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...
Actress and twin mum, Bimbo Success has disclosed how Iyabo Ojo reached out to her shortly after posting about how senior colleague, Funke Akindele came through for her and her twins.
Esabod Global News recalls that earlier this week, Bimbo Success showered prayers on her colleague, Funke Akindele and recounted how one of her twin babies was saved from a severe cough.
In the lengthy post on her Instagram page, Bimbo Success said Funke Akindele, hearing how her baby was coughing during a phone conversation, requested her to bring the baby to a hospital in Lekki.
According to Bimbo Success, Funke Akindele took care of the hospital bills totally over a million Naira and shopped for her and her children.
Days after, Bimbo Success has now penned down an appreciation post to Iyabo Ojo as well. According to her, Iyabo Ojo reached out after her post on Funke Akindele and was a bit sad she wasn’t informed.

It is no longer News that Funke Akindele and Iyabo Ojo have been loggerheads for years now.
Esabod Global News recalls that on 9th December 2021, Eniola Badmus celebrated her 20 years in Nollywood, and many of her colleagues turned up for the event except Funke Akindele and as a result, Iyabo Ojo threw her a subtle shade.
There were speculations that Funke Akindele shunned the event to avoid any drama with Iyabo Ojo and Toyin Abraham following their long time beef.
In a lengthy post shared on her Instagram page, Iyabo Ojo said there had been rumours that someone she once helped in and outside the Nollywood industry finds great joy in constantly stabbing her and tried all her best to destroy her.
Iyabo Ojo said no human is above or beneath her because everyone is equal in the eyes of God, and she doesn’t pretend nor package anything for anyone.
According to Iyabo Ojo, she does not have any reason to hate anyone because she’s beyond blessed and contented with the little she owns.
Iyabo Ojo added that Funke Akindele should stop forming class or disassociating herself from certain people and avoid bringing people together only when needed.
Although Iyabo Ojo didn’t mention Funke Akindele’s name in the post, many netizens claimed the post was directed to Funke following her absence at Eniola’s party.
