At the inner court, attendance of notable elegbes were recorded while some Omo elegbe (persons having predetermined link with extra-terrestrial confraternity) offered music with dancing before the installation ceremony proceeded to the shrine dedicated to Esu, the Chief Enforcer of natural and divine laws.
The spirit of Esu deity was invoked to protect, guard the new Aare Egbe who was charged to be pious and morally upright.
The installation proper was conducted by Oba Obinrin Olosun of Ijesaland, Mama Osunlewa Ololade Senge while prayers were offered by Bamisegun (Dr) Ifafunso Omilegan.
