Sanwo-Olu, who was highly elated at Runsewe’s promotion of Nigeria’s indigenous fashion and on this day in the full revelation of the beauty of the south-south dress pattern, praised Runsewe for always putting Nigeria first in his manner of speech, public conduct, dress sense and above all consistent call for the best of Nigerian culture and tradition.

The governor, who received Runsewe and select members of the technical committee on NAFEST insisted that Lagos State will bring a new trend to the hosting of NAFEST in November, noting that the unity of Nigeria should be paramount in the effort of using culture as a veritable avenue of promoting national unity and cohesion.
