Cultural figures, media personalities and diaspora voices gather in Chelsea for an intimate evening bridging London and Ìjẹ̀bú-Ode
Princess Adesile hosted The Culture Table, London Edition, a private dinner at Nova Chelsea on 30th April 2026, bringing together a select group of cultural figures, founders, media personalities and diaspora voices ahead of her return to Nigeria for Ojude Oba 2026.
Delivered by ABPMX, a strategic and project management company, the evening was designed as a cultural bridge between London and Ìjẹ̀bú-Ode, creating space for meaningful dialogue around heritage, identity and the evolving role of African culture on the world stage.
Guests included HRH Princess Mordeun Adedoyin-Solarin, granddaughter of HRM Oba Adedoyin Anoko II, Akarigbo and Paramount Ruler of Remo Kingdom; Dr Adesegun Adeosun, also known globally as KING SMADE, founder of SMADE Entertainment Group and co-founder of Afro Nation; Otunba Leke Ajayi, the Adétiléwá of Ìlódó, Ìjẹ̀bú Ìmuṣin; actress and post-traumatic growth advocate Victoria Inyama; beauty entrepreneur Adeola Adeyemi (Diiadem) of The Real Housewives of Lagos; content creator and fashion influencer Seyi Classic, widely known as Uncle Shay of London; and Anna-Marie Benedict, Press Director at Africa Fashion Week London, alongside other leading Nigerian voices shaping positive cultural narratives.
The evening centred on a curated dinner experience and an open Culture Conversation, exploring representation, storytelling and the power of the diaspora in shaping global narratives.
Speaking during the evening, Princess Adesile shared:
“Culture is not just something we inherit. It is something we must intentionally preserve, elevate and share with the world.”
“What we are building is a bridge that allows our heritage to travel, to be understood, and to be celebrated on its own terms.”
The London Edition marks a key moment in 
the lead-up to Ojude Oba 2026, where Princess Adesile continues to redefine visibility as a leading female equestrian figure at one of Nigeria’s most internationally recognised cultural festivals.
The Culture Table will continue in Ìjẹ̀bú-Ode ahead of the festival, before culminating there for Ojude Oba itself, forming part of a broader cultural movement led by Princess Adesile, in partnership with ABPMX, to amplify Yoruba heritage and create spaces where African culture is celebrated and deeply understood on the global stage.
