in the growth of our most precious resource—our people. Through education, skills development, and meaningful opportunities, we unlock the potential for collective prosperity.
May 2025 bring renewed hope, peace, joy, and fulfilment to every home.
With Honour and Esteem,
Her Royal Majesty, Olori Atuwatse III
