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...
Tee Mac Iseli, a renowned flutist and the son-in-law of presidential aspirant, Bola Ahmed Tinubu has cautioned Nigerians against voting for the APC aspirant.
Taking to his social media page, Tee Mac sent a message to Yemi Tinubu, wife of Tinubu, who he claimed is his cousin.
According to him, he cut off ties with the family after Tinubu sold Buhari to the nation in 2015.
Tee Mac questioned how qualified Tinubu is to run for the presidency, his background, his source of wealth, his real age, and lots more.
He wrote,
“Dear Yemi. Anybody can choose any candidate, but an intelligent person will ask himself question! Is he honest! Does he tell us the truth about his age, background and how he made his money! Is this man healthy enough at 86 to take up the task of a totally run down country? You see Tinubu is my in-law. His wife Remi is my cousin. Her Itsekiri mother and my Itsekiri mother are sisters. I have known Tinubu since the mid 80s personally and even arranged for him to stay in my step father’s house (Sir Mobilaji Bank-Anthony) in London when he went into exile. I stopped supporting him and stop family visits etc when he sold that Buhari to the nation in 2015. My advise to the nation is that this man is absolutely not qualified to become our next president. Respectfully Tee Mac Omatshola Iseli”.
Esabod Global news recalls former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, had said that Nigeria will burn under the presidency of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
He said this while reacting to the clergymen that graced the unveiling of Kashim Shettima as Tinubu’s running mate in the 2023 presidential election.
The clergymen were denied by the Christian Association of Nigeria, which had always kicked against Tinubu’s candidacy because he and his running mate are Muslims.
Reacting to photos of the clergymen, Omokri, in a post on social media, alleged that they were fake.
He wrote, “If Tinubu could not organise a successful unveiling of his running mate, and had to hire fake Christian ‘Bishops’, then how can he successfully govern Nigeria?
“Can Nigeria be safe at the hand of a man who can desecrate Christianity so wantonly? Nigeria will burn under Tinubu, because he obviously can’t manage our diversity. The only thing fuelling his ambition is desperation.
“His desperation will lead to our separation! We have not found a way to end the menace of unknown gunmen, we do not need unknown bishops too”.
