The Golden Jubilee of Her Royal Majesty Queen Vickylextar & 21st Birthday of Prince Josiah

 

Ottawa, Canada – July 13, 2024

In a magnificent celebration that epitomized grandeur and regal splendor, the Hilton Lac Leamy played host to the Golden Jubilee of Her Royal Majesty Queen Vickylextar, marking her 50th birthday, alongside the 21st birthday of Prince Josiah. The evening unfolded as a vibrant tapestry of tradition, unity, and joyous festivity, and as it is customary to Her Royal Majesty, several moments highlighting individuals who invest in their peers and impact their communities – all leaving an indelible impression on all who attended.

 

The event commenced with the arrival of esteemed guests, serenaded by soothing background music that set a serene yet anticipatory tone. Her Royal Majesty Queen Vickylextar and Prince Josiah, radiant in their regal attire, took photos with the guests, capturing the essence of the evening.

 

Following the welcome cocktail, the Royal greetings ceremony ensued, during which the Queen personally welcomed guests. This intimate moment was beautifully interspersed with photo opportunities, immortalizing the warm exchanges and heartfelt smiles.

 

 

A Grand and Royal Entrance

 

One thing that never disappoints in Omanye events, is the excellence in execution of all things.  After guests were ushered to their seats, anticipation reached its peak with the Royal Procession: Flag bearers, Royal Executives and Royal Cabinet members entered the room and lined up at the front as everyone rose in respect.

 

Then, in an all-majestic entrance, Her Royal Majesty Queen Vickylextar stunned the crowd, followed by the Royal family and other Royals from the diaspora. Once the Queen was seated, the audience followed suit, the music fading into the background, signalling the beginning of an extraordinary evening.

 

After an introduction of Royals from the diaspora and other notable figures, the night was filled with stirring performances and serenades honouring the Queen and celebrating the Prince. The exquisite talents of dance troupe Artists in Motion were showcased in two captivating sets of an eclectic mix of traditional and contemporary music. 

 

 

Royal Knighting and Investiture 

Another feature of this magnificent celebration was the knighting by sword of Royal Ambassadors and Executives. Madam Leelai M. Kpukuyou, Mrs. Lisa Saint-Georges, Mr. Emmanuel Coffie, Ms. Nancita Kapi, Mrs. Nina Coffie, and Ms. Sabrena Ossom were honoured for their exceptional contributions and dedication to the Omanye Royal Kingdom’s vision and mission and received the high honours of the titles of Ladies and Sirs.

 

Immediately after, Her Royal Majesty introduced her son, Prince Dr. Kendrick Carroll, during his Royal investiture, which was marked by the presentation of traditional regalia, including gold bracelets, necklaces, and a crown. The beautiful new Princess-in-waiting was also presented to all royal guests, as both were celebrated with a triumphant trumpet fanfare. 

 

Community Awards followed, honouring members of the community who impact and elevate their peers and whose values align with those of the esteemed Omanye Royal Kingdom. This year’s recipients were Mr Moses Abayomi Pratt and Mrs Grace Udodong. Dr. Wale Idris Ajibade and His Highness Papa Paul Jones Eganda 1 joined Her Royal Majesty Queen Vickylextar to deliver the awards, and this segment of the evening was sealed with a surprise award to the Queen from Strive Mental Health, The Strive Stellar Leadership & Dedication Award, for her dedication to investing in others, helping in programs and leadership development. This added an emotional and reflective layer to the proceedings, as Queen Vickylextar shared how beautiful it is to see the people under her wing grow to get to a point where they in turn can honour others.

 

 

Grand Finale and Unveiling of the Cake

 

The evening’s pinnacle was the glorious unveiling of the birthday cake. A symbolic 50 cakes for 50 years were unveiled as the crowd serenaded the celebrants with a harmonious Happy Birthday song. The Queen, accompanied by her Royal household, danced towards the cake stage that supported several towers of cake and crystals, and each table later received a cake to also cut and share. This preceded one of the most beautiful moments of the night: the majestic performance of the Hallelujah Chorus by the Royal Household as a choir, directed by none other than the Queen herself. The evening concluded with a second procession to a traditional Ga dance, opening the vibrant dance floor, where guests engaged in the Electric Slide, cha-cha, and Jerusalem line dance, celebrating with fervent energy all night!

 

 

The Golden Jubilee of Her Royal Majesty Queen Vickylextar was a spectacular testament to her remarkable journey and enduring influence. It was a night that celebrated unity, heritage, and the boundless joy of community, leaving an everlasting legacy in the hearts of all who attended. It was the perfect bow tied around 50 years of WOW!
