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.

Nollywood actress, Dorcas Shola-Fapson has expressed her thoughts on Nigeria’s local food, Amala (made from Yam flour).
The movie star via her social media page concluded that the food eaten more by the Yorubas is trash.
“Amala is disgusting. I don’t care who made it. Argue with your tongue” she opined.
Recall that a few weeks ago, Dorcas Shola-Fapson advised ladies to keep their relationship partners away from social media.
The actress, known for her role as ‘Sophie’ in MTV’s “Shuga”, took to her Snapchat story to give this piece of relationship advice.
According to her, September and October has taught her that the internet is where “ships go to sink”.
She said, “What I have learnt from September and October: Keep who you are sleeping with away from social media.
“Protect your orgasms, by any means necessary, ladies. It is imperative. The internet is where ships go to sink. It’s not for the soft-hearted, dears.
“Go on dates, ‘baecations’, surprise stuff; post ears, teeth and fingernails, but avoid showing these Zuckerberg streets your significant other.
“Fast food fingers will not even allow fine boy and fine girl to pepper us in peace.Before you know it, someone has a theory, or they know someone that knows someone that knows your brother’s sister in-law’s ex.
“But remember, privacy isn’t secrecy. If they don’t want to meet your friends, or introduce you to theirs, that’s a red flag. But you should make sure the friendship circle is a 3-dotted line.
“Enjoy your relationships and save the memories ‘for your eyes only’.”
