The very hardworking princess of the Source, owner and founder of the award winning fashion platforms Africa Fashion Week London and African Fashion Week Nigeria, Princess Ronke Ademiluyi, has just added another feather to her very illustrious wings. She was highly honoured very recently with the conferment of a very big title on her by His Royal Majesty, the Oonirisa of the Source, Ile-Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Babatunde Ogunwusi, Ojaja II. She was appointed the Heritage Ambassador of the Moremi Ajasoro legacy. The late Moremi Ajasoro is an historical figure of extraordinary dimensions in Ife whose intervention at a particular point in the history of her domain, Ile-Ife, saved her people, her domain and by and large their heritage from extinction.

So, with this title and great responsibility, Princess Ronke Ademiluyi has become the official representative of the great African heroine. As the Heritage Ambassador of Queen Moremi Ajasoro’s legacy, she was so appointed by the king   as part of his efforts at adding value to the Yoruba culture, which he believes, was also becoming extinct. Coming from the respected monarch’s palace, the appointment was made in recognition of Princess Ronke Ademiluyi’s efforts at promoting “the largest International gathering that celebrates fashion” and culture.
