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.

Toyin Abraham’s husband, Kolawole Ajeyemi has reacted to the defamation of his wife on social media by actress Lizzy Anjorin.
Recall that Lizzy Anjorin had called Toyin Abraham a bastard and all sorts in a video after she claimed she couldn’t caution her fans who are over the internet uncouth.
Reacting to this, Kolawole Ajeyemi expressed his displeasure over this and took to his Instagram page to share some word of wisdom.
See his post below;
IN THE YEAR 1997 WHEN I JOINED THE FILM INDUSTRY I GATHERED ALOT OF EXPERIENCE AND TRAINING UNTIL TILL NOW THAT THE WORLD BECOMES A PLACE OF SOCIAL MEDIA, I COULD REMEMBER THERE WAS NOT INSTAGRAM TWITTER AND FACEBOOK OR WHATSOEVER THEN AND EVEN IF THERE WAS, ITS NOT GENERALLY USED AS WE DO THIS DAYS.
CELEBRITIES THOSE DAYS ARE LIKE SMALL GODS WHICH PEOPLE DONT JUST HAVE ACCESS TO AS IT IS NOW, THAT WAS BECAUSE THERE WAS NOTHING LIKE SOCIAL MEDIA THEN. BABA EDA ONILEOLA THAT DID OGBORIELEMOSO IS FROM MY HOME TOWN OGBOMOSO I COULDN’T ACCESS HIM DESPITE I WANTED TO JOIN THE INDUSTRY. OUR WHOLE LIFE IS NOW ON THE INTERNET.
MANY FAMILIES ARE RUINED BECAUSE OF SOCIAL MEDIA, MANY MARRIAGES AND LIFES ARE SHATTERED BECAUSE OF SOCIAL MEDIA. INTERNET IS VERY GOOD BUT AT THE SAMETIME INTERNET AS DONE MORE EVIL THAN GOOD. I COULD REMEMBER THEN IN THAT YEAR WHEN I WANTED TO JOIN THE INDUSTRY UNCLE YOMI FASLANSO @GONE NIYOMIFASHLANSO1 ASKED ME WHAT MY MOTIVES OF JOING THE INDUSTRY AND I SAID AM HERE SO THAT I CAN TEACH PEOPLE, THEN HE SAID WHAT TRAINING DO I HAVE THAT MAKES ME THINK I CAN TEACH PEOPLE, I FINALLY REPLIED AND SAID TO HIM I WANT TO TEACH PEOPLE JUST LIKE ONE OF THE MOVIES YOU FEATURED IN TITLED ASE ORO DID.
WE ARE MEANT TO TEACH PEOPLE HOW TO LIVE BUT TO MY GREATEST SURPRISE WE SUPOSED TEACHERS OF GOOD THOUGHTS AND GOOD DEEDS ARE NOW THE ONES MISLEADING THE NATION WITH THE USE OF THE SOCIAL MEDIA. AUNTY FAITHA @FAITHIAWILLIAMS ONCE SAID AND I QUOTE “WE HAVE MORE LIFE TO LIVE THAN SOCIAL MEDIA LIFE” MY PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE OF FILM INDUSTRY IS THAT IS A CITADEL OF LEARNING AND EXPERIENCE FOR A BETTER LIFE. WE OUGHT TO HAVE USE SOCIAL MEDIA FOR MORE USEFUL AND IMPACTFUL THINGS AND NOT THIS MISBEHAVIOUR. WE ARE CALLED CELEBRITIES BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE LOOK UP TO US AND WANT TO BE LIKE US.
WHY ARE WILL MISLEADING THIS PEOPLE, WE ARE MEANT TO BE GOOD TEACHERS AND NOT BAD INFLUENCE TO THE SOCIETY. PLEASE AND PLEASE LETS HAVE A CHANGE MIND SET TO DO GOOD, IF NOT FOR ANYTHING FOR THE FACT THAT PEOPLE ARE LOOKING UP TO US IN SO MANY WAYS OF LIFE GOD BLESS YOU ALL 😞 🤝
