Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode will today lead top dignitaries to declare open Kayokayo Festival, the historical highly revered religious gathering of the Epe people.

The one week festival, the traditional melting pot of Epe indigenes and a baby of Oba Shafiu Olatunji Adewale, Bamgbopa Eshilokun, the Olu Epe of Epe Kingdom, is an annual celebration of the historical arrival of Prince Kosoko, a famous Lagos King to Epe Kingdom in 1851.

The festival which places a lot of religious importance on its tourism value chain is seen by the people of the town which incidentally is the home town of Governor Ambode, as a classical look alike arrival of Noah in the Bible.
