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...
Nigerian clergyman, Pastor Sam Adeyemi has reportedly relocated to the United States.
Blogger, Gossipmill gave reasons why the pastor and founder of Daystar Christian Center relocated overseas.
According to the blog, Pastor Sam relocated to have peace of mind because some certain individuals attempted to have him and others convicted for supporting the youths that took part in the EndSARS protest.
Though the case was thrown out of court, scars were left on the mind of the Daystar pastor.
“Life is too precious to be spent fighting other people. This is a lesson that people should learn and learn quickly. From every indication, notable author, public speaker, and senior pastor of Daystar Christian Center, Sam Adeyemi,knowns this lesson well. Those claiming to be in the know have reported that Adeyemi’s understanding of this lesson is the primary reason he is no longer in Nigeria but in the United States where dreams come true and governments aren’t petty.
October 20, 2020 will likely be recorded in Nigeria’s history books as a day that saw the heart of Nigeria crack. While there is still no consensus regarding whether military person’s shot and killed unarmed youths who were on a peaceful protest or not, the fact there is even a debate on the possibility of this is alarming. But that day was remembered in 2021 by many prominent Nigerians including Pastor Adeyemi. For someone who is actively involved in efforts to stimulate the potential of young Nigerians, it was all strange to see Pastor Adeyemi supporting the EndSARS movement in 2020 or remembering the October-20 incident. However, his support has allegedly cost him more than he is willing to admit to his followers.
As such, reports claim that he relocated to the US to have peace of mind. It is no secret that certain individuals attempted to have Pastor Adeyemi, among others, convicted for supporting the youths that took part in the EndSARS protest. Although the case was thrown out of court for his absolute absurdity, scars were left on the mind of the Daystar pastor.
And these scars motivated them to leave the country for ‘the owners’ Or so the reports claim. In truth, Pastor Adeyemi is still very committed to helping Nigerians now out of mediocrity and thoughtfulness. He is just doing it out of rather than within – the country. After all, a virtuous person can sacrifice their own life, but only mad people would let someone else assault their families. And Pastor Adeyemi is no mad man”.
Nigerians are surely having a field day reacting to the news.
