Alaafin of Oyo, Lamidi Adeyemi Joins His Ancestors At 83 by LarryBeryl(op): 4:08am On Apr 23, 2022

The Alaafin of Oyo, Lamidi Adeyemi, has joined his Ancestors.

According to the Premium Times,Alaafin Adeyemi, the third from the Alowodu Ruling House, died in the late hours of Friday at the Afe Babalola University Teaching Hospital, Ado Ekiti.

The remains of the top Yoruba traditional ruler were brought to Oyo in the early hours of Saturday and traditional rites began.

He was 83 years old and the longest reigning Alaafin ever, having ruled for 52 years.

The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, is expected to make an official announcement upon receiving the report of the monarch’s passing from the Bashorun of Oyo, Yusuf Akinade, who will now lead Oyo before a new Alaafin is installed.

The boyfriends of his young wives are so happy now, they're coming to take their girls back home. The girls in return are so happy because finally they're free from boring sex, though they got the money and enjoy life to the fullest, but their womanhood really suffered alot.

Oyo town has lost its monarch, one of the best known in the country and a man with much influence, a first-class oba, the alafin Oba Adeyemi III. May God grant his family the fortitude to bear the loss.

What!
Well, it's with gratitude to GOD for a life well spent.
83 years is no joke.

Bros, like I'm confused now on the matter.
Another report said he is still alive and that the news of his demise is false.

Let's wait for more updates to the counter.
