The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Olayiwola Adeyemi III was the longest-reigning ruler of the kingdom since his great-grandfather, Oba Atiba Atobatele founded New Oyo in the 1830s.

A direct descendant of Oranyan (founder of the Old Oyo Empire), Adeyemi III was also a boxer before ascending the throne of his fathers after the Nigerian Civil War.

Crowned on November 18, 1970, while succeeding Oba Gbadegesin Ladigbolu I, Iku Baba Yeye, as he was known popularly, would rule for 51 years and 5 months. The longest reign since Alaafin Oluaso in the 1400s.

Adeyemi III joined his ancestors on Friday, April 22, 2022, at the Afe Babalola University Teaching Hospital, Ado Ekiti, the capital of Ekiti State in South-West Nigeria. He was 83.

I've always admired the OP's for his rational and almost historical approach on forensic dissection of social and political matters.

But Racoon,

How will you write on "Historical Facts About The Late Alaafin Of Oyo" without mentioning how he was cheated out by ungrateful companies and the Manufacturing Association of Nigeria who never gave him as much as an ambassadorship or as little as a recognition for being the greatest patron of the Bleaching Cream industry in Nigeria?

I won't stand for injustice neither will I stand for history being rewritten, so pardon me for bringing it here. But, this is for posterity sake.
