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.

Nollywood actress Moyo Lawal who was recently in the news for allegedly having an affair with a rich politician from the northern part of the country has expressed her position on dealing with a cheating partner.
In a recent interview with The Sun, the curvy actress who had been quite outspoken on social media since the controversial news went viral said she sees nothing wrong in having a cheating partner.
“Yes, I can you forgive and take back a cheating partner. In fact, I don’t see my man cheating as a big deal. My own is don’t come and be pretending that you are “one holy than thou ” or neglect your duties. Just cheat on me with sense and use protection.”
Asked if she thinks her career is one of the reasons she is not married yet, Moyo affirmed: “It was more because before I started my skincare business a couple of years ago, I didn’t have a stable income (in the sense that with acting even though I was working regularly, I couldn’t actually make a financial budget for the year) I wasn’t about to start a family without being able to plan properly.
Nothing terrifies me more than bringing children into this world to suffer.Stardom “almost”deprived me of a chance to have a regular life but when I started my business, me sef became a regular person. So, nobody can use stardom to blackmail me again (laughs).”
Can Moyo Lawal marry a much older man? Well, without mincing words, the actress said: “If he ticks my list, why not if not? I think it might even be easier for me because marriage is a job you have to be willing to work on for the rest of your life. Hence, if he is much older, it might be a lot more easier respecting his decisions, opinions and trusting him not to lead us astray because he has lived many lifetimes.
In fact, a Husband material for me is definitely someone who has sense and empathy. Treats the waiter like a colleague, has deep family values but he is not society-driven ( what will people say kind of person). Then he has to be crazy to a very large extent (Covers face).”
