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. Although the Baba Ọba had reportedly battled ill health in the past year, growing insinuations suggest that the alleged physical assault may have aggravated his condition, ultimately leading to his untimely death. The palace in Oyo recently denied that s...
She came to facebook to expose infidelity in numerous homes, who doesn’t want a faithful marriage? Yes, she your conscience. She spoke out against Ajumobi heartless governance, who doesn’t know he was a radical politician? Beeni, conscience e ni.
She spoke about community leaders that are not acting well as middle-men between the poor masses and politicians. Ain’t we all craving for our voices to be heard? Oh yes, she’s our conscience.
She speaks about any wrongdoings, irrespective of your status or personal relationship with her. Don’t we all feel like calling out our evil friends atimes? She’s surely your conscience. During the process of cleaning the society and awakening our inner consciousness, she gathered so many enemies. They waged series of wars against her yet, she survived. She fought and conquered them all so they decided to use another weapon (court), but this same Jagunjagun efusetan walked majestically into the courtroom and defended herself. She diluted their plan (jail) and rendered it useless.
No, you do not deserve to rejoice, search your conscience and it wlll tell the truth.
You could sense she was already planning to drop the current case but decided to press on because she could not keep quiet for a rag like Abike. Yes, she would rather keep quiet based on court order than to be gaged by a destitute. It has never happened and it will never happen. I am not sure whether the Oba is the one sending Abike out to speak on his behalf, in fact, I doubt he will want to do such thing. But whoever paying her to stop Esabod is a waste of money seasoned with dragging the kings name in the mud. In a nutshell, we are satisfied with the turn of event.
Esabod deserves all the accolades for continually defeating those elements that always gang up to bring her down. An old woman constantly faced with top politicians, rulers, bloggers, and the world, yet she’s still standing. Now she has released another lesson into the world. Stand up for your right and do not feel threatened by the rich, the court is there to vindicate you.
Esamoney on the throne 💪💪💪💪
