Shockwaves are reverberating across Yorùbáland and the global Yorùbá diaspora following the sudden death of the Baba Ọba (King’s Father) of the famed Oyotunji African Village in South Carolina, USA. The late Baba Ọba, Lukman Arohunfale, a revered socialite and traditionalist, passed away under circumstances already sparking fierce controversy. His death comes just days after he publicly accused the newly installed Alaafin of Oyo, His Imperial Majesty Oba Akeem Adéyẹmọ Owoade, of allegedly ordering his courtiers to beat him mercilessly during a recent courtesy visit to the Oyo palace in Nigeria. In a widely circulated voice recording, the deceased recounted how what was meant to be a simple homage turned violent.

He also pointed out that his fans should learn on how to give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what truly belongs to him.
The Ayoo hit maker went on to reveal that he has been receiving text messages from unknown people threatening his life.
According to the popular artiste, his lyrics reflect the word of God.
According to him, the world is a crazy place but no one can hurt him because he is above such petty threats.
He says;
“If you don’t know who God is, all I want to say is that give what belongs to Cesar to Cesar and give what belongs to God to God. Let’s face facts in the world. In my life nobody can threaten me because I owe nobody. The only person I owe in this world because I owe him my life,” the dancehall singer said.
He then went further to say:
Today Shatta Wale, tomorrow that, you are all my dogs. I came to this world to preach the word of God through my music. Do you know how many times I sing trying to advise people about things? The world is a crazy world, when you are not crazy you can’t live in this world. Nobody can threaten me. Those people threatening me, sending me text messages; let me tell you that none of that can work on me because I have seen worst,”
