Tsola Emiko has been crowned as the 21st Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse III.

Emiko, 37, was announced as the Olu of Warri designate in April after the death of Ogiame Ikenwoli, the 20th Olu of Warri.

The Olu of Warri designate was born in April 1984 to Godwin Toritseju Emiko, the late Ogiame Atuwatse II, and Gladys Durorike Emiko.

Emiko is the first Olu of Warri in over two centuries whose mother was alive to see him ascend the throne.

He is also the first Olu of Warri in five centuries to be married to a Benin woman.
