Oba Sijuwade endowed the stool with honour, dignity and visibility. He was rich. Thus, through sheer philanthropy, he warmed himself to many indigenes. The monarch was also highly respected by the government. Before he ascended the throne, he had courted many eminent Yoruba.
Oba Sijuwade had a unique dress code. In the gathering of royal fathers, he was always the cynosure of all eyes. He was sociable. He was versed in Yoruba history. He was also humorous.
