Culture / Re: Meet The 51 Kings Of Lagos (contacts) by HMSadeRenee: 12:40pm On Feb 04, 2023
[i]I am wondering where my grandfathers name is on this list. As he was a high Chief over as many as 50 plus Mosques and Churches and played a part as a mediator in the government. He is from Agege. He was one of the last living of the Kingsmakers transcending at age 100. About 5 years ago I could at least find his last interview ( that took place just days before he died) and before that I could search the internet an find his name in text books. For some reason I haven't been able to find him in much. I can not have my grandfather and his legacy be written out of history as he did so much great work in his time of life. Amongst being a High Chief and Kingsmaker he was also a master herbalist who had healed many that were severely ill. Yielding from the village of the tree-cutters in Agege he made his way to become well respected and achieved in his communities and government. From electrician to trusted politician. Please do not erase my grandfather the great Late Ancestor Alhaji Chief (Dr) Jimoh Akanji Abioye Aileru (JP); the Ekerin Afobaje of Agege Kingdom, Babalaje of Idimu Land, Gbobaniyi of Gbagura-Abeokuta, Jagunmolu Ijaiye kukudi-Egba, Abeokuta, Asiwaju Musulumi Agege Kingdom, Atunlushe Odua, Agege Kingdom (Member of Peace and Security and Secuirty) Agege Lagos State. Born May 10th 1915. If he doesnt belong on this list then where shall we place such and esteemed human being?
