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.

Nollywood actor Yomi Fabiyi has penned down a heartfelt tribute to his mother as he recalls her death on 12th January 2018.
Taking to his Instagram page to share a phto of himself and his mother, Yomi Fabiyi noted that nothing could replace his mother in his heart or the love he has for her.
Speaking further, Yomi Fabiyi said he still feels his mother’s love and protection till date, adding that he had frequently benefitted from his mother’s good deeds to others.
In his word: On this day in 2018 you left us MUM. Nothing can ever replace you in my heart or the love I have for you. You are my SMALL god. On a good day, mothers should clock 90 or so before death can strike. Mothers suffer too much on kids, spouses, family, heartbreaks etc this cause some to leave earlier because of all these and denying them chance to full enjoyment to the fruit of their labours. But I can’t question God.
I feel your motherly love and protection everyday till now. I have benefit from your good deeds to other people when alive. Some extreme dangers, blackmails, lies, evils and battles you keep fighting and saving me from. I love you maami, continue to REST IN POWER. Abiyamo toto. Truly, oku olomo o kin sun.
If you ever come back to me through any of female children that I will birth in future, I will name her FOLAWE, IYABO, MORENIKEJI in your honour and memory. I will never forget you. Love u and till we meet to part no more, I love you mummy mi. And hope pe gbogbo e n zeh nibi ti e wa? Se awon kolu nbo cardi? E ma bizza bizza
YomiFabiyi. Your Loving son.
