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.

Blessing in turn has taken to blocking many people and hurling insults at bloggers. She seems unrepentant, as she is still publicising her YouTube channel to tell her own side of the story.
What do you think about Blessing Okoro's saga?
